If I start seeing some more amber trichomes I will. They are ~95% milky/clear now, so I don't know how long it takes them to turn, but yes this weekend is the plan.

yeah.... I would start now... but I prefer to have more milky trichs....... depends on all around bud development to me though, whether or not I flush..... sometimes trichs are still clear for the most part when the flush starts.... just because the rest of the buds developmental aspects are at peak maturity level

TLD is correct. I am planning on flushing when 20-30 amber if all goes right harvest should be around 40-50% amber. Although I enjoy a uplifting high at times, this is more for pain releif and a deep body high. Also, since it is pk I would like to let it do what it does best. I may grow some deisel or green crack in the future for the heady or upper high, but this strain is known for is deep body high/ cerebral high. That's why I love it.
maybe consider doin one table flush now for the milky white trichs and wait a lil longer on the other table to flush and do a smoke report diff to see how it makes u feel. obviously the amber is prob more wat ur lookin for with the PK but maybe experiment with it? just a thopught
who knows maybe ull get a tad more weight from waitin a lil longer

Day 52 Flower-
Well maybe I will start the flush then..hmm. I have a 1/3 of the res full of nutes right now, so maybe I will just dilute that and flush with it. It looks like trichs are starting to pop anyway.
Please share your opinions on when to flush. Do they look ready? I appreciate the advice
Here are a few Trichome shots- The first one you can see a few that look to have burst
Here are the buds
Here is a shot of the crowded 4' x 4' x 4' veg box

Thanks Bro. They didn't get as fat as I had hoped for, but should be some good smoke.
Hey man. Looking great! I would start my flush now, but thats just me. Rather have to long of a flush rather then to short. If those bad-girls start turning amber on you in 4 days you may be screwed!
On my OG Kush, I flushed for like 21 days in soil. They didnt add there weight until the final week of my flush, either..
Dont be scared of a flush!! Its your friend!!

Thanks buddy for the advice. I will start my flush tomorrow. I am using coco coir, so I am going to dilute the rest of the nute mix I have already in my watering res (3mls of a/b) for tomorrows watering and then flush with RO from here out. I was thinking of maybe using the clearex a few days out, but not sure if I need it with the coco.
Thanks again for the advice.

Thanks bterz, I flushed tonight with 300 ppm solution. I fillled up my res with RO so I didn't just dump the fresh nutes that were in there. The thing is I can't harvest before the first even if I wanted to. I have family house guests and am sneaking under the house to tend the plants right now through New Years. They are leaving early on the 1st. That is when they will come down. So I will flush with RO water here on out.
I am seeing some ambers on the under side of the top buds. In this pic you can see some amber trichomes on the left underside of the bud.
This is one of the buds that is starting to fatten up.

Thanks Boomer. I appreciate the compliment brother. Oh and by the way, I had my wife on board with the photo shoot and my brother-in-law found my grow on here. So now she has jumped of the train completely. Maybe some bikini pics or something now, but the topless thong is definatly out.

Thanks brother for the props. Yes it was not too long ago that I started lurking in the shadows of RIU and thinking man wouldn't it be sweet if I that was my bud ready to harvest. It's still kind of crazy that I am that guy now. lol Thanks for taking the time read the journey man. It starts with some inspiration and ends with a glossy eyed exhale. Speak of the devil, TLD was that guy for me. I remember looking at his Purple Kush and thinking wow that shit is so fuckin pretty.
Thanks TLD, I am on it. Your still inspiring me. lolFlush time
No shit huh? I have a house full at the holidays. I will have over 20 people here for Christmas Eve dinner. Well I did want a deep full body high. lol Wasn't looking to go into a coma though. I'll seperate the lower less mature buds from the tops while drying and curing and maybe I'll get some variety.
