The vendor suggests 9-10 weeks until harvest. I am currently in week 7 and looking at predominantly cloudy trichomes at the moment. When do you guys usually start flushing and for how long?

Flushing is a bit of a hot topic. Some people do it, some don't. I am one who does not believe in the methodology behind flushing. But I respect people who do like to do it. If you want to start flushing your plants, aim for 1-2 weeks before your chop. Just water them with PH'd water till runoff if achieved and your good to go. their are products desinged to help remove excess salts in the flush and this might be something your interested it. From other questions like this that I've read, most people just use water. As for vendor guided timelines of when to harvest, They are more or less suggestions, you have to go off of what your plant is telling you. They are normally correct in a ball park range sense. Best to check your trichomes for a more accurate indicator of when its ready. I like a little bit of amber 10% some like more, upwards of 30%. More amber=more sedative couch lock. I think that's because the THCV turn into CBN Best of Luck

the white hairs have to become a bit browner to ripen, and the flush is when its ripened (70/80% brown) around 5 days just look at the leaves and care for mold tho

i would give them max 2 week and then flush. About flushing...If you are growing organic,you can think to not flush but since your nutriments are mineral i suggest you to flush. Doing this,you have only to gain in quality,a better taste for example 😉👊🏽 Good luck 🍀

if you're in organics you might not need to. if you use some chemical nutrients you could start your flush two weeks to intended harvest date or scope Trichomes and onset of amber could be your flush marker
