Gorilla Glue #4 on week 8 of flower today.. Per the seed distributor I purchased from it says 7-9 weeks for flower (49-63 days).
Today is exactly the start of week 8. How do you all think these Trinchomes are looking? I want to flush for 1 week prior to harvest. Should I start flushing today or wait longer to flush and then harvest later than week 9?

Pistils will continue to mature and recede as grow continues - weight will increase in last weeks too.
However , each plant is different as far looking “ ready to harvest “. As far as yours - the Blurple lighting often extends grow time vs. white light setups or HID . I would say another 2 weeks + or - to finish maturity. ( my opinion ) .

Continue feed as normal as it tries to finish up and harden off. ( they appear to be exhausting the leaf ).
No last minute boosters or other shit.

Check out pics of harvest ready GG4 and decide. Remember it is too easy to pull a plant too early / not fully finished vs. pulling a plant too late.

Yeah I was told two weeks left about 1.5 weeks ago so I had initiated flushing. So I should give more Nutes or continue flushing

Flushing isn't needed. You can't pull out compounds that are already in the plant. And if you do it's called cannibalism which leads to necrosis, which we usually try and avoid. It never leaves the plant, m the plant just starts eating itself.

Just lighten up on feed. There's no need to purposely starve a plant when it's gaining the most weight.

We don't try and kill our tomatoes before we harvest, and we sure as hell don't try and starve all out food crops, why would we do it for our medicine?

Great way to put it. I’ve just heard so much about it thought ppl did it. I gave Nutes. Hope it’s all right
