I say, go for it and flush with molasses!

But about the "better than being late and not having good tasting buds..", there is a thread around here called "How far can ripeness be pushed" or something like that, where people let their plants flower for several weeks above their normal harvest time, and they say that high and taste doesn't change much, and Im telling about plants being harvested on week 20 of flowering. So its pretty hard to harvesting late and not having good tasting bud.

Wait for all the pistils to turn dark and curl up and the bud to swell before checking trichomes.

you can't remove anything from the flower of a plant by feeding it plain water. a plant during flower is dedicating nearly all of its energy to producing those flowers. The only thing that happens when you stopping feeding a plant in flower is the plant taking any available mobile nutrients from other areas of the plant (the leaves mostly) and sending them to, wait for it..... the flowers. the entire notion that 'nutes make the buds taste bad' and that you can somehow flush them out of the flowers with a little water is based on a complete lack of horticultural knowledge.

thats the whole idea of the flush. to get those tiny trim leafs to lose chlorofile faster give you better smoke -.-

but chlorophyll has a half life of 2 days and all of it starts degrading the second the plant dies so guess what happens to it during the drying and cure

"Chlorophyll breaks down into metabolites, which along with the presence of other sugars already present in the plant tissue are seen as what can give that harsh smoke generally associated with improperly cured cannabis. Curing properly gives aerobic bacteria time to digest the chlorophyll metabolites and other sugars. "
Not a scientific (peer reviewed) study but still

Chlorophyll has a half life of 2 days? Do you have a source for that?

Why would you need to cure then?

Is that right? You have been flowering that plant since November?? So 4.5 months??

And the typical RIU idiot always shows up and quips "it's not ready leave it another 3-4 weeks" LMAO

If the plant has been in flower since November you have issues somewhere that flushing or not isn't going to help. The only genetics that flower that long are tropicals and rarely past 20 weeks without decline in quality.

But PW will still say it was harvested early or leave it for another two years.

This site is rife with amateurs spewing nonsense.
