No food and flush but plant is still green?

Hey all,

I haven’t fed my plants any nutrients in about 2-3 weeks. I just started week 9 of flower and flushed 3 days ago with 3 gallons of water. How long does it take for leaves to start to yellow? And do I even need to wait for that to harvest? This is my first inside grow, thanks for the help!

Why would you want them to yellow. Flushing is a myth to start.

I don’t agree that flushing is a myth. Depends on what your setup is.

That said I wouldn’t start flushing until you’re basically at the early point of wanting to harvest. You seem to be on the right track.

Got any pics of the trichs?

Plants can have healthy green leaves when they are ready to harvest. They don't have to be turning yellow. I don't mean dark green curled leaves with burnt tips due to overfeeding. Just healthy leaves that a properly grown plant will have.

If you are in a soil just water them normally for another week or two.
No more nutrients just water.
Flushing is just going to get the soil saturated then it will need to dry out, I wouldn't do it.
Get us some clear pictures of the buds if you can.
Looks like you need another week or two IDK.
What brand soil are you using if it is soil?

Nitro heavy ( dark shiny leaf ) but since it is this far into flower it is what it is ... just water as needed ( and plant continues to drink ) ... scope your buds then decide.
