If you're growing photoperiod you change the diary when you change to 12-12 If you're growing automatic when you see the pistils growing.

@Bergbok
, I would say when you first start seeing signs of flower. I wouldn’t wait till flowers are forming. Once I see flower signs, pistils forming etc, that’s week 1 flower. Good luck Growmie 😎🌱💨

Trichome Advice--Cloudy enough to stop giving nutes??
I'm trying to figure out when I should stop giving nutes. I've read 1-2 weeks before harvest when the trichomes turn Amber. My question is: Based on these trichomes, when would you stop giving nutes? Do they look cloudy enough to stop now? Or should I wait until I see amber?

Harvest/Partial Harvest tomorrow, or leave it unattended for 7 days over Christmas?
So let me preface this by saying that I'd LOVE to come home to some dried weed, ready for curing, but I don't want a subpar bud. My original plan was to chop tomorrow before I leave town, but many trichs still look clear (I think), w/ a few amber. Advice? More pix/info in diary!

Flushing before harvest? Really? Any good science evidence to support or just commonly held belief?
Is flushing the last two weeks something that really affects flavor/quality of harvested flower? Consensus among websites support it as real.... (But plenty of commonly held beliefs such as you shouldn't swim within 30 minutes after eating aren't true.)

Totally random question.
Random question... When do you start day 1? Is it the day the seed germinates? The day the seed pops above ground? The day the girls have enough leaves for nutes and a regular environment? Just broadening my knowledge. Thanks, guys!
