Thanks sunbiz for the input.. Ya, you can see in the first 2 pics even, there's tons of amber trichs now. I'd really like to flush it again though so i'm going to try to wait and harvest in another 6 days after flushing today. Hopefully they wont be too far gone then.. i cant believe how many amber trichs there are.. i hope its not from some abuse of mine.. I'm a novice and a little too "experimenty"... I'll post side profile pics soon and show you where i'm going to cut them. Only the top leaves are burned actually, around the top buds that are close to the lights. The plants are about 2 feet tall, i'm just going to cut the top 8 inches i think. CFL's just dont penetrate very far...

Purple Daddy, no thread jacking! So, i recently saw a post from Stinky Attic about that - if ur going by pistils, harvest time is around when more pistils are turning orange/brown than being replaced by new pistils. Basically they will start turning orange/brown, and new pistil production will start to slow and then ur close to harvest. but she and everyone else says the best why is by trichs. you'll have to ask someone else about how long it takes for them to turn.. mine seemed to go fast - they were clear for ages, then started turning milky, and in the last 2 weeks i started seeing amber. Now you can see there's quite a bit of amber, like 50% of the top buds..
