When to flush?

[Earlygrower]

1st time grower needs a little help here please...

When do you all start flush? Do you start it when they are basically ready to harvest then just add a week of flush?

I’ve got these 3 photos taking their sweet time. Followed a GWE nute schedule and added a second “week 8”. I just watered tonight for my third “week 11”.

They are close but I don’t think ready yet and I’m willing to wait as long as it takes. Should I just keep at the low Micro and bloom (also started molasses 4 days ago)?

It’s a Coco grow with Advanced Nutrients Trio.

For coco you want to flush for 5 to 7 days. Knowing when to start is by watching your trichs for their ripeness (clear>milky>amber) that suits your needs. Don’t worry, they won’t turn 100% amber overnight, just keep checking the trichs daily until you think they’re at the level you want then start flushing.

Cool. Thanks! I’ll keep at the current nutes then and keep watching.

I don’t do coco, but you can reduce nutes slightly just to start teasing her into pushing more trichs. In my hydro grows, when the plant starts to reject nutes but keeps drinking h2o, I will cut my nutes by half. It’s when i know to start watching for the harvest window to open.

Hopefully some coco growers can chime in with their experience for nutes.

I think they’re close and hope to chop a week from this Saturday...

She certainly looks like she’s ready. Looks delicious. Well done 👍
