Trichs are looking good, cloudy, a pic of the plant/buds would help, there's more to harvesting than trich colour. hairs should have turned brown/redish and curly, plus the trichs turned cloudy, maybe a slight bit of amber. No worries on the flushing, questionable practice anyhow unless you overfeed.

Hi
Very blurry pics but look cloudy, possibly a couple of ambers in there. So you should be fine to start (based just on those pics)
It depends on what your growing in as to how long it will take to flush. Some pics of your buds would help also to get some extra info from them.

Beautiful but not ready, close for only 6 weeks in. I'd give her another week and check again though, there's some maturity left and they'll fatten up a bit more. If I haven't grown a strain before I use the hairs, trichs as indicators, but my final decision to pull is when they slow down drinking which is the last telltale sign they're ready to harvest. Although the hairs are turning, the colour of the leaves tells me they're still sucking back water at a good pace and no fading has started. It could go another 2 weeks based on what I'm seeing in those pics.

I agree with @GroErr flushing is a matter of opinion and growerz choice. I usually do a formal flush between veg and flower. But, for pre-harvest I pretty much just do not add much of any nutes when watering the last 2 weeks. Just how I do it...many schools of thought and differing opinions out there. Beware of trolls for flushing questions...just fair warning.

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??

Hey,
I use canna range and boost until the end, so I'm still using boost for the last 10-14 days with just plain water . That's what they recommend and it seems to work for me. I think its the same principle for molasses, your adding sugars/carbs just in a different way. Again though its growers choice. I cant see many people been dead against the idea.
They look great BTW.

Thanks Corey. I have the girl scout and 3 other strains right now but the girl scout really took off from the start. Wish the buds were bigger but I'm thinking it might make up in quality... And ok co grow. Were your trichomes amber when you harvested or did you leave them milky?? Also how was the smoke and taste of it?

Do you have pictures of that grow? I would like to see the comparison if you don't mind??
I'll be lucky to get an oz off of it from the looks of the bud...

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.
