Hi All
This is my first harvest and I'm trying to estimate my harvest schedule to allow sufficient time for flushing. I am fairly knowledgeable in regards to thrich coloration on the calyx to determine when to harvest but I was interested to find out if the sudden slow down of water consumption is an indicator as to when to start flushing and preparing for the harvest.
Throughout the flower stage it's been a steady 1 gal every two days. In the last few days that has dropped in half. Thrics on the sugar leaves on the top colas of the largest stems are 50% amber and the calyx is clear to just starting to cloud. Other colas (not as mature) still have clear to cloudy trichs on the sugar leaves.
Can the reduction of water be an indicator when to start flushing?
Less Mature Cola
Most Mature Cola - Sugar leaves turning amber while calyx is still fairly clear to cloudy.
