Nice plants. Not ready. At least a week or ten days. They haven't crowned yet. The calyexs will swell and make the bud look like a crown.
Thank you. I'm hoping they get bigger. Just saw some amber triches and was a little worried for a minute

Can someone tell me how I can tell when its time to start flushing my plant before harvest? I would like to know for my royal creamatic. Its on week 5 of flower about to go into week 6 but the hairs are still white with some orange so I know its not close to ready yet but just some info I would like to know :)

I wouldn't flush. They look fine and not burnt up. There is no way to flush. The plant is what you fed it. You can't remove it. It converts what you feed into other compounds.

Its best to cut right before lights on. Terpenes and smell will highest then and starches in the root zone. From there its a slow dry and good cure.

The key to good smoke is drying and curing.

I'm worried that my plant is ready to crop and I haven't started flushing yet. How do I make sure its flushed well enough before I crop it and do it in a timely manner. The pictures arent the best but make of it what you can. Thanks!
DO NOT FLUSH. WHEN YOUR READY TO CHOP USE BOILING WATER TO WATER ONCE. THEN LEAVE THE PLANT UNDER NORMAL 12/12 LIGHTING FOR 3-5 DAYS UNTIL FADE!! YOU CAN THANK ME LATER:eyesmoke:

Mine doesn't seem like its going to be getting a big yield :( I'll be lucky to get an oz off of it from the looks of the bud...
The actual gsc forum and sin mint and a the rest don't yield ever I mean most I've seen from forum cut is 1.5 a light and that's prob max indoors so don't fee bad bout yield it's not supposed to its just fire

The only thing I have to use is PH down BC the water I have is extremely high.. I mean straight from the faucet it reads 9.4.. I usually just use Ph'd water but I've been reading about putting molasses in the water for the last 2 weeks before harvest? Anyone have any opinions or thoughts on this??
Get Jacks citrus 20-10-20. Until then you should use unsulfered molasses every feeding including veg if growing in organic soil!!

One or two waterings with molasses is plenty enough. I would keep it green. Flushing just starves the plant when its packing on weight.

The last watering or two, just water. Before you chop let the soil dry some.
Agree, that's my "flush", just water for the last couple of waterings. Drowning the plants makes no sense to me.

This is the dumbest trolling shit I've ever heard. Boiling water will kill the plant.

All flushing does is rid the root zone and soil of salts. Not nutrients. If using synthetics or chemicals you definitely want to flush out those salts. Molasses is good for this because it's a chelating agent and will help remove and break down matter. Plus the sodium sulfate in in molasses neutralizes chems that cause salt build up and also nuetralizes chlorine and chloramine.

This is rm3's technique. I'm not trolling man.
