DILLIGAFanswered grow question 5 years ago Hi mate 8 weeks is the minimum for properly matured buds if you want the trichomes to be fully opaque with a few amber. This will give you the full effect the breeders were intending you get when marketing their seeds. I would not flush until the trichomes are at that stage then flush for 2-7 days and harvest . Hope this helps 😀
