When to start flushing?

How long before I should flush for harvest? The buds are still small but the trichomes seem to be slightly cloudy, pics make them look a little more so than just with a magnifying glass, I'd like to flush for 2 weeks.

I usually start to flush when I start seeing amber tricomb heads. You are on the cusp of doing so but not just yet. Read the strain information from your breeder. If it's 8 weeks flush at 6. 9 weeks flush at 7 and so on and so forth.

If you must flush, I would say start in about 2 weeks, maybe 3. My personal recommendation is don't flush, the science doesn't support this outdated "technique".

Assuming this is an 8 week strain, I would start flushing in a week or two. Make sure you look at the triches on the flower, not the sugar leaf.

Mine is similar, I've read that indica you would give 8 week. flowering so flush around week 6? Which sativa 10 weeks so 8? I would search around for your strain and compare when they do thier flushes as each strain and environment also effects it. ie increasing night hours changes it as well.

Hi, You still Have a little more to go. Red curled up pistils and creamy almost plastic looking Thricomes will be a good sign to harvest. Leave the thricomes to ripe a little longer (amber caps) and you'll get Aa more sedative effect. Happy harvest!!!!
