    Ready for flush or wait?

    This thing is in week 12 of flower (I think...things got crazy here for a week or 2 and I lost track). I'm using the FF flower feeding schedule, added a bit of molasses. I'm still trying to get the hang of photographing with a loupe; my cellphone seems to play best with it. For the last pic I snipped a sugar leaf and put it on a piece of paper. Thoughts? Most look cloudy to me but I'm no expert. She is getting fragrant at times but it's not objectionable; roomie says it smells almost like Old Spice with a hint of weed

    If you see cloudy trichomes, then as soon as I see amber, I harvest.

      You need to look at the trichomes on the buds not the leaves. It looks to me to have some time left. Unless you want your weed speedy.

        Yes - I agree with Redwasp - bit more time. Pistils are still half white - half red. Patience.

        And about flushing - I would say yes time to start.

          If by flush you mean remove the nitrogen from the diet, then yes. I start flushing several weeks before harvest.
          Now if you mean overwatering her the last few days prior to harvest, I believe this is pointless unless you accidentally fed nitrogen too close to harvest date.

            Yes, agree with above advice, and you can keep giving the Molasses after you stop giving Nutes. Looks like at least several weeks left to me.

              Toker, I totally agree with you point about flushing. I stop giving her nitrogen once I flip her to 12/12. Water and molasses the last 3-4 weeks eliminates the need for flushing.

                I know I'm biased, but some how it just seems wrong to feed a plant something that will need to be flushed out of there later on. If we don't want it in the finished product, then why ever put it there in the first place?

              More pics. The trich photos are from a few days ago (my camera is acting up so I didn't get as good as I wanted today). All buds that I can see look good, no visible signs of rot which is what I was really worried about given that she's so bushy and all over the place. Some sugar leaves have burned tips but that was likely my fault from a while ago (lost my dosing syringe so eyeballed nutes for a batch and it may have been juuust a bit too strong).

                I know how hard it is to get a camera to focus on buds....but all I see are still sugar leaves trichs that will ripen faster than buds..
                Hope everything works well..

                  Looking very nice, molasses and water is all you need from now to harvest
                  1-2tablespoons of molasses to a gallon of water. will definitely help your nugs.

                    My current grow has been getting it's share of molasses, mostly cause of what D.a.a.s. says about molasses.
                    Holy good Lord!! I have not grown buds like this before, the things are ROCK hard, and growing huge!
