New Grower First grow ever

[snerval]

I give her 1/2 dose/5L as recommended by the breeder for auto, so maybe it could be about light stressed.

Oops lol, this is the quantity for 5L, not the watering to one plant !
My pots being 11L, I water 2,750L to each plant when the top soil is dry and the pot feels light... I hope I'm doing it right.
By the way, should I up the amount of watering as the plants reach more and more into flowering ?

So, the royal dwarf is almost 4 weeks into flowering... according to the breeder's chart harvest time would be around november 3rd-10th.
It seems to me that she's pretty advanced, with nice bud formation and some brown pistils, despite the fact that she was probably stressed at some point. She didn't even stretched.

How do I know when it is time for flushing ?

Here she is :

On the contrary the jack herer is stretching right now nicely :

As well as the royal AK :

Miss amnesia haze is showing plenty of promising bud sites right now :

I'm happy so far with what is going in the tent, but I'm worrying a little because I never harvested a plant, so I'm afraid of making a mistake - again lol
Any advice is welcome.

Oh my, look what I found searching about flushing :
"Impact of different flushing times on quality and taste in Cannabis Sativa L."
By RX Green Technologies team

What do you think ?
Is flushing a myth ?


*edit
Since I posted this I've read the great post by @pop22 about the non-sense of flushing.

Flushing: The Myth that won't Die

Of all the garden myths that exist, I hate this one the most! I'll do my best to drive nails in its coffin, once and for all! So first, I'm going to give you a little information, then, DO your homework! This can't be answered in a paragraph, you need to get some in depth information. I'm...

So, problem solved : I will not flush my girlz !

Great job! You’re gonna end up with a lot of great cannabis. Just wait until you smoke your own for the first time. It’s a pretty amazing experience. Good luck the rest of the way!

Hey thanks for the compliment !
I must say i'm the first surprised lol
Regarding the ATTIS 200W I'm very happy with it, I run it in my 80x80 tent with no problem, so I assume it will do good for yours.
I tried to find information about the light ratio according to plant stage, but couldn't find anything but super complex data (at least complex to me )
I just used my common sense, that is starting at 20% during seedling, then gradually up along with the grow.
Have fun !

@draxcel
There's a mistake I did : I had a (too) big oscillating fan which was blowing too hard at the plants.
As a result the air flow altered some pistils on my royal dwarf auto (from white to brown - this is normal when the plant is mature, but back then it was way too early to explain it) -Can't remember where I learned this.
Nothing dramatic, but I immediately got rid of the fan and put 2 smaller clip fan instead, blowing from above.
Just wanted to share my experience ^^

I Heard that traumas either from too strong Wind or by touching something (like heavy Rain) turn the pistils brownish,I had as well that issue,nothing scary but to be aware of yes.
