DWC 5 gallon in 4inch net pots
Flower day 51
Ph averages about 5.7
PPM averages between 750-1000
Drinks about a gallon a day of water
Add nutrients in about every 3 waters
Every 3 days or so I add
Calmag 2ml
Hydroguard 2ml-3ml
FF big bloom 4 tsp
FF grow big 2 tsp
FF tiger bloom 1 tsp
FF cha Ching .25 tsp
Every other water I include about .5 tsp or so of FF microbe brew
Currently under 12:12 with bestva dc 2000w and bestva 1800w
In 2x4
Night temp around 70ish
Day temp around 80ish
Using scrog, fim, an lst
Harvesting in about 7 days, depending on how far I can stretch this last feed. I only have enough nutrients for one more feed and then I’m switching to advanced nutrients for another grow if I grow again. I don’t want to stock back up on advanced nutrients to go another few days
Also, what’s your guess on the yield

She is telling you she dosen't want high ppms and the end is near I say about 2 weeks. Also 6 inches is pretty close. Taper off on the nutes and give her just water for the last week. You should be good. You can tank me later noob bongsmilie

Id leave more than 7 days if it were me!
Problem is I may not have enough nutrients to go an entire extra week. I’m assuming I’ll be out of grow big and big bloom come Tuesday. That feed will get me to Friday and I’ll flush for 3 days or so since it’s dwc. 10 days maybe I can go from here

Your plants don't need nutrients but they do need time. They have been fed plenty, and show several signs of over feeding. The only bud picture I can actually see is totally covered in fresh white hairs(stigma) which means the plant is NOT even close to finished growing. I wouldn't harvest that plant in under 2 weeks, but it sure looks like it needs over 3 still.

When looking at all the hairs on them they come to amount 50%. The lower buds are all orange while the top buds still have white, especially at the top of them. The crystals have a mix of clear and cloudy and about 1-2% amber

agree with thundercat,couple weeks minimum,can you maby just keep topping up tank with water after you run out so there is still nutes in tank but watered down until chop-just an option but as thundercat says its time they need to finish,if you chop too early youl regret it!!

Honestly take the advice given.
You've come all this way, this is where some folks fall down, chopping early would be a mistake.
All the weight is going to pack on in the next few weeks.

Forget amber as a sign when fresh white pistils are still appearing.

You dont need nutes at this point maybe 1/4 of the recommended amount. Then feed just water the last week. But yeha your plant needs at least 2 weeks.
