Closer. Week 8 of flower started yesterday. Thoughts?

Still no USB microscope. Hopefully today. Thinking the one on the left with the foxtailing colas (Tangie) is probably ready. Thinking of one last feeding Saturday and then flushing next Wednesday (DWC) and chopping on the 25th. Obviously I'll know more once I can get a good look at the trichs but thought it would be fun to get your thoughts...3 plants (from left, Tangie, Critical Purple, GG4). Auto, DWC, cal mag, micro, bloom, overdrive, Bud Candy, ph 5.5, ppm 1250 or so...IMG_1931.jpegIMG_1913.jpegIMG_1923.jpegIMG_1927.jpegIMG_1930.jpeg

Looks good!

You shouldn't be providing any nutes for around two weeks prior to harvest. If you don't flush all the nitrogen out, it can make your weed harsh.

OK thanks. My understanding is that in DWC you really only need to flush for a few days - does your 2 week recommendation apply to hydro as well as soil?

If using a top-quality fertilizer and run to waste you don't need to flush for two weeks. 3 to 5 days should do it. in flower, you shouldn't have that much nitrogen active anyway. At this stage flushing removes the phosphorous, if you don't get that out your week will taste like burnt matches.
