Any preparations in advance for kush harvest!

[cannayang]

As kush flowering, usually, As harvest, any preparations I should make for harvest in advance?

As your Kush plants begin to flower and approach harvest time, it's a good idea to start preparing in advance. Make sure you have clean, sterilized tools ready for trimming, and consider setting up a drying area with proper ventilation and low light to preserve quality. Monitor the trichomes closely to determine the best harvest time, and think about flushing your plants a week or two before harvesting to improve flavor. Taking these steps will help ensure a smooth and successful harvest!

When is the best harvest time? Why should flush the plans before harvest?

When they are ready. Don't Chop Early! Post pics when you think they're ready so we can maybe save you from chopping early. Flushing isn't necessary. And welcome to ICMAG.

"Flushing isn't necessary..."

Take this with a grain of salt...(See what I did there lol).. most people flush their plants. It certainly does not hurt.

Hey Lester. Good seeing you here.
Flushing is one of those topics like organics vs hydro. Or LED vs HID. There's been studies and the consensus was it's not necessary. I do try to lower nutrient levels towards the end though since they need less.

What's the point of using a chat bot for this?

I've read it ad nauseum from you and the no flushing, over ripen crew on trollitup before y'all got banned. We will have to agree to disagree.

I don't know why you make it your life's work to convince people NOT to flush. It certainly does not hurt and might be beneficial to these people as you don't know wtf they are putting into these plants.

My life's work, lol. I don't give a shit if people flush or not. I was simply telling them it's not necessary. You can't flush anything out of the plants. Just feed them less towards the end. They don't need as much towards the end anyways. Starving them isn't going to help make better buds. But I could see how flushing might be beneficial if they were overfed.

You want loose scissors. Both for your fingers, and to operate. You may also want to dig out some metholated spirits from your decorating gear. The stuff often dyed blue, for brush cleaning. It will keep your scissors moving freely. Gloves are not for everyone, but most people come to realise they are a must for them. Getting resin off your hands is damn near impossible.
Sheet the floor, and think about a change of clothes. I have a clean mat near my door, to change at. Footwear is the main concern, but some bottoms would be handy, to keep the stink and green in the room where they belong.
Be aware your filter may be overcome. Trimming and drying is a real test for it, and so you might want someone to have a walk about the area, who hasn't been smoking or in the room. Just to check the situation. Many people trim at night and are thankful to see the neighbours windows closed.
Have enough drying space for the bud, and the waste. Don't bag the waste, or pile it high, or if will mold in a couple of days. Get it out the house, or dry it. I find the mushroom trays handy.
Don't get stoned. I have heard it all before, how people say it's fine. They all trim slow as shit, getting far too interested in individual buds, and not ploughing ahead.
Think about standing, and have a decent sized tray on a table to trim over. In easy reach for the drying rack/line/space. You are trying to set up a productive environment. Chopping off manageable sized bits, trimming over a waste pile, and hanging, without moving your feet much.

Music. Remember your hands will be too gunked up to touch anything, so you need to get a playlist or station chosen, that just keeps going. Think about lofi study music, or something a bit upbeat. Not very loud, to keep your awareness of things in the area intact. I might use lofi girl on youtube, and put my phone where my elbow can say I'm still listening, every few hours. It's not fast paced, but gets in done. As a newb, it's probably about right. Because you will get stoned, and need to pace yourself.
