Yet another "Am i close to harvest" :)

First grow and, well,,, need some second opinon.
I'm not think so, but i do however need second opinon if they are clear or milky. ( i do think i see some amber in first pic?)
And, of course, the mandatory, how are they looking
Day 55 from flip, around 40 from first pistils.
Nutes are Biobizz,,, should i flush before harvest?
1/4 grow and 1/2 bloom strenght.

Hello,

Nice looking ladies there!
Which strain?

From what i see, and from my liking, you still have a bit too much of clear/milky trichomes VS amber trichomes (I only see a couple in the first pic). I would say check again every 2 days or so, they tend to change quite rapidly at some point leaving you with a 5-6 days range to chop at the right moment!

A good indication that you are close is when fan leaves start to turn yellow with the plant feeding on them as a last push. I see from the pics that is just starting now on a few leaves.

With regards to flushing, that's a big yes for me - I never tried without flushing but a mate did and the difference between his green and mine was very big. So yes, please flush, especially if you have used nutes, no matter how much.

Just my 2 cents...hope this helps!

Hi.
Thanks!
Yes, i'm pretty happy with the grow. The strain is Northern Lights. Tehy are quite short, think i vegged a little too short. Next time gonna veg some more , but hey,,, first grow so....

I agree, i see only a few in first pic, and i think about 50/50 of clear/milky.
Will do as u suggested, look into them every other day.
Gave them water today with nutes (watering every other day),,, maybe nutes next time, and then flush?? What do u think?

Great job for a first grow!

What i normally do is stop all nutes feeding about 10 days before chopping and use only water (which amounts to about 3 waterings with only water) and then i flush it with twice my pot's worth, let all the run off go to waste and let the plant sit in aerated darkness for about 48 hours. I turn the light back on, wait a few minutes and then she gets the axe!

Are you growing in soil or choir? If it is potting soil, then your plant has less of a need for additional nutes.

I have always grown my ladies in soil and my watering schedule is nutes every other watering, veg and flower nutes the same. But that is because i burnt a whole grow a few years ago with too much nutes in soil and now i am being very careful...less nutes is always better than too much cause you can recover from it!

Each plant/atmosphere is different and you just gotta go with the feeling sometimes.

98% brown pistils and 40-50% amber trichomes don't lie and this is when the scissors start singing for me

Thanks again!
Yes, i grow in soil so i just skip nutes next watering as harvest is closing in
Have been careful with nutes, never recommended dose from bottle, have used about 1/2 - 2/3 strenght at most.
Gonna watch for these amber ones

About a pound...

'give them another week' and check then.

Cant be more then a few days away from harvest now. Patience is key to a good harvest, Watch your amber trichomes closely. if I had to guess I would say 3 days

Will watch closely every day now. Thanks!

And another day has gone by.
