Hi littleNugz, flushing is a myth. Ice bath is also a myth. It does more or less nothing to the flower. Check dr. Bruce Bugbee on YT to move away from "bro" science 👊. But on the other hand it does no harm to your flowers if you flush or ice bath - it is just a waste of time. I would keep ph where it should be and just water them if you are 100% sure they are more or less done. Good luck with the grow! 👍

I would say your in flushing stage I wouldn't even worry about ph. But if you think it would help your ice ph may drop a little but air rate your tap water for 3 days your ph will drop. Hope this helps

AFAIK there is no proven benefit from using ice in the final days. ph 10.2 is alarming high, your earth media can puffer some. Best plan would be: use ph down or buy bottled destilled water. "flushing" is not necessary at all. you just need to water them with low EC water so the plant uses everything it got stored. looks awesome btw!

Harvesting plant in sections — not all at once?When harvesting, does anyone ever harvest their plant in phases? Example: I have trichomes approaching harvest on the tops of the colas, but lower down they are still all clear, and will not be ready at the same time. Should I cut tops now, lower ones later?Week 15

Focusing on Full Healthy BudsI think my baby autos went to Flower way too early and I’m not too sure where or when I made the mistake. With that being said I know my yield won’t be huge (as I am expecting this since this is my first grow) but is there any way that I can maximize the size of my buds?

Sideways colas..foxtailing?Hi. Just wondering if these look ok. Maybe some nute issues but nothing looks terrible to me. The buds feel pretty dense. Maybe I did LST late and kept the cola low. Are these foxtailing? Is this a problem? This is my first every grow so just looking for input. Thanks!

Are you betting on too much too late or good work?These last three days of the week, will be crucial to see how leaves on the tops of the branches react and if they can stimulate the even growth of flowers along the height of the branches. I've pruning too much (or too late) to hope for beautiful branches full of big flowers?

More or Less nutes and Molasses?My first time grow and my autos are in flowering. I’ve been giving them grandmas molasses (half teaspn/1gal) every feeding along with her other nutes. She’s been taking them well, should I up the dose? Or feed every other watering?
