Should I do same mix nutes but less water as water will run off sooner or no?
Also not even during last week?

Never starve a plant. There is no sound scientific reason for flushing.
A critical look at preharvest flushing
Pretend the flush didn't happen...same nutes as usual in the same amount of water. Like a corrective flush, it would end with nutes. Because we never starve a plant

Hey hey, sorry for lack of update guys.
I have been crazy busy between work and planning much needed vacation.
Girls have been good and being fed as regular schedule so there wasn't much to update anyways.
Then this morning! *drums*
I find new pistil growth in the big girl!
Little girl and the big girl has been maturing/fattening up quite well and I thought they are about to be chopped down soon then I saw this.
You can kinda see them in the pics.
They are brand new pistils growing out of the buds. Is this normal? What do I do now?
Sometimes when plants get into late flower they start to send out new pistils and sometimes even new calyxes on the colas (called foxtails). It can be genetic or caused by stress, but I would ignore them. Can you get closeups on your phone so that we can really get a look at the trichomes even without a loupe? It would be helpful.
Since you're looking for couchlock from these buds I'd say you still have some time but you're getting close!
I'm guessing that the crispy leaves are a result of the nutes in the soil and what you're feeding them as well. If you can find some soil without nutrients where you are I really suggest that for your next grow!

Sorry for the delayed update.
Here are the pics of main colas.
First 2 are the main colas of the bigger PKA and the last 2 are the main colas of the smaller PKA.
I am thinking about chopping later today or tomorrow. What do you think?
I knowwww! I am just hoping for food abd naps. Food and naps, that's what I really want hahahahaHope your vacation is a dream one

Without trichome pics it's really hard to tell. Why not take a sample from a bottom bud and fast dry it in a toaster oven and see what the effect is? It will taste harsh and green but that's not what you're testing. See if you like the high 15-20 minutes after you smoke it.

That's what I was forgetting! I knew I forgot to tell you something.
I took off couple of popcorn nugs from the bottom on Monday and sampled them yesterday.
They were fantastic! I throughly enjoyed the mellow giddiness.
It was blissful to say the least
Then chop away! And remember, do your research on drying and curing. It can be just as important as growing!

I decided to go with wet trimming vs dry trimming as I figured it would be less messy and I had the time last night.
I am slightly underwhelmed with the yield but it it my first grow as well as they were autos so oh well.
I have been doing some research on how to dry and cure them and will follow the "regular" method per sayyy.
That being said, thank you so much for all of your help guys specially @AngryBird & @InTheShed you guys were a tremendous help!
Glad to be here 
Lovely harvest

We do what we can! Congrats on getting your first crop to harvest 
.
Are you planning on another grow soon? If you are I'd try to find some soil with no nutrients so you can control what your plants get and when. Keep us posted!

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of closure.
I thought I wrote one but I guess I never hit post.
So the girls finished at about 2.5 ~ 3 oz dry weight (roughly eyeballing, no scale here as I don't need one)
Which I think isn't too bad for first harvest with 2 autos.
I just started a new grow with 4 GrandDaddyPurp, which all of them succesfully germinated via plate and paper towel method; and they are potted in their first pot (they are feminized non-autos so it won't matter with repotting this time)
I will start a new journal with pictures soon to keep y'all updated.
Thank you again for your help with my first grow, I will be asking more advice with my new fem GDPs
P.s. this is how they looked after being dried and cured

Thank you so much, I am on my way to start the new journal.Nicely done BD! Congrats again on the harvest
Now that I am done with this anyone know how to mark it finished?
You click the Report icon below your post and let the mods know that this journal should be closed. They just move it to the completed grow area, they don't actually close it.
