Harvest Time + Flush?

It is a little early if you're going take them the full 80 days...most people do a 2 week or 3 week flush depending on personal preference. For a proper flush feed 3x the pot size of straight water. You are going to want a shop vac to suck up the extra water that runs off.
I just flushed in the bath with water I had sitting over night. I wasn't expecting them to go that long but it looks like they are. Trichomes are cloudy but seems to keep growing. My lsd-25 is fattening up now. I was going by what I saw flowering times lol. This is all new and thanks everyone for the help. The lsd-25 is on the left and haze is on the right. The back 2 are lava cake photos I was gonna flip when these were done. I started them a little soon cause they are growing fast.

so many different opinions on flushing i just keep lowering my feed strength and taper it off to a very low ec i only flush like that to fix lockouts I've also seen very little in terms of taste etc if i haven't flushed if i cure it long enough in the jars just my opinion mind

I ended up flushing the lsd-25 at week 8. I was gonna just finish with straight water mixed with some molasses and go with that.

Rx green did a study on flushing that show flushing didn't make a real difference either way and blind taste test preferred unflushed flowering when smoking. https://hightimes.com/grow/new-research-shows-flushing-plants-before-harvest-may-be-unnecessary/
I saw a similar thing at one point, where they tested the plant tissue before and after to look at nutrient levels and found it did nothing, they were the same after a week of straight water. Something about the way plants store and move food. So I have never flushed and have almost always had really smooth burning bud. (Except some curing issues one time lol)
