When should I flush?

[Jay2341]

Hi guys am 8 week into flowering just wounding when should I start flushing

Start feeding water today. Do that for a week. They will slow down on the uptake of the water. Do not let your pots sit in a saucer of water. Let them drain good. Get ready to chop in 7-9 days.

I thought you start to flush once the trichomes is 80% gone a orange colour is that not true

I was just looking at the info that you provided. The picture looks like the plant is ready to start the flush. I am assuming that the tricombs are cloudy right now. If they are clear, then you can go longer. What strain is this? If it is a Sativa, you can let it grow longer. I let my Indicas and hybrids go 9-10 weeks before I chop. If you are growing in soil, the flush can be longer than a week. If it is coco, flush 7 days. You can post morE info on your plant, like the trics, strain, soil, ect and I can get a better idea. But just looking at the time and pictures, I would start a 7 day flush and that would put you at chopping at 9-10 weeks.

I understand. Being a haze, it can go longer. The crazy thing with Sativas is that some will not show amber tricombs. You may see some on the sugar leaves but not that n the flower. Has she slowed down on her uptake of water/nutes? If she is still feeding strong, go ahead and feed her some more. Just don’t give any cal/mag or anything with high nitrogen.

I’ve notice in the last week the buds start to swell I use to feed them every 3 days but now it’s they aren’t drinking it as quick as they was doing so that might be a sign to flush but not sure. The buds look good nice and frosty what I was gonna do is feed for 2 more weeks then flush it but not sure is that to long

I think that would be too long. With this type of plant you need to look at the pistils and calyx. When the pistils are changing from white to orange and the calyx has swollen, it is ready to flush. Plus you can factor in what you are seeing with your scope.
