Looks like a dieing plant. Why did you allow all the root mass on top of the soil? This the same plant you posted from 9-5? Wow she uprooted itself or ???

That's the thing I don't think I actually have to flush. And I don't think I even flushed after all. Just stopped giving it nutrients hut the same amount of ph'ed water. The whole thing started because I noticed the auto started getting the curled up tips signifying nutrient burn and thought that I had overdone it on a nutrient batch. So today I'm waiting for my ppm equipment to come in then I'm going to dump my water and mixes and start over with giving them nutes again

Curled up as in browning tips or leaf tips pointing down? I'm assuming crispy tips since you mentioned nute burn.

Correct. That's not flushing that's tapering.

PPM Equipment? What have you been using for metering your solutions?

"Dump my water"? Are you running a separate RDWC grow?

I like to use this chart from Aptus to let me know when I need to change feed ratios for the phase the plant is in....this applies to photoperiod plants. Not sure if Auto follows the same path.

Need more info. Is it all over or just the bottom leaves? Water/sun leaves?

I noticed your roots are out of soil. Hopefully you're watering correctly and aren't just creating a mudhole when you water.

Flushing, IMO, is pure broscience. Same with the whole " leave 'em in the dark for a set period". The ONLY time flushing is appropriate is as a last resort to your having flooded the rhizosphere with toxic levels of nutrient or pH in an attempt to reset the media/root relationship. Of course the fact that you have to flush at all is a discussion in itself but that's a whole other topic.

Tapering, which I define as laddering down the PPM's of your feed ratios, is a good way of removing ions already in the plant to achieve a smoother, tastier hit anecdotally speaking. Personally, I haven't noticed a difference but I taper more for peace of mind than anything tactile.

Your photo is close to ready if it is not ready...it may be ready.

Your auto is not far off but I can't see it, you can

>Depends what you like and what your growing...getting mine to full amber is a tough slog too. I prefer mostly whites and just a few ambers...last grow were pretty much all whites.

OK looks like I messed up my terminology. The hairs are almost all brown on my photoperiod. Not the trichomes. And the hairs on my auto are about 30% brown now

>If what you say is true about photoperiod being almost all amber you've put the plant into death spiral mode. I would not feed it .

????
Literally every guide I've read says that you want the trichomes on your plant to be amber before harvesting

[Rootsruler]

Tapering is a good way of depleting whatever nutrient that is left in the plants vascular system.

All amber trichs is going to make your smoke couch lockish depending on cultivar.

If what you say is true about photoperiod being almost all amber you've put the plant into death spiral mode. I would not feed it .

>It's probably safer for you to give nutes all the way to harvest, just taper them down the last 2 to 3 weeks.

I notice no difference to the smoke or effects either way and dropping the nutes on some large plants with lots of big buds can cause issues such as the plant aborting the flower and the beginning of mold.

Just remember an outdoor plant in soil will take nutes all the way till it dies or is harvested and those nutes are identical to your synthetic nutes.

alright. Its a couple days early but ill mix up some more nutes and water them tomorrow.
