Now that I see it regardless of thricomes I would chop when you are back they might need a week more of maturing. Not expert advice tho

Too much nitrogen, revegging? Bad genetics? Cut a nug off and wait 2 weeks to dry it. Then smoke it and then see. Are you going to flush to try and get some fade ?

I actually cut all the big leaves off down to sugar leaves today. There were a lot of one finger that grew out of the center. I cut all those down being ready to chop. It was really thick so I thinned it out.

Have you started flushing already?
You can not remove anything from a plant by flushing. Flushing is only necessary when growing hydro to clean your overfed media or on the rare occasion a soil grower has gotten their soil mix off. Once nutrients have crossed the semi-permeable membrane of the roots nutrients are not leached out. So all you are doing at the end is starving your plant when it's bulking up.

I started flushing Sunday thinking I was chopping this weekend. It's really hot in Florida so I'm battling heat with humidity as well. That's why I used pots. I wanted to see if I could do it before I spent money on an inside set up.

So flushing is pointless?

If you're in soil yes and in hydro we use it to leach our medium's retained salts.

Let me add that at the end the plant's uptake slows so your watering and feeding slows as well. So they naturally reduce their intake. Although I will say I've had some that pigged out until the end. The way you deal with the chlorophyll for a good smoke is in the drying. You run a 60% humidity/60 degree 14 day dry and the metabolic processes naturally break down the chlorophyll.

Great information. Much love!
