1 Plant good nugs 4 Plants are airy flaky not dense at all.
My last grow had 5 plants going & overwatered once & believe had some runoff that the plants sat in. I suspect this damaged them pretty significantly. One of the plants came out amazing, nice dense strong nugs. The other 4 plants have airy nugs not dense at all. What caused this?

How long how loooong
How long before harvest time? Do I just feed water, lower nutes or feed as usual? Trichs are cloudy to clear. Want to harvest when cloudy with some amber. It's an autoflower and feeding with biobizz.

Harvest time
It's been around 8 weeks since flowering and to me the buds seem ready. However, these white pistils keep appearing and makes me think thank it's not ready. What do you think ? I also started watering just plain water, but i think i should go back to adding nutrients.

Deficiency or Genetics
Would you guys guess the yellowing on these leaves is more natural coloration from genetics or do you guys see something more? Plant is definately small but seems to be healthy and buds keep growing.

When drying should I snip some of the leaves off after a few days?? I feel the way they hug over the nugs the will keep moisture in them. I did nothing but hang them when I picked them.

what you think?
Don't have the equipment to check tricomes clearly. This is the best I can do. Hoping to harvest real soon. Have amber tricomes but only a few on each bud. Don't wanna be to late or to early

Trichomes and time to harvest
Did check on trichomes in week 12 (7 flower). Distribution was something like 0% amber,10% milky, 40% cloudy, 30% slightly cloudy, 20% clear. If my goal is 10-20% amber, how many days does it take usually to get there from here? Rough estimates are welcome. I'm a newbie.

Flush time or wait?
Not sure if the pics are detailed enough, but I'm curious if someone can help me out with when to flush? I don't feel like they are quite there yet, but this is my first grow, so I'm not quit sure how "cloudy" is "cloudy enough" to start flushing. Anyone have any insights?
