Ripen too early?

47° from 12/12, plants are unloading nutrients quickly (remember they are in full coco), did I start a few days too early with Ripen in your opinion?

Yeah I think you gave the ripen too early. It is a pretty controversial product. Seems it stresses the plants to ripen up. It is called a flower "forcer" it is intended to force the plants to ripen up quickly if you find yourself in a situation where you have to harvest early due to bad weather coming or things like that. Looks like your buds were still stacking and you have beautiful white pistils that are not ready yet. I personally would not use the product. I think you have several weeks left of flowering on those girls. As far as a solution on how to proceed now.... That is a tricky one. I would personally try to flush all that ripen out and resume flower feeding but it might be too late. Looks like they are fading fast. If you continue the ripen then make sure you give them a good flush period afterwards because it does contain nutrients that will need to be flushed out. I will definitely follow along either way and look forward to your final results on this. Good luck!
