pic's are so much better with the HPS turned off, shows the true colour

The trichromes look very clear, thus you may have several weeks to go

BTW: can't vote on your flushing poll.....as flushing is not required, save yourself the hassle

Isk i understand about the tric's part but I do have to say I completely disagree about the flushing part. I have had soil bud that was not properly flushed before and all's it did was cause headache and harshness. I do not want that in my bud .Flushing also helps bring out the flavor of the bud and helps give you the effect your looking for with out the head ache . I have to say your are the very fist person i have heard say that it is not needed .Personally I don't want to smoke chemical from the nute's I am running .

I used to agree with you on flushing but it seems that a proper cure is what gives your bud smoothness and flavor. This is a topic of heated discussion here so do a little research and you may find that the science does not support your belief in flushing. I only support flushing now for toxic salt build up or other catastrophic screw ups. YMMV.

I'd like to get a couple natural lighting shots of the buds - it would do wonders for us harvest time "guesser".
And I'm also in the no need to flush boat - it is the cure that does what you like with the buds. I have an enormous dissertation complete with citations compiled by Riddlem3 that would likely change your mind on the real science behind that debate

this is what i was able to get trying to hold the light at the same time .Also I am growing a sativa dominant strain and would like the Heady high so im trying to avoid amber tric's Because from what i have read from you guys is that the more amber they get the more body high you get and it actually some what degrades the MMJ.Correct me if im wrong I know i have a lot to learn and would like to learn from others

Much gooder! Thanks for taking the time to post them. I flush because it is free to do so and. It's no sweat of your back and doesn't hurt to do so... I flushed my last crop for a week. Could I really tell any difference, no but my mind was at ease. I also left her in darkness for 3 days because it's supposed to help produce more trichs.

How many days since first signs of pistils? What does breeders website recommend (Add two weeks).. /if you have a lot of white pistils then probably not ready.

Nice plants though..
