How much longer

This is a Dark Devil auto from sweet seeds and is 62 days old. Supposed to be 60-65 from seed to harvest. How much longer do I have. Trichomes r cloudy

With all the white pistols, looks like you have a couple weeks left at least

Yessir so with that being said I can start my flush and she should finish up nicely?

i don’t see any nute burn so u shouldn’t have to flush,
just cut down on the fert’s, give half of what she has been getting.!

this way if she goes another 4 wks she won’t be severely deficient.!

It’s an auto how can it go another 4 weeks? It’s already 8 weeks into flower? And according to the manufacturers it should be done

It looks like it’s kicking out it’s second round of pistils - this usually indicates the final swell from the plant to me, so you are probably on target. But @Slowoldguy makes a valid point, and @hornhead can certainly back it up… sometimes autos don’t play by the “rules.” :slight_smile:

62 days old, or 8 weeks into flower?

what r u using to check the trich’s.?
i ask because it would be strange for all of them to be cloudy.!
u want mostly cloudy, less then 5% clear (1/20), and 15%+ amber (1/7)

with a 20x jewelers loupe all trich’s look cloudy to me,
i have to use a 60-100x pocket microscope to actually determine maturity.!

60x mag all the headed cloudy not necessarily the stem of trichomes themselves. Seen maybe one or 2 amber trichs. But still it’s a fast flowering auto

Thank u sir I suppose my question really is do I think she is ready for her 2 wk flush

I stopped nutrients a couple weeks or a bit less, before harvest. Then, I just watered normally until harvest and any built up salts, nutrients, etc. Get slowly reduced until the end. My smoke is just fine this way, and only have a cough from it in the morning. That’s more related to me, and most I would assume.

Thanks bro but Everyone is jumping around the answer to my question… should I start flushing her now with 14 days finishing up. I am doing a flush, just want the best

I grow hydro so I can’t adequately comment on proper flushing prior to harvest in soil. I grew several plants in dirt outside last year and unless it rained before I harvested them (which it did a lot) I didn’t do any flushing on them either… I just fed them straight water once they were close. Sorry I can’t be more helpful.

I will say I think 14 days is too long. I would keep feeding them for now, switch to plain water in another week or two (depending on what the buds are looking like).

I do a flush that requires watering at same amount but nothing but water. No nutes 10-14 days. I’m not asking how to properly flush I’m asking how much longer till bud is done? I am stating that I flush for up to 14 days. So with that given information can someone pls tell me what’s up

no one can answer that.!
not even the seed breeders.!
everyone agrees from your pic, it looks like 1-3 wks left.

if u want a time line grow this strain exclusively,
keep records of everything, lighting, temps, EC, pH, dates…
then in a few to several grows u might get your time line.!

Thank u very much sir. All I needed was a time from to work my flush in I have never grew autos before. Thank U very much

I had a northern lights autoflower go for 126 days. Like @Bogleg says, sometimes autos don’t play by the “rules”. my personal average on autoflowers has been 90-100 days at 20% amber

:stuck_out_tongue:
That’s where I got hung up, too. 8 weeks would be 56 days. 62 days would be closer to 9 weeks, no? Anyway, I’d wait until some of those white pistils have started to turn red before I started flushing, but then again I’ve never grown an auto, and I believe that was the jist of what you were asking, yeah? When do I start flushing my auto? As far as when to flush, when to harvest, etc., same rules as photoperiod plants apply, no?
