Hi @Mistertemps! She still has a lot of white pistils and I think she's still fattening up, so I would wait a few days before starting to flush. But yeah the idea is to flush once the trichomes are ending their maturation process so this shouldn't be long now! Happy growing & enjoy your harvest! 👊

Looks great so far 😎👌 about your question:its hard to tell with the picture. But for me it looks like you could wait 1 more week 👍 however, it depends on what properties of amber you prefer ✌️

People usually wait for a bit of amber to start their flush. With that in mind though there was a study done that showed flushing the last 2 weeks doesn't do a whole hell of a lot. If you wanna save nutes just feed half strength. https://atrium.lib.uoguelph.ca/xmlui/bitstream/handle/10214/12125/Stemeroff_Jonathan_201712_Msc_with_erratum.pdf?sequence=8&isAllowed=y pages 58-60 show graphs that show nutrient comparison levels. overall it was a difference of less than 5% between flush and no flush which isn't enough to change anything.

Slow bud growth Hey everybody would anybody have an idea on why my bud growth seems stunted? Like maybe it's just genes and it's a slower bloomer or what? That plant imho seems fairly healthy but it's just producing flowers at such a slow rate compared to its sister sitting right next to it

Week 5 of flower starts tomorrow and I think my buds aren’t fattening up like I want? They have started to a little in the past couple days but I’m wondering if I’ve got my nutes right or if they need more or more volume? Any good suggestions? I updated my nutes on my diary.

Why are my buds so small?Why are my buds so small? Could it be my nutrients? The thing is both plants have small buds. Almost like this is the natural size of the buds. Any insight as to why they are so small would be greatly appreciated. Check my nutrient schedule. Thanks for any help.

Too many buds because of LST? A yield full of popcorn buds??Should I cut off more buds to get a higher yield? I am afraid, that she will develope too many popcorn buds. Or is she looking allright and I can get a good yield without stressing her any more? (She is in her third flowering week)

Possible Popcorn Buds?I am concerned that the buds are still small and may come out as popcorn buds. BUT, this is my first grow. Just added week 6 to grow diary with pics. Just FYI, there is some leaf downturn in this photo. It was taken right after feeding and I always get that for an hour or so.

Plant not growing anymore Yes I made a mistake with bottled nutrients and burned her. She is in nutrient lockdown and im flushing her for a week. But she is not growing anymore. Leaves are all curled up and brown on tips because of nute burn. My question is should I leave her or should I cut her?
