Should I start to Flush???

flowingreen05 · Jan 3, 2009

I'm in my 6th week since my plants showed sex and the hairs are now about 50% brown on 2 of them. I checked the trich's and they are about 50% milky 50% clear. Now my question is should I start flushing them now? and does this include not giving them molasses anymore too? Below are pics out of the four girls I think the 2 first ones are the same strain and the other two are a different strain. The first ones are the ones that have the brown hairs.

nice looking plants i would give 1 more feed with water then on there next water flush and then flush again for the week after so maximum time left 3 weeks .

When you say to feed them one more time should i give them ff tiger bloom and the molasses or just the molasses and keep the bloom out of it for the last one?

tess · Jan 3, 2009

i would give both but maybe a smaller dosage as you have a good couple of flushes until there ready yet.

those are some nice lookin ladies,what strain are they and are they from seed or clone,they look like clones to me

I got the seeds from a friend of mine who said that some of them were ak47 and didn't know what the other ones were. They are grown from seed. I started with 7 got 4 ladies so I was satisfied with the results.

Another question..Do any of you have an idea of how much more the buds will fatten up..i've read that they tend to pack on a lot the last week or two?

each strain varies it is really dependant on how the plants have been treated.

Wait to flush until almost all are cloudy. Use 3x the amount of water to the size of the container. Flush again next water with 1x-1.5x the amount. Harvest about 3-4 days after the last watering. You can still use molassas.

I have read that some people use molasses all the way up to harvest..will this affect the flavor in a bad way?

sanklovich · Jan 3, 2009

too much mollasses can definitely be tasted in the bud, it's best to be conservative with it to avoid that

^^^ I thought this sight was about helping fellow growers not being an asshole......
You coulda said something a bit more constructive

Anyway, I think they are lookin good. They will probably take a little longer then they are supposed to because it looks like they were put into flowering a little early.
Its gunna be some nice smoke either way. Im at the same point with my plant and just started it on all water. (trichs 80% cloudy 20% clear)
Im hoping to chop a week from today but I would like to see some amber on there before I do

yo loolagigi u should take ur opinion and shove it down ur throat with a fat cock. Do you feel like a badass when u come on here and bash other ppl's grows? Grow up and get a life. Lets see some pics of ur first grow??

As for everyone else who had constructive things to say thank you for all the advice.

they look pretty good to me but I'm thinking you might have longer to wait than you think. my guess is unless they are root bound you'll see a few more weeks of flower formation. :leaf:

Wont affect the flavor

techtoker · Jan 4, 2009

I've been using molasses my entire grow. I am close to harvest and I will post results. Plant is smelling sweet!

flowingreen05 · Jan 4, 2009

Ya I def think the process was slowed b/c I was using just cfl's before I got the 150w hps, but since the hps was installed they have grown so much better. I had chop one of the smaller ones due to it starting to hermie. I'll prob start flushing at the end of the week and we'll see how it turns out. Not quite sure when I'm going to stop the molasses yet...figure i'll just play it out and see what happens or maybe give molasses to one the whole time and not to another.
