Should I start over?

Thats not why I wash, or rinse my buds.

I do it to remove debris, dust, hair, bug poops, etc. Hydrogen peroxide can potentially kill spores that could cause mildew during dry and cure.

You might be surprised at how dirty the water is afterwards.

A ten second rinse is very different than a several day water cure.

I think I will give it a try when they are done. I am going to wash a few branches and compare it with the not washed branches and see which one I like more. I mean it makes total sense to do it , if in fact it doesn't do anything to the thc.

what they're trying to do is a corner cutting curing process. Also known as wet curing. I actually just wet cured over 2 ounces.
You just soak your bud in water, i put mine in mason jars, changed the water out twice a day until it was clear (about day 3-5) and then dry.
The reason they do this is because of the sugar leaves. That's where you get your harshness, but most of those chemicals are water soluble and thc isn't. You will lose all of your flavor profile doing this. but it will smoke smoother and be less noticeable.
I did notice the high was not near as long yesterday when I tried the water cured bud.
The more I read, the more I believe flushing is a complete myth. There is nothing you can do to take away from the harshness of the sugar leaves except to power through it or cure it. simple as that.
I don't understand the point of flushing. If you use all organic stuff anyways, and it still has to be broken down by the microbes in the soil to be absorbed by the plant, so why put your plant through the extra stress? like what is the actual benefit besides someone wasn't using their head one day and didn't think it all the way through? Last i checked we wanted those chemicals up there to make thc...
I'm learning with you dude. This is just from my observation and research. please correct me if I am wrong.

I was wondering what a water cure was. Thank you explaining that a Lil bit for me.

Hey gang
My GG4 started clawing yesterday. I lowered the feed to 900ppm on this lady but it isn't getting much better. In fact I think it is getting worse. What can I do? I was originally feeding it 900 ppm then I bumped it to 1090 ppm as per DynaGro autoflower chart. And it started to claw up a lil after about a week of 1090 ppm. Is this major problem? I really have no clue if it's gonna be detrimental to my harvest. Everything else looks good on the plant just some clawing on the bigger fan leaves. Is there anything else I can do? Sorry about the black lines that is my cheap plant ties lol.

ah ok, my mistake, i thought you were talking about the full flushing like some people do. I'm all for experimentation if someone wants to try it. I would never tell someone how to grow their stuff, I just think it's useless. I'm also seeing that if you're using a good soil on autoflower, nutes are useless as well. It's all about the ph from what I'm learning.
Hey, would you all be interested in a discord server?

Heat or light? too much of both maybe? Are you running them on 24? Mine did that as well. Won't they do it naturally toward the end of their life cycle, since it's an auto and all.

The gg4 fawkin hermied. I am devastated . It's only on a lower branch should I cut that branch off?

Heat never went above 84 and that was only for a day or two. It has been at 77-81 for 90% of its life. Maybe I have the light to intense. It's at 500 ppfd as per the ppfd app on 20/4 So it may be wrong. It could have also hermied a long time ago when I stunted it so severely. I am such a noob I never caught it smh. I didn't see any nanners or balls. Just calyx pistils I thought. So should I cut this branche off? Is my whole tent seeded now? This sux
See what had happened was I got too many plants in my tent and I didn't see this lil offshoot branch that went up behind another plant so I didn't see it. It was touching my big Fastbuds now I am worried that instead of the pound I thought I was gonna pull off of this 6 foot monster I am going to end up with a shitload of seedy weed. I wanted that sensimilla. Lol

Do autos get amber trichomes like photos?

Yes they most certainly do.

So the last few days have been rough. I think my GG4 hermed but I am not 100% sure. I don't see any nanners, but my tent is so crowded that I can't see all the nooks and crannies . I thought I found a baby seed in the lil baby tester nug I smoked that was attached to a branch that got bent when my biggest plant fell over last week and crushed it. I didn't realize it until the leaves started to die on that particular lil lower branch. So maybe if I had defoliated it a lil more or lollipoped this problem wouldn't exist. Now on top of all that BS I am smelling this funky musky aroma that has me worried about budrot. I looked all the girls over as best as I could. I don't see anything but then again I never seen budrot before so I might be missing something. It smells like a funky fruit salad that was thrown out in the hot sun. Maybe I am overreacting and it's just how one of my ladies smells?

On another note I think the smaller Fastbuds Chemdawg is almost done.
I don't see any amber but they are cloudy.
