HELP! Should I Harvest?

[DavShoe16]

Ending week 5 of flowering for these auto flowers. Should I go ahead and harvest? The leaves are looking rough, I can’t tell if they are turning purple or what. They were previously either light burned or nutrient burned previously as you can tell by the burnt and curling of the tips and edges. Buds look great, although the sugar leaves are getting some tip burns. Haven’t seen much growth, should I just go ahead and start the flush process and give nothing but water from here on out, then last three days cut off lights? The one that is yellowing and purpling on the leaves is Purple Punch Auto..

Tough one to answer, I like to harvest when there is just a few amber and the majority milky trichomes. From your pictures they do look milky but I do not see any amber. How long have they been in flower?
I would harvest a branch and test, but they do look very close.

Lookin good, I think you could let em go a little longer and get some more out of em. How do your trichomes look? That's the best way to judge their ripeness. I'm the wrong person to ask about end of grow flush because I think it takes from the harvest by not feeding them. If you do a good cure it sweats out all the crap. As for the dark period before harvest I've been hearing alot of people talking about it but haven't tried it myself.

Did you check the trichs?

[DavShoe16]

They are mainly all milky I’d say

Mainly? The other ones are clear or amber? More amber trichomes gets you couch lock and milky only gets you an energetic high.
