when do I flush in relevance to tricomes

[Zandor]

Ok...I understand that I need to wait until my tricomes are milky white with some amber in it to harvest. Although I also understand that I need to flush my plants 5-10 days before harvest. How do I know when to start flushing if my tricomes are not milky white/amber yet? I dont want to flush too early or too late.


Any suggestions

That is easer then you think.

What you look for is when you see your first amber trichome (if you have not stoped already stop feeding N now at this point.) you are about 10 days to 2 weeks to harvest for most strains. As you have posted this in hydroponics then you have it easer. You can use a product like florakleen from GH or Final phase from Advanced or clearX to flush your plants in 3 to 5 day's. When you see about 5% amber in your field of view with a 30x pocket microscope then you start your flush. The 5 days at max it takes they will be perfect.
