I've moved the light to 9 inches from the tallest bud and 10 inches from most other buds. The heat right now is 76 degrees F, and 40% humidity. Pretty good conditions!

Ya I need to chop them on Nov. 20th or 21st or keep them going for another week+ until 29th. I think they'll be done, but I'm not going to rush them and wont cut them until they're fully done.
Sweet I hate that feeling of cutting the plants early... I always feel so bad lol

Me too. It's unfortunate I have to take a trip for a week during that time but if they're done I'll chop them, if they're not they'll get an extra week and will be at days 64-65ish of the 55-60 day expected window.

Sphnx what's your thoughts on giving the plants 24-48 hours of darkness right before the chop? I've always done it, but am interested in your opinion on it. Also, have you tried Light Addict's backbuilding method? I'm thinking of trying that in the next week or so.
I always do it myself
I've never tried his method, but it intrigues me

Update:
Haven't tried the backbuilding yet. I'm going to do some more research tonight on how much to snip off and try it tomorrow.

Update:
I took out my DSLR camera and took some good pictures. These buds are really frosty. Notice the HUGE calyx on this bud, it's insane!

Did the backbuilding technique on basically all of the top cola's. I'll post pictures again with my good camera in a few days to show the progress! 
Does it look like I did it correctly and took off the right amount? Any input is very much appreciated.
Edit: Not sure why it's making the first picture upside down but anyways it gets the point across.

What's everyone's opinion on flushing? When should I start and how much clean RO water should I give them if they are in 5 gallon smart pots?

UPDATE:
Buds are definitely getting bigger after performing the backbuilding technique.

What's everyone's thoughts on the best time to flush, how many weeks before? I plan on feeding with another watering today all the nutes plus molasses and epsom salts like usual.
They are looking great dude! That backbuilding did them well and that frost is getting ridiculous, great job man.
Generally you want to flush your plants the last week of flower but you can do a 1.5 weeks of flushing if you'd like to over do it a little
+reps to you buddy, you're doing great

I was gone for most of the day today and I came back and opened up the tent to find that most of the nugs have started to turn a slight tint of purple! Its starting!
Edit: Will try and update tomorrow with pictures.
