Another trichome question

Alright so I know what to look for as far as the trichs go as they relate to the harvest window. My question is how do you plan for a flush period, extended dark period, whatever you plan to do in prep for harvest. Let’s say you want to flush for two weeks and starve for four- seven days. 18-21 days out what am I looking for? Will trichs have started to cloud? Half orange pistils?
Thanks!

Usually trichomes have started to get milky. Pistils have started to brown as well. It’s tougher to know when from seed, because it’s unknown if it will foxtail.
Look for signs of foxtailing, and feed Accordingly. Usually there’s about 3-4 rounds of foxtailing if there is any. You can kind of plan around that. But the 3rd round of fox tails, I typically give only water unless I know how much longer they’ll go.
Hope this helps.
