Trichome colors for harvest

Not the greatest picture quality. Should I go ahead with the final flush? Day 58 of flower. About 90-95% of the pistols have turn red/orange. Most of the other buds still remain with about 75% clear trichomes.

That’s pretty , if you’re not in a hurry I would give her a little more time to finish.

@kellydans ppm was pretty high. I went ahead and flushed her enough to bring the ppm down into a better range to be better prepared for harvest. Foxfarm(which I’m not sure I’ll use again due to how hot it is) calls for a flush every 4 weeks with their nutrient schedule. I had the idea that if I did that I could just feed her pH’d water until harvest and not have to do a full flush then. I’ve heard of a final flush or water only for the last couple/few weeks is equivalent. Is that correct?

2nd picture plant looks very healthy. I usually feed up to about week from finish , then water only good to about 40 percent run off A couple times.

They are looking mighty fine @Bubbagump211

I think I would wait one more week to 10 days and cut.

Nice job!!

Yeah my last non hydro grow I stopped all nutrients the last week or two and just clean water.

Fox farms is really hot, only used it the one grow as well.

What water are you using? Can’t pH water with 0ppm such as distilled/ro filtered

@Syndrix I’m using distilled water. I hit it with 2 drops of pH down and that puts me in the pH range with less than 20ppm. Sometimes I don’t have to add anything. This water comes in 6.8-7.1pH and 0-5 ppm. It’s pretty consist. I’ll get high 7’s every once in a while and add the pH down to it.

Happy Harvest
