Ok so i think my girls are going to be ready in the next couple of weeks maybe a little more. about five percent of the hairs have turned orange. when should i start flushing out.

if i remember rightly you can buy flushout but i don't know if thats just for hydro.

if your on soil and haven't been feeding them copious amounts of chemmy ferts you should be alright just feeding them water for the rest. they'll use up what stores of minerals they have, some leaves will start to yellow and drop off but thats cool, just the plant making the most of what it has. if you want to go crazy go to a supermarket and buy a shit load of spring water and water it with that. you been letting your tapwater stand to dechlorinate?

I gave them a fert feed today (ionic soil bloom organic) some of the leaves on one have already started to turn yellow and die that one if the most mature. btw now the pistils have started going brown does that mean im close to the end.

Ya balancing neuts I found to be quite tricky - remember to be patient and allow the plants to absorb and react to what you give them.

It takes a bit of practice but I always preferred to err on the side of caution, i.e. under estimate rather than overestimate

And hey, if ya think ya know something - stick it in the Wiki

I'm getting so exited about harvest now some of the hairs are orange it's looking like normal weed and the buds are so huge one has a large main cola thats so really dense and aother that has a nice cola but alot of fair sized lower buds aswell its really light and fluffy quite sativa and another that's really short and bushy i topped it so it has too main colas its less developed than the other two but its looking to be the highest yielder lots of long fat sticky buds i cant believe my grow is going so well after killing about three previous goes in the first weeks and i was hoping for maybe 2 or 3 ounces off the lot but looking at them now theres already at least 4 or 5.
