Newbie to hydro...is she alright??(super lemon haze auto)

Exactlt what I said is, "I say chop".

If you think longer then by all means.
I saw amber. I also see a mature bud.

Don't take my thoughts as sure advice, I'm not all that experienced. I have seen very experienced growers overlook trichomes and go by receding pistils and overall maturity of bud.

I stand corrected.
Sorry
I was seiing a shadow of an amber pistil.
My bad.
I will keep my mouth shut now.

I'm just messing around, don't take me seriously... but yeah, if he took your advice and chopped em. welllll..... .he'd end up with some low grade bud. I'm not experienced either, currently on my first grow. But I'd like to say I know what I'm doing, take a look.

Attached a pic of my grow, I've only got a 3x3 space to work with, a TON of bud sites. Only on week 4, next week they should be atleast double the size judging by what I've found on the interwebz. (Sorry the pics a bit blurry)

wow, what a turn around man. i'm really impressed with the trichome coverage on that girl, considering her start. Very good job.

I wouldn't recommend chopping late, but i would strongly advise against chopping early. Listen to what the guys said and give it another week.

Don't buy the hype on flushing. Instead of flushing, start lowering your ppm's so that the last couple of days will be 50% of what you are currently feeding them. This way they will be able to finish up while not being starved of the nutrients they need.

No worries man. I was hoping someone would come along anyway. I was about to look again because I'm not comfortable with giving that advice, and planned on staying that, as I am also in my first grow.

when you speak about ppms do you measure the total overall ppms or just the additional ppms after you measure the water?

Usually i measure ppms of my base and leave out: any additives (such as floralicious plus), the drip clean i add, and the small amount of bleach i add.
I use RO or distilled water so there is only a contribution of 5ppm max from my water (all this on .5 scale).

Make sure you know what scale you are measuring ppms in. i would figure out the conversion, then learn how to say it in "ec" talk. for instance, i have a .5 scale ppm meter that reads 600 ppm. This means I have an ec of 1.2.

EC is a universal common scale, but ppm is not.
