So I've got a couple plants that are in flower right now but I have 1 that is ready for harvest now I'll post a pic but I trimmed away alot of the fan leaves after the buds hit a certain point and almost all the tricombs are either amber or milky and some are black it's definitely cooked for a while I've only used organic fertilizer and fox farms big bloom plus some molasses but I watered it 1 time with fox farms tiger bloom i used 2.5ml for 1 litter of water but since then I started flushing it I've only gave it pure water twice and the dirt seems to be running clear should I continue to flush or will it be okay to Harvest? And do it y'all have any tips for when I harvest like should I leave the plant in the dark for a few days or harvest at night just wanna make sure I do it right this time.

i think you still have some time. Also, drop your temp to 72/75f and let those colours get out

The 1st pic is a leaf which I know they usally matyure alot fast but the second pic u see it straight catalyst I'd say the tricombs are 80-90% amber there's hardley any white 1s left and my temp stays around 55% relative humidity and 78°F I've been using a heating mat to warm it up a few degrees since it's winter where I'm at rn I think the buds stopped growing like a month ago not sure but alot of the leafs are turning yellow and dying now.

lower the humidity to 40-50 lower helps makes dense buds and helps preventing rot..

well you been flushing so the leaves will start turning yellow.

In all honesty i wouldn't of flushed it and just gave it water instead of feeding. This way the nutrients in the soil would of gotten used. IMO, this helps when you chop her up, because the plant still has sugars in her to process during the drying process.

Yeah I havnt flushed I've just been giving it water only for the past 2 weeks but the humidity seems to jump back and forth when I water them I took out the heating pad to drop the temp and I started 12/12 from seed it's a micro grow kinda but it's been in flower for about 3-4 months I believe and I waited until the tricombs matured before starting only water just wondering how long I should do this for or will I be okay to Harvest now since I've only used organics the whole grow oh and I'm using a self watering planter

The buds did smell super strong at 1 point and was super sticky but now they feel kinda dry not sure why and there's alot of tricombs that are pure black but I'd say almost all of them are amber colored there's a few milky colored 1s here and there but not many and idk if this makes a difference but all the plants are hemp

Lol that's what I've been thinking because I don't want it to be over cooked I just wanted to make sure that it was okay to Harvest since i was using organic fertilizer wasn't sure if I had continue to use only water to pruge out the bat shit lol and other stuff cus I know when using chemical fertilizer u gotta flush for a week or two before harvest and should I clip the main stem and hang to dry or cut the bud stems individually or does that matter?

I’m not sure what your final purpose is with the hemp?
