    Pistils wont change color

    What strain is it ?

    We have white strains that never turn redhair untill drying.

    Your looking at trichomes that's all that matters.

    Wash- I think you're right, its about 6 1/2 weeks into flowering.

    LOC- I'm not sure of the strain, but I now understand that the pistil color is not important relative to harvest. Like I said, I just wanted to be sure as I've never seen the pistils stay white this long. So I'm guessing it is the strain.

    My plan is to cycle it through two more feedings and then flush it. so probably another three weeks-ish until I cut.

    Remember to cut your nutes back before you flush, otherwise you can get over feeding when you actually do flush.
    In the absence of nutrients in the water, the plant draws all its nutes from the remaining built up nute in the medium itself.

    Always cut back on nutes before flushing. :thumbsup:'

    Lookin' good!

    Whoa, I never thought of that. I was planning on flushing tomorrow, 3 days after a full strength feeding... should I just water regularly and flush once the soil dries up?

    Thanks for the heads up :smokin:

    I've recently learned that certain mediums store a lot of nutrient along with that water. Heavy feeding can put a lot of nutrient "on reserve" in the medium. If you take away that water based feed all together, the plant reverts to taking it's nutrient from the medium itself. This can possibly cause a nutrient burn and prolong the flushing process. Try cutting your feed back significantly before doing a full on flush and you'll notice that there is less stress on the plant.

    All the best,
    Bob.
