Harvest - when to start flush

Hi all - this is my third year growing outside here on cape cod - seems the first 2 years I didn’t time my harvest correctly and some of the plants started to get moody - )I mean MOLDY) ya these guys really took off - could be the long hot summer with little to no rain - I used Fox farm 3 step from the start and watered with a soaker hose - any advice on when to start the flush- and wondering what stage my plants are now - when to harvest etc. - thanks in advance - nick

Many weeks to go. Not sure when your season ends, but you’ll likely go to first frost. I wouldn’t worry about flushing.

Welcome back! Start nute restriction in the final 2 weeks. Judge it off pistils or trichomes. Pistils will be 90% red at the two or three weeks till finished landmark (usually, no plant has an exact timeline) Trichomes will be mostly cloudy (again usually) this is as good a time to stop feeding as any.
Your plant doesnt look to be too far into flower, couple weeks at most yeah?

Water only the last couple of weeks finish up around the 1st frost. Good luck :v:

I don’t flush. Just one more thing I would forget to do so I don’t! I keep everything as simple as possible.
