Hey net, sorry I've been out, busy weekend... new furniture yesterday, maybe new dog today!!
Anyway, we're soo in the same boat! I still need to run by the art store and get my loop (i lost mine from college damn it)
Because I'm all weary about when to flush... not to soon... not to late... and when to harvest. I think I still have about 2 weeks left, but instead of now changeing my res with nutes or no nutes, I'm gonna just let me res go for a bit, use up what its got, then about 5-7 days maybe change out with pure pHed water and start flush...
I also heard a good rule-of-thumb is to flush with 40% of the hairs (NOT trichs) turn orange/brown... but everybody has their own flush times it seems.. :-/
