Looks good. Are you flushing? Only because with the leaves yellowing looks as if the plant is using up all its chlorophyll. Def. Getting there! whats the trich status?

the trichs seem to me clear/cloudy. ive been reading about flushing and i wasnt going to bother i no the leaves turn yellow near the end but this plant has since about 2/3 weeks into flowering
 
Looking good man. I like to cut my harvest down when all trichomes are cloudy, i find all strains to be more potent the LESS amber there is. Amber only makes me feel fuzzy headed or really drowsy late at night, I'm in for the win on my grow, so I think my plants are at top potency before the THC degrades into Amber heads. In fact I noticed on one grow that in the last 5-7 days your plant will change into more amber trichomes, more red hair recession and BIGGER Yield, but again growing for the last week getting the bigger yield means one must suffer potency loss. (less cloudy heads)

do you flush because im not going to bother this is my first proper grow
I don't know if I could ever really tell if a flush made a difference on my bud. You will be just fine without a flush. I think a good cure is MUCH more important than a flush.

That plant looks great btw. Reminds me of my last harvest before the STUPID COPS. Sweet Deep Grapefruit was sure some good bud.

I'm on the fourth grow and what makes it the best, was not cutting it up to dry but, hanging the whole thing for a week and a half. pulling the dry stuff off after was real easy, and the smell was awesome. I've never flushed a crop (in hydro).

ive read so much about flushing and not flushing my bloody heads banging so il not flush this time and just dry and cure it properly and see wot happens im thinking of hacking it down and then might try the brown paper bag method with a 4 to 5 week cure

I always FLUSH, But mainly because I am all personal use so I don't cure my buds for months. I do a very good dry, jar it up and smoke as necessary. When I didn't flush and the bud was perfectly dry and I had smoked it one harvest it tasted poopy compared to every other time I flushed with the same strains. :confused:
