Very old Ata Bloombastic
I own a very old (around 8 years) bottle of Ata Bloombastic. It should not expire, but it looks dark brown and dense (seriously, it looks like liquid s**t but still smells good) but on commercials it appears to be more green than brown. Should I risk it or change it?

Flushing
I fed nutrients instead of water flush to a plant in week 8 of flowering, the plant itself is ready to harvest. Should I wait a week to flush or will it be ok to harvest and dry as I do not want to wait much long it as the plant is in the perfect sweet spot to harvest.

Hey. Can someone help me? I don't know if it's normal that my leaves look like this. What could it be? Not enough water? Maybe it's natural during flowering that the leaves change. It's happening in 4 pots out of 8. Maybe too strong light at the top? Or maybe just a deficiency or excess.

Tap water is 0.5 EC, and 8.1 - shall I get an RO system or can I use pH Down (using Canna Coco)?
Does my tap water with 0.5 EC, pH 8.1 warrant the use of an RO system with Canna Coco nutrients or shall I use Canna pH Down to bring it down to 6.3?

Ready for a flushing ?
As I don't have any magnifying glass or microscope to check the trichomes, I'm relying on the color of the pistils to evaluate the maturity of the plants. However, as it is my first grow, I don't really now if they are ready for a flushing. What do you think ?
