First grow trying to figure out flush/harvest

HoldMyBeerstarted grow question 5y ago

How close am I to harvest? I’m at Day 67 on a Zkittles Og Autoflower still giving nutrients using a hydro farm drip ring set up. Should I begin flush or give her more nutrients? Last feed was 850 ppm and I use the advanced nutrients expert chart.

You need to check trichomes, should be mostly milky with 20-30% Amber for couchlock effect. Get a 60x magnifier or jewellers loupe. Looks pretty close to harvest but need to check trichomes on buds to be sure

Is my weed rotting? Please help and thank you in advance, I am starting to become a little paranoic I am curing my weed and I found some small bugs on the buds (mostly flies), there were not a lot but I am a bit worried since also the color is starting to look a bit strange, or are maybe only the amberish trichomes? Also could bug go inside pistils? I found this strange thing

How to know when calyxes are swollen?When I look at my buds, the calyxes look big to me - however, due to inexperience, I'm not sure exactly what a 'swollen calyx' looks like. Do the calyxes here look swollen to you? Also, if anyone could guesstimate how far from harvest I am, it would be great! Trich pix in diary~

Defoliate or not ?Do I need to defoliate her harder ? I Think some of the buds are blocking the sun out of others, I am afraid the buds won't be fat. I am also afraid if I defoliate wrongly she could lose a lot of photosynthesis. What do you guys think ? I should try to lst her down a lot more

How should I get the buds a lil more crispy? Its not wet but its not dry like it should be...After cutting, I cured my buds for 14 days on 15-18°C and 45-65% humidity. Then when they were really crispy on the outside but sticky on the inside I put them in jars. Now its another 14 days later and the buds don't feel as crispy as before even tho I opened them 2 times daily?
