it depends how much water the plant is using but the top couple of inches of siol should be dry b4 u water. Or the plant pot should feel light.

Knowm - does that mean when you water you "flush" your plant?

save that seed she is a female stress seed if she has not seen pollen. Hemies get male flowers and will be yellow and noticable. You may have had a stress in the light cycle maybe when switching from veg to flower. Not always a bad thing and is how people make femalized seeds. I water everyday with a garden sprayer but every three days is alright if you dont have the time or hundreds of plants. I feed them at a constant ion consentration everytime to reduce stress. I only use 100ppm when your numbers are correct. Say if I was using earth juice I would use 60ppm grow 15ppm bloom 20ppm maxicrop and 2 ppm thrive alive green. You will not get a single yellow leaf if your conditions are correct(keep above 45F) and you will not need to flush just stop watering a week before they are done. I fed thousands of plants this mix from veg to flower and never switched numbers from veg to flower to reduce stress and promote growth. I grew single cola foot tall solid flowers with supercropped lower stems the size of my thumb. I have to leave yet another state right now but soon enough the fam. will be back. That is all they need and taste so good.

a drop of t.a. green is all for a gallon as auxins lock up. you can use more if you are half way through flower as they plumb nicly for a couple weeks. I only use at most two drops per gallon.

If it has male flowers it may cause a problem, yet at this stage in the flowering it should not really produce more. Keep an eye on it and you could pull the male flowers off so you dont have to scrap it. I think its a stress seed. If you get male flowers then just dont regenerate her.
