When should I begin flushing with florakleen? I have been told at 5% amber on the trichromes, in soil for maybe a week or two, will put you at 15% perfect for harvest. when is the right time to begin flushing, and when is the right time to harvest?
Hi brother!! you need to give them a very nice flush before, like the triple of water that your pots can take in litres. Very nice grow!!! Check this out for all the info you need http://www.growweedeasy.com/harvest
As soon as 100% of the trichomes are milky and some begin to become amber, you can start the Flush. I only grow in potting soil and 15 days is the minimum required if you want a good taste.
Even a little more, like 20 days, is very good with potting soil. Everything depends on trichomes at this time.
20% / 25% amber is a very good ratio for most hybrids
Good luck for the end my friend
Personally I prefer to start the wash when I see the 5-10% amber tricomas , I give a generous watering with a finisher like the one you use and then wait for the soil to be well dry about 12 days later. the ideal of the cut is when the tricomas are between 40% amber, although of course this varies according to the own tastes
