Whatsup everyone, I was just debating whether to start flushing or not. I am on day 58-60 of the flowering stage. The strain is Magic Bud and it is a small CFL hydro tent grow and to me it looks like its just about done, the trichomes look cloudy. I haven't had the chance to use a magnifier this time yet because I don't have one any longer so I was just going to see if anyone thinks it looks about done from these pics I took, I wanted to get closer but the camera wouldn't focus it in.

Flushing isn't necessary by any means. When you're growing a strain you have no experience with and don't really know how long it'll take, it's usually best to skip flushing the first time around imo. It's better to just not flush than to risk the plants stalling out from lack of food only days before harvest.

i always say flush, i dont like the way bud that isnt flushed tastes, burns or smells, its much better when flushed properly.

based on the pictures you are either ready to start flushing or you are waiting for more amber trichs if your not just start flushing now then, because your plants no longer have any growth pistils they mostly have turned brown which is obviously a sign of a maturing flower close to harvest time. doesnt seem like you have too much longer because its pretty ready, so give it a 2 week flush now if you dont feel the need to wait longer for amber trichs but i cant say they arent there since you dont have a magnifier, either way i know if you flush it now you probably wont notice much difference if you waitied a little longer for more amber trichs, it looks pretty killer at the stage its in now.

so all in all i say flush it now but by all means i havent been sitting watching it grow if you feel it can go longer then let it go longer.
