Hello, I am new to this forum and new to farming my own crop.So I'm in week 8 and started flushing a week ago. Tons of trichromes,buds are hard. Trichromes look clear to me still and figured I would flush another week. I did notice this evening a lot of new pistols growing . Is this normal?Pistols are red due to using natures green for mildew problem or to avoide ot npre or less.I'm afraid my plants still want to grow but the leaves are pretty much down,yellow and deteriorating rapidly any advice. These pics taken yesterday

Flushing is a controversial topic here so expect your thread to go to shit! That's the norm, don't take it personal.

Flushing on this site has been defined in the stickies as putting 3x pot volume of water through your soil or going water only if hydro. Leaching is going water only in soil and producing a little bit of run off. Leaching is less controversial.

I would recommend keeping them on a light feed until harvest and reading some older flushing threads, most of the time someone eventually spills some good science and you'll learn some cool shit. Good luck!

Appreciate the advice,I will reclarify my statement as I am leaching them and not flushing,I was thinking about feeding them,however my understanding is that all the nutrients need to be cleaned out of the plant closer to harvest. Please correct me of I am wrong. I was originally feeding with tiger bloom and big bloom prior

I have a 10x loop and a 50x loop and that was how I was able to determine that trichs look mostly clear still. I'm just worried I may have jumped the gun on leaching them

when you see plants grow new pistols in late flower, thats when they're swelling, right when you're not feeding them anything to support that swelling.......quit with the leeching/flushing bullshit already

Yeah looks like a sack. Nutrient stress causes this. As well as other stress but those plants are hungry right through stacking as said above.

Add in a very light feed and pick that ball off is my advice.

I like to taper my nutrients down after I see the buds finish expanding. Then as they ripen the leaves don't burn and yellow too much and the flowers can grow to their potential.

I did go ahead and just did a light feeding on them. That's why I'm here for advice all the time and effort I have put into them,I want nothing but to have a great finished plant. Appreciate the feedback
