HYDRO Question about flushing!

The top part of the trycomes were matured, and the bottom part did not change the color of the pistil.

Then, do I have to flush for two weeks and pick the top?

If I flushing it, wouldn't it ripen the bottom?

What should I do? Please help me.
 
If by flushing you mean removing nitrogen from the diet..yes, it’s good to begin this process a few weeks before harvest. Well, flushing will not ripen the fruits, but time will.
I have seen people remove the tops and leave the bottoms to mature further. I’ve seen bottoms harvested early and just get tossed into the trim pile for hash/butter making. I tend to let the tops go until the bottoms are all caught up. I do not continue nitrogen during this process.
Hope that helps.
 
Flush without nourishment and remove the top.

And then you're telling me to nourish the bottom by feeding it back?
 
Probably best to wait it out.... if you are already removing nitrogen then continue to do so. Once you see the first signs of amber trics on the tops, then the lower (bottoms) should be ready by then too.

So you mean don't flush and wait for the bottom part to ripen?

I think we are talking about two different things here... I was saying the top of the plant and compared to the bottom part of the plant. The bottom section of the plant matures slower than the top section of the plant does.
You are just talking about a single tric, like when looking through a microscope? Ok, got it...it’s the heads that you want to focus on (the top portion of the tric). The stalk line bottom of the tric will stay clear.

Oh..... We were talking about the same thing.
Isn't Flushing just giving you water and no nutrients?
I have to flushing the top when it's ripen.
Don't you think the bottom part will not be matured if you don't give the nutrition because the top part is cooked?
 
Some people do that... I never do. I just remove nitrogen. The last week or so I only give molasses mixed with ph adjusted water.
