So week 7 flower: Purple Haze!

[Rkelly496]

Righto week 6 flower 2/3 days away from week 7 on a supposedly 9 week strain The Purple haze...

Have a few pictures of trichomes not the best as my jewlers scope hasn't arrived yet I'm thinking to begin the flush on week 8? Gives them a week to remove all nuites then 48hrs of darkness.

Don’t take it too early

Don’t take it too early

That's my estimate if I can I may let them run for 10 weeks flush on week 9

If I'm honest there like my baby's haha I check them everyday and feed when needed I have a feeling they need 10 weeks finishing sometime end of this month then flush an chop

Ok flush, cool deal but let me ask why? Because you read it somewhere... or your cousins half sister twice removed used to date a hippie grower.

Its impossible to wash nutes out of your buds - weed is an accumulator the plant takes up what it takes up and no amount of rinsing the soil or rootball can change that.

InTheShed No flush club <<< lab results comparing flushed bud versus unflushed buds...

but if you flush them go right back to feeding so your plants don’t starve as they are trying to finish up. Which if you ponder for a second longer ....... so I’m gonna flush all plants with 3 times the container size volume of water thru which doesnt make sense...... to correct a problem that doesn’t exist...... then resume to feeding again anyway so they don’t starve...... then what’s the freaking point???

Hello welcome to reality and our world!!! wake n bake and find something else to do

I stopped flushing about 3 years ago myself.

He is right I did read it somewhere so on week 9/10 shall I just place them in 24hr or 48hr darkness and chop

That’s what i do, cannabis produces terpenes during the dark period. So always chop at or right before lights on. Once the lights come on and the space heats up terpenes start gassing off. Remember terpenes are alcohol based and evaporate quickly under light and heat.

Righto picked 2 out here u are

I agree that one is the biggest and weighs a ton I'm having to hold it up with something but I feel the other one in that picture doesn't have as long to go there's another 2 very similar to the smaller one I feel haven't got as long as the first one

Some swear by it... others swear at it. Wood screw thru the trunk, flushing with ice water, 48 to 72 hours of dark, hanging the rootball upside down... whatever trips your trigger

plants look really tight, that’s gonna be premium stuff! Congrats on your garden!

Cheers man my first attempt at it too! Debating whether to stick to soil or try dwc/coco next see what I get along with

 

[Pennywise]

Coco is really simple but time consuming mixing and feeding daily

I wanted to try coco with dry amendments and just water/re ammend through veg an flower I used soil first time round because I was told its a peace of piss haha

 

[HigherTheHigh]

I agree with pennywise it's mega time consuming is Coco, it's like having kids to look after if you don't stick an irrigation setup on a timer

Just water to run out and watch how fast the plants take the run out back up.

You need to water heavily down the stretch to run out.

Once you see your run out stop being taken back up overnight, there should be a noticeable change in smells - thats chop time. Can verify with your loop or just chop.

You want that change in smell thats your terpines. You should be able to smell them when lights go out for like 10-15 minutes even with filtration on.

So I should water till run out on week 9 then chop around week 10 is that what your suggesting I'm getting confused haha
