afghan kush week 8 of flowering. Handheld microscope was used but it is so hard to focus in on them and be stable to get a difinitve answer. Saw a lot of cloudy trichs....started flushing......not sure where this baby is at or how much longer...any help please.

 

[stickynugzz]

id clip that bitch in a couple days
looks like some straight fire

 

[coocoo]

really? shit....it hasnt had time to flush...

 

[aknight3]

you could def cut it now if you wanted, if it was my plant i would let it go 7 - 10 more days, its really preference at this point, but she will look alot nicer in a week i promise

You only need 5-7 days to flush. One big flush then two good waterings after then done.

Great job! And yes 7 to 10 days will be fine. Look for some amber tri-cromes. This will freak out a lot of folks, but its part of the ripening process.

Wish you the best, and good job "your grow is on Fire!"

They certainly look done to me. Send me a sample, I'll let you know.

Thank you for mentioning that....I was kinda lost on flushing as to how much and if its a one big flush then another big flush or jus one big flush... I ran 5 gallons of fresh water (5 gallon container) 2 regular waterings and that should be good right?

I will try to find them, it's such a pain in the ass to see them because the scope and the buds keep moving and then u need to focus.

lol i'll get right on that

Flush until the runoff is clear. Flush, then wait a few days and then flush again. After the second flush your runoff should be like mountain dew. You're basically going to start with runoff that looks like coke and you'll end with mountain dew. In very simple terms you're starving the plant thereby forcing the plant to convert stored nutrients into usable sugars.
Wait until things dry out before you harvest.

will the runoff end up actually clear or a little yellowish is what im looking for?

I would use a clearing agent like Clearex and finish the flush in 3 days. That plant is ready to come down. I usually flush during the seventh week and by the start of week 8 is cut, but that is heavily strain dependent. Your plant is done though.

its okay coo, theres really no need for it, they look great and will be great either way, you can flush if you want to although i see so no point in it, but to each his own, however you do it just make sure you let the plant dry out before cutting as in no water for 3 or 4 days before cutting it down, dont want it to be to wet when you cut or your looking at adding a few days onto the drying process

This is good advice. There is more science behind letting the plant sit in the cold dark for a few days than there is behind flushing the medium and yet people jumped on the flush bandwagon like the plant cannot be cut otherwise.

There is no reason to flush unless you have salt lockup. You'll be ok just giving water last few days if you want, but flushing a week or two before harvest just starves the plant at the most critical time.

Trust me, there is no discernible difference in taste or smoke of flushed buds versus unflushed. People just read and repost misinformation on the Internet.
