Harvest/Flushing

Hi Everyone.
Any help would be appreciated. it’s day 64 of first autoflower grow.
All conditions I think are correct. Temp, ph, airflow, rh, ect.
I think I may have started flushing to early, as my thoughts are they need one more feed. But as I noob I’m probably wrong. Still a lot of white pistols more than brown. And from what I can see on the
trichomes they are still white.
many thoughts appreciated. Cheers

They don’t look done enough to me to have leaves that yellow all the way up to the top of the plant. I think they probably need feeding and have a good 3 weeks to go.

Feed them. Weeks to go still. Flushing is not necessary.

Thanks very much , Will they be damaged at all by the yellow at all and Will they still continue to fatten up. Sorry this my first ever grow. Cheers again

They won’t photosynthesize as well with less chlorophyl. You probably cost yourself some yield, but I would expect them to fatten up some still as long as the leaves don’t get worse. It’s a learning experience. You won’t yield a ton here probably, but given you grew it yourself it’s going to taste pretty sweet. You will probably even convince yourself it’s award worthy Your results will likely be better the second and third run through.

Thanks very much for your insight.
I will feed them again today….
Thanks again

Lots of white pistils. I'm doing a run of autos too. I have probably 2-3 weeks to go and I'm at day 93

That was my thought. White pistils.
Day 93 wow. That hardly sounds like an autoflower. Can I pplease see some pics…
This is my first ever grow.

Sure. Here's 2x Northern Lights Auto, a Blueberry, and a Tangerine dream. Excuse how small they are, I beat the crap out of them.

what is the appeal of growing autos indoor? I understand growing them outdoors when the days are too long to induce flowering but you can make any indoor plant an auto by just changing your lights to 12/12.

And they're definitely autos...all hit flower right around week 5 and have never been in 12/12. I started with 20/4, spent much time in 18/6 and now am working 17/7. They'll be done when they're done...still have some time though.

It's just the seeds I ended up buying first. After I go through these seeds (at least most of them) I'll moveover to photoperiod.

Damn dude. They look amazing.
You must be happy. Hopefully I can correct the mistakes I made for my first grow and my second run will be looking like that…

It was my first run. I did everything wrong in an attempt to learn how to do things right. They were transplanted (people say you shouldn't), they were topped or FIM'ed (that's why they all have a few 'main' colas)...they're tiny. They've been over watered, over fed, locked out, adjusted, etc. They're not big. The biggest is 22" or so. But that's OK. I've learned a lot and after I harvest these, I'll be very happy to have a do-over.

So, don't worry about how tall they are.

Ignore breeder timelines when growing out your plants. They do more harm than good. Plants finish then they finish. Your plant has at least a month to go...keep feeding it, you don't want it covered in white pistils or your next topic after you dry it is gonna be asking why it smells like hay.

Thanks very much. Wow really a month! That will nearly be a 100 days from seed ….wow!
ive just fed them now.
Are you able to tell me why all the leaves have gone yellow and falling off.
thanks again

I've already told you that you should feed them and stop flushing. They're hungry man.

It's called cannibalism.

Because you have not been feeding them enough.

You should start another one because the damage on this one will most likely not allow you to finish properly...it ain't gonna grow more leaves and they are very yellow.
