Lots of people flush for 10+ days at the end of flower so a couple days on plain water will be sweet. Or you could use your veg res if you want wont really make any difference but plain water is easy peasy

Day 48 @DustyDuke. 3 out of 4 are very similar - tight buds with a nice fuelly grape nose (no mango). 1 out of 4 seems more hazey, looser buds and a bit slower to mature. I think the potency will definitely be there though

Looking good mate super frosty I haven’t seen something that tight since I was in high school, the buds almost look like grapes on a few of em.Day 48 @DustyDuke. 3 out of 4 are very similar - tight buds with a nice fuelly grape nose (no mango). 1 out of 4 seems more hazey, looser buds and a bit slower to mature.

Mine have 6 weeks of veg left. I’ll probably top once more that will give me a good canopy and I’ll let em run.

I discovered some auto buds I grew as freebies last year (completely forgotten) & decided to give them a try over the past couple of days. They taste like absolute shit to smoke (soapy), but did the job, so I figured I'd turn them into coconut oil caps instead.
Normally, I'd decarb in the oven, then infuse in coconut oil in a glass jar which I just leave on top of the wood heater for a couple of weeks or so over winter, then strain & do the packaging whenever I felt like it.
@Lucky Luke , I know you like to make caps, but you go the intermediate step of making hash oil with IPA first & then infusing the result into coconut oil. I figured there's a better/quicker way & disappeared down a rabbit-hole of research with the idea of using a pressure cooker for both infusion & decarboxylation in a single step.
Since I live on top of a mountain, I looked into pressure differentials & concluded that I was was just uneccessarily chasing rainbows. Being a homebrewer, this can actually affect boiling temperatures/times etc., but for this application, pft......
I've got a Fagor "Duo" pressure cooker that has 2 different settings. Low pressure is 8psi (0.55 bar) & high pressure is 15 psi (1 bar).
Since everyone seems to reference this chart, I figured I'd use it as a guide:
Conclusion (& I'm no scientist!):
Finely ground/cut/dried (dry as a Nun's naughty-bits) buds can be successfully decarbed & infused directly in coconut oil in a glass jar at 1 bar (~120C) for about 30-35 mins in a pressure cooker in a single step. Just chuck the whole lot in the jar & set it on a trivet in the bottom of the pressure cooker with sufficient water to last the processing time. Bring up to temperature/pressure & set a timer.
Strain, cool & package.
No intermediate steps or expense required.
PS. You could do the same thing with butter for baking edibles......
