Hi there everyone,

Here is my problem. I have grown a number of varieties at the same time and they have had 2 weeks bud blood, 4 weeks of big bud and are now of the final 2 weeks of overdrive before a week of final flush or so. The problem is one of the plants is maturing much faster and is nearly Ready.

Can I use overdrive for just one week before flush?

Will it affect the end result if I flush for more than a week?

Any information will be gladly received.

Blueberry
Blue cheese
Pineapple express
Afghan kush. (1week overdrive?)
Unknown clone - early something (1 week overdrive?)

Thanks

It wont affect anything except the yield.... Overdrive makes those buds swell up almost 30% in those 2 weeks.... The majority of it in the 2nd week... If you can push it, do it for the full 2 weeks.... If you want a little trick I use when this happens here it is.... And this is straight from Advanced, cuz I emailed them and asked.....

Lets say you have 3 weeks left on your feed schedule (2 weeks Overdrive, and one week Flush).... Yet, your lady will be ready in 2 weeks.... So u need to shave a week off of her schedule.... DO NOT CHINCE ON THE OVERDRIVE.... PUSH IT... Maybe give ger ONE less feeding of the Overdrive, but You can shave the days off during the flush.....

For a quick flush (that really works).... Example: I use 5 gallon pots in Flower.... So Id mix up 5 gallons worth of Final Phase, and run it through the girl..... Wait about 12 hours, then do it again.... Wait another 12 hours, and do it a 3rd time..... Wait another 12 hours and then just run 5 gallons of straight PH'd water through her... 24 hours later chop her... Thats a FULL FLUSH in 3 days... Taset, smell, high is just as good as a 7-10 day flush.... Unless those trichomes are Amber, your fine...
