In my opinion, when you have half of the desired plant height, you should switch. If you topped/fimmed, I think it would be better to let them 9 full weeks.

When to harvest? and general opinion on the buds :)
I have two automatic gorilla cookie flowers. One of them is more advanced in terms of the flowering stage and I'm not sure when I should cut it. It is currently about three weeks in bloom but I do not have a microscope to check the trichomes. I will only have it in two weeks.

How much yield from this setup?
As a first grow I chose to have 2 different Auto Strains from Fastbuds and opted for a Sativa and Indica ... maybe it’s a mistake or maybe not, however do you think I can grow both successfully in a 60x60 tent and how much should I expect to yield with this setup?

How to prevent humidity spikes during dark periods
My humidity is still spiking during the dark period. Going from about 60% to 85%. I have 2 dehumidifiers in the tent connected to a controller and they don't seem to be putting a dent in the RH. Is there a better way to go about managing the humidity during dark periods? Thanks!

Digital Microsope for iPhone?
Hi Guys Can anybody recommend a digital microscope that connects to iPhone? I've seen them on amazon etc but don't trust the Chinese and their "specs" as they tend to over-exaggerate.

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.)

Difficulty identifying leaf problem - maybe it's insects?
I'm having trouble figuring out what's going on with my plant. The cotyledons and lower fan leaves are getting irregular shiny patches varying in size underneath, with yellow spots directly above them on the top side. It's really hard to photograph the shiny patches. Thrips?
