5/22/11 Update:
Going to give them an extra day and will start the flush Wednesday. Most of the Trichs are milky and almost all the hairs are caramel but haven't started to shrink back into the calyxes yet.

The one plant in the back still barely has any hairs turning from white, the buds are fat as hell but not frosty like the rest. Anybody have an opinion? just genetics? they are all in the same res and it even has its own air stone and cfl bulb for the lower buds. The smoke will tell if its good or not but so far its looking weeeak.

Trichomes as of today are mostly milky with a couple clear ones and one or two with amber bulbs.

The nute burn you see was from a week or two ago when I was seeing how heavy I could feed (not very) since then the burn has stopped. though the some of the leaves are starting to yellow which I think is just the plants using up the available nitrogen.

Those white hairs are still standing proud up top Lol. Mine are 10-12 wk and I'm on week 9 as of today.
I flushed early cuz I thought it was an 8-9 wk
. I'd prob go another week if I were you before flushing.
You should be on about week 8 I believe, so two weeks of flush will put you at week 10. Looking healthy!!

Thanks bro, yeah I was looking at that today. Thinking of waiting til the 30 to start flushing. Any opinions on that straggler in the back?
Yeah I read that you had harvested early, I'm sure you still got a big haul out of them though.

Nope I didn't harvet yet. Waiting on the clear trichs to cloud up over the next week.
Being patient and seeing if they swell up anymore.
I flushed early because I was thinking they were 8-9 wk strain like my Extrema is but they are not.
Waiting to harvest until they ripen up though so I'm not smoking premature buds
.
From the looks of your plants. I would say flush in a week and chop in about 2 1/2 - 3 weeks.
Mine look done too but upon closer looking I still see clear on the lower budz.
Yours will ripen up and should put on more size over the next week or so..

Oh, I think I got yours confused with doc for a minute. Just read your last page. Yeah that was gonna be my next question was if after two weeks of flushing if they still werent quite ripe if I could just hold off chopping til they were. One of them seems to be fox tailing but the last day or so It hasn't seemed like they are putting on much more weight but they might have a growth spurt before the end.

Twas Monday morning and not a stoner was stirring. When I awoke with a thought ! wake and bake I just might. the bowl was half gone and so was I. all of a sudden a thunderous boom from my door! The cops I thought ! halfway to the toilet with my jar of weed these words I did hear "Vitos Pizza"....

Damn Im paranoid when I'm stoned.

Dude, our local pizza place is awesome. they stay open til 3 am and open at 8 am. Im beginning to think they cater to stoners just because of the hours. I've got something that has a citrus taste to it. Seems like every time I pay good money for bud the shit is never dried and cured correctly its always to wet and I end up having to let it dry over night and lose alil weight. be glad when Mine is ready.

I keep hearing the longer the cure the more potent and smooth the smoke is so I'm going to set a jar aside to cure until Christmas. Should be a nice lil present to myself.

Thats why I buy regular bud. I can get the dro but he charges $125 a 1/4 and it doesn't get me much higher than the reg, but it does taste better. You pay for a 1/4 and it's not done completely and then you end up with 5 grams of dry bud when it was 8 grams when you bought it. Some Bullshit!! I'll smoke my regular bud for $20 a 1/4 til my shit gets done completely.

Yeah I pay about 120 for a quarter of what the local tards refer to as "dro" It gets me nice and high but always taste like they grew a blueberry strain then added a ton of blueberry flavor enhancer and then forgot to flush! The twenty or so times I've bought weed since moving hear only two have ever been what I would consider perfect.

Dude, I wish reg would get me high but we are so close to mexico all of our Reg is dirt pack mexican that burns your throat and gives you a harsh buzz. Just my theory but I have a feeling that If we I smoked a bowl of our regs (closer to mexico) and a bowl of your regs (no idea) your regs will probably taste a helluva lot better

Yea i know what ya mean. I used to get some from a mexican and it was always the mexican brick weed. I sometimes get some pretty good reg.
I get some every now and then that is good and compressed and super sticky. It's been a while since I have gotten that tho.
Usually pretty good tho. Especially for $20 compared to $100-125. Can't complain too much..
Headed to find something for me to smoke on..

5/25/11 update: woke up this morning and one of my bigger branches (thought it was one of the stronger ones) was laying on its side, my only guess being it could not support its own weight. tied it up and she looks fine.

There are almost no cloudy trichs left (that I saw) so I decided to start my two week flush today. If they need a couple more days past the two week mark then no big deal. Using Grotek's "Final flush" regular to do the job. First time using a flushing agent, active ingredients are Citric acid and ascorbic acid.

Day three of flush and the girls are reacting better than I expected. More trichomes starting to show an amber color as well as alil more growth and a whole lot more resin production.

Wish Texas would hurry up and vote on prop 14whatever number it is to decriminalize.

5/27/11 Update: No noticeable change, except the roots look healthier. So I'm trying to decide between making Butane Honey Oil, CannaButter or Hash. I've only ever had CannaButter and it was pretty awesome. But I've heard hash is pretty amazing....decisions decisions.
