My trichomes are almost all clear very very little cloudy my buds are preatty small so I wanted to give it nutes the longest I can until I have time to flush. Well my question is after I notice the very first trichomes turn amber how long would I have before it's ready
IMHO, I would wait til at least 60%+ of the bud hairs change color... then chop her down. The way Ive done it for 10 years.
And as far as the flushing is concerned.. The last 2-3 weeks is when the bud growth is at its best.
Are you sure you wanna flush out the food at this most crucial time of flowering?
I know this is a debateable subject. But, I do things like this.
Personally,..
I keep all the nutrients in the soil for the biggest yields possible.. And that means til the very end.
Then I dry the buds all the way til the stems snap. After I hear the snapping, I proceed to a good Ol' fashion cure in Mason Jars for a few weeks opening the jars each and every day for a few minutes.
The cure process will remove any bad taste from chemicals, and the chlorophyll.
After the buds are fully cured I place the jars in my refrigerator. Keeps the bud from going stale.
Everybody does it different, Its just the way I do it.
Either way, Wish you the best. Take care Man. CG
