One week away from harvest flushing question

[newbie12345]

Ok half way through week 9 the strain ice says 9 to 11 week flowering time, just checked the trichs look really cloudy but only saw a couple maybe 8 percent were amber. Shoukd I flush for a week after week 9 (this week) or go one more week and then flush for a week, which would make for a total of 11 weeks. Week 10 would start this Sunday.

Hi Newbie12345
Firstly let me tell you that flowering times on strain guides are generally set using the SOG (sea of Green) method so personally i would wait another week.
If you are checking your Trichs then this is all the knowledge you need.

If you harvest when you have mostly cloudy trichs then it will be a head high (euphoric)
If you harvest when 75 % have changed to amber then you get couchlock.
If you harvest when 50/50 you will get a good mix of both.

Hope this helps.

I think u should let it go 2 to 3 more weeks i personally harvest all my strains at week 13 to 14 and the way it smells when i harvest is the same way it taste and smells after the buds are done drying then curing is a whole nother process
dont harvest early like everybody else in this site

yeah thanks man so you're saying finish this week and then so another week then flush? I was just wondering how fast the trichomes will start changing it's only my second grow but I think of it this way if you want a head high go sativa couchlock go indica I just want it to be at it's strongest so the head high or couchlock isn't a bi deal to me I expected it with the ice strains so when is it at it's strongest how many percent amber? Also what do y'all do to flush the hydro guy says this stuff called clearex

I use Blueberry Final Flush by Grotek. My Indicas have a sweet lemony taste/smell. With the addition of the blueberry flavor it comes out with a kinda sherbet flavor/smell. I flush for three days with straight water dump then flush for 4-5 days with final flush.

Whoa sweet so that final flush adds a little blueberry? I dontthink he had that all I saw was clearex? But I will def ask him about it when I go to pick up the clearex or final flush if he does have it. Bought a 60-100x scope and there are some ambers on there not many but I saw a few I couldn't tell between clear and cloudy trichs though but I did see a couple amber I think I'm gonna finish this week which is Sunday see what she looks like then depending upon go one more after that and flsh for another week so I either have a week and a half or two and a half weeks she is so pretttttty!
