Flushing

[Grindrage67]

I did a final flush on my auto before harvest using ph'ed tap water and i could only get the ppm's down to around 467 which was the ppm of the tap water is this ok? Should i do something different? Also now no leaves are yellowing completey just a couple leaves starting to look deficient in some way

So i shouldnt flush at all?

The final 2 weeks is when buds can fatten up an additional 25% of their size. Starving them at that point is not a good thing to do at all. Once the plant takes in nutrients, they are there until the plant uses them. Studies have even found that unflushed flower actually is preferred.

Ok but i already did the flush? And a couple of my leaves have some spots on them now what should i do?

Damaged leaves wont recover. If you are going to harvest in a couple days I wouldnt even worry. It is also common for plants to discolor late in flowering. Any pics?

I was planning on letting it go at least another week i havent really seen any amber trichomes yet which i wanted to at least some amber color before i was ready

You should only flush after leaving the toilet... and don't forget to wash your hands.

You’re fine just feed it water till you harvest it. It’s still nice and green. I’d wait it out probably 7-10 days if you don’t have any amber trichs yet.

 

[TheSadBadGrower]

Yea she's fine. Like above....let her go another week at least.

 

[Grindrage67]

Do you think i should use anymore tiger bloom? Or just water?

 

[TheSadBadGrower]

She isnt fading really at all so let her leach her leaves a little. She kinda looks a little over fed if anything.....just water.

 

[Grindrage67]

Awesome thank you

No problem. She is healthy and the buds look great. Enjoy the harvest. If anything.....learn to cure properly. It makes and breaks the grow.

This is only my first grow ever. Do you use the entire ff trio throughout your grow? I did and had some nute burn forsure..but i read that if your using ff ocean forest you shouldnt even start feeding until your plant is flowering or about 30 days into your grow?

467 which was the ppm of the tap water is this ok?

Wow, I would consider getting an RO filter or rainwater collection. Thats really high PPM tap.
