9 weeks is rather young to be considering harvesting, even for an auto.

Don't believe the timelines that the seeds company states but rather let the plant tell you when to harvest.

Can you post a picture of your plants.......what are you using for nutrients and how often are you using them?

As for flushing, don't waste your time as it won't do any good at all.

If I remember correctly in your other thread you flushed because of nutrient buildup and are now doing better. That's good. However, I tend to agree you're probably a little early to chop. What does she look like? I wouldn't flush, at most I'd just give her straight water the last little bit.

Also I read that I needed about 7-10 days of straight water so I planned to start watering now and flush in about a week and a half

Chop not flush*
Flushing is for toilets. From the pictures, they look happy and well fed.

When all of the pistils have turned color and receded it is time to look at the trichomes.

If they are all cloudy with some amber you are in the harvest window.

Cheers.

Nutrients in the plant are there to stay. "Flushing", only removes what's in the soil. The consensus is to "flush", only when you have nutrient buildup in your medium.
I wouldn't say that's the concenses. Theres a million threads and articles and studies about this subject so let's not start another one on the op's thread.
