    Default How long is too long when flushing w/ distilled water

    I have some diesel ryders that still look like they have some grown left on all the colas because new white hairs keep poping out, A lot of them. What do I look for when flushing to know its time to chop it.

    the pistils [white hairs] are a rough guide , but to be more accurate you need to check the trichomes [crystals].this is best done with a scope at least 30x mag [for me anyway].you can flush for 3 days or 10 days depends on your feeding schedule towards the end ,there is no set time.
    in the link is a guide that may help

    yeah, I have a 60-100x microscope, but that doesnt exactly answer my question. Is there a sign as far as looking at the leafs as to when it HAS to be chopped? I dont want to wait too long and the plant start to die from lack of nutes. Get what im saying?

    not really ???
    the leaves will not tell you when to crop but they will tell you when the plant is not getting what it needs.

    Do you know how to check colour of your trics? with a scope? Some people just wait till 70 percent ish of hairs on buds are brown. Also how long has she been in flowering? just use your scope and check colour of trics. leafy
