Timing a 7d flush โ will it over-ripen if I begin flushing when it's ready for harvest and keep it for 1 more week on flush juice?
Need advice on timing a 7d flush. My 2nd grow, both (Sativas) flowered signif. longer than advertised (+2-4 weeks). To know when to start flushing, do you visually estimate when a plant is no more t 1wk from harvest? If I start flush when it's ripe for harv, too late or ok?

Calculating Proper Runoff Numbers
Before I watered plants today the Ph was 6.0 and 1,000 ppm. I added nutrient solution of 6.2 and 1,000 ppm to each plant until runoff. Runoffs were 1,300 to 1,700 range. Ph was 5.9. Is this in the ballpark. If I add 1,000 ppm to existing 1,000 ppm and get less is that right?

Tell friends
It's my first hydroponic planting. Cookie R2 has 9 nodes in total (I even thought it would die) The biggest mistake is making the cold water alternate to normal temperature, causing the plants to stunt. I thought for a long time that the trunk was so small.

Switching to flowering nutrients (autoflower)
Just wondering if anyone has any ideas as to when I should start switching these critical purple autoflowers to flowering nutes? As I understand it should be a few weeks after preflowers start? Hard to tell when vertical growth slows when doing LST. This is my first grow ever!

Lighting adjustment for temperature
Tomorrow is going to be a very difficult day to control temperature in the tent. 35C and no aircon. How long can I get away with keeping the lights off? They are on a 20/4 schedule now that the bigger one is flowering. I may be able to dim it very low if It still isnโt too hot

To prune or not to prune?
Hello guys. A beginner question here. Should I prune these "inner" branches or should I let them grow? They are getting a lot of light but I don't know if it's worth letting them bloom. If I have to cut them when would be the best time? I'll leave this question open until Friday.
