Hi all,

I'm growing a royal cheese auto under a 300w viparspectre led in Coco in a closet, it's at 2 month flower and I started a flush 6 days ago, the leaves have started to turn yellow and I'm wondering whether to flush again, harvest now or harvest in a few days after starving the plant to increase resin production and allow more of the leaves to turn yellow, all of the fan leaves have yellowed and have been removed, the main cola leaves are starting to yellow, the trichs look 70% - 80% cloudy and no Amber appearing yet from what I can see and by the looks of the pistils (70% - 80%) this plant is ready or nearly ready, general hydro trio nutrients were used throughout the grow. Any and all advice is appreciated.

Thanks :weed:

Hard to tell, but it looks like the pistils still haven't started curling in. The buds will fatten too, but it's really hard to tell with the pics. I have the same light sitting here I haven't tried yet. But maybe turn the light off to take pics, it might help us see better. Looks good though.

I mistakenly put trichomes when I meant resin, any advice on whether to flush tonight or starve a few days is what I'm after

Where did you get the idea that starving your plants increases resin production?

Read it on a few sites, apparently the plant thinks it's dying so kicks in resin production just like when given 48 hours of dark but idk I'm no expert nor do I claim to be that's why any advice is appreciated

Take the top colas off and give the lower buds the light for another week. Selective Harvest.

I think another week is due and 1 last flush possibly... But I'll do that when the time comes if I'm not advised multiple times to chop it before then lol tyvm
