Hi there, 1-2 weeks and you should be at 10%,just keep an eye on them as some strains tri-comes develop faster than others. Hope this helps.

Would maintain normally water amounts. Till finish. It will ripen more as it fades.

I’ve heard of some auto flowers never displaying amber trichomes and the plant will actually hermie due to being left to long waiting for them to change colour. The leaves around your bud will give you an indication when she’s close as they start to give up all their nutrients to the buds as well as the plant taking in less water and completely stop growing .

Many nutrients brands recommend to stop feeding when trichomes are 50% clear 50% white. At this point it may take 1 or 2 weeks until harvest time. By cutting nutrients off, your plant will draw on their own resources, which will increase terpenes and flavonoids. Keep watering, with a fine PH (using PH up or down is totally ok during flush), but take it easy. It would be too bad to under/overwater at this point. Good luck !

Hello, I have a question about the end of the flowering stage. The trichomes are still white or milky white but not amber. How long on average will they turn amber? I would like to harvest when there is about 10%. I stopped the nutrients and haven't watered for 3 days thinking that the harvest would come sooner. It is advisable to harvest with dry soil, right? Should I continue to water and if so how much and when? My pot is 11L about half full (lack of soil when starting). Should I rinse? Once rinsed do I have to water again? I'm close to the goal and I'm stressed, so a lot of questions... Thanks for your help. PS: I used Google translate to go faster, sorry if there are inconsistencies in the text.
