This is what I've got going now. I'm wondering about how long its got and when a flush is necessary to get ready to harvest. 4 weeks into flower on 12/12.
Also I did use miracle grow soil before I had done much research. I jumped in with it but have taken very good care of my lady here.
Stages of the bud room...
Stage One --stretch-1-3 weeks before buds form...
Stage Two-- Hairs growing, bud sites forming -3-5-6-[sometimes seven weeks] weeks of bud
Stage Three-- Plant stops growing hairs...around with 2-3 weeks to go
Stage Four-- Hairs recede into Bud//Calyx Swell --1-2 weeks to go
Harvest time: No white hairs... Calyxes look like they will explode triple size//5% Clear Trichomes//85% milky //Maybe a few amber Tric's
On your way to higher times there Thrice.. Lol you didn't get you name from that Wii game did you, thrice dice?
Ask again in three weeks, meanwhile read up.
