Flushing

It’s important to looks at trichomes from the side too. They can look deceptively cloudy from the top because the clear head can magnify the opaque stalk under it.
I don’t look at the trichs from top view. Only side view. I like to be able to see through them, or see that they have a color to them.

I think flushing might help the medium if you have salt build to the point of toxicity let’s say the ppm on runoff is high. However if you have a healthy plant no need also can’t flush minerals from flowers once they are in.

Looks like they need to swell more the caylx need to get a microscope and check a good cross section of the plant
It’s hard to get into the plant. Maybe if I cut some of the leaves off. Most of the leaves are covered in sugar. They have been swelling these past couple weeks nicely. The plant is drinking a gallon of water a day now

Looks like it’s really put on some weight. From the looks of it I’d say you are in the window. Keep an eye on the trichomes and harvest when you want :).

Sweet! I might let it go a couple more days then! I did just water, want the soil to dry out a bit before. When it drys I’ll cut down
