Nearly there i think?

Having read all i can find i just wanted to verify a few points with the people that know. Just checked my ladies and a ha happy days, now quite alot of the flowers are beginning to turn red, more at the bottom than at the top,checked my trichombes with ma lens and there snakey with a bubble on the end, nice!Look like little snail eyes or ears whatever they are lol.There only a few days into week 6 so does this sound right?( the plants started as clones and i dunno what they are exactly,choice of three)so i dont know the flowering time but im thinking 8 weeks ish is standard? and according to my EC readings the plants have slowed up on there nute intake, what do i do when the lower buds are red mostly, Have em off and smoke em or leave them alone? Also would this be a good indicator to think about knocking the nutes on the head maybe when i change the water at the end of this week an ive been really patient and i dont wanna wreck anything just now so any advice as usual would be greatfully received. x

Use your scope to look at the tricomes. When they turn from crystal clear, to more of a cloudy look, its time to harvest. If you want more of a head high, take them a little early. For more of a body stone, take them later. Also, a lot of strains really pack on the weight during the last two weeks. You can start flushing the plants during the last week to ten days. Some say that flushing will improve the flavor of the smoke due to leaching the fertilizers out of the plant. Just use pure RO water to flush. Sounds like you're gonna have a nice harvest. Smoke a bud for me will ya? *lol*

Also add a small teaspoon of suger to your nut water, it will make your buds a bit bigger and give them a sweet taste when smoked...
