How do you fatten up buds before harvest?

Light intensity

To some degree, more light translates to fatter buds and higher yields (you'll need to pay attention to the distance between your grow light and plants or your plant may suffer from light burn). Increasing light intensity is the most effective way to fatten up buds.

Is one week flush enough?

Soil growers should flush the longest, at 1–2 weeks. Coco coir growers should flush for a shorter time, around one week or less (watch to make sure your plant doesn't turn too yellow too fast, because coco does not hold on to as much extra nutrients).

During the pre-flowering and early flowering stage, the plants don't require additional watering. However, once the plants enter the peak flowering stage, the buds start sucking the soil dry.

Should I let my plants dry out before harvest?

Soggy roots at night will slow growth substantially. Do not water for one or two days before harvest. The soil should be fairly dry, but not dry enough that plants wilt. This will speed drying time by a day or more and not affect the quality of cannabinoids and terpenes.

Should I flush my plants everyday?

How do you increase trichome production?

As previously stated, moderate levels of nitrogen and phosphorus work best to sustain trichome growth to the maximum level. Dumping nutrients on your plant during the second half of the flowering cycle can result in reduced cannabinoid and terpene content, thereby lowering your bud quality in both flavor and potency.

Should I trim fan leaves during flowering?

What happens if you wait too long to harvest?

Waiting longer to harvest gives the trichomes ample time to develop. But the longer you wait, the more highly intoxicating and sedative your flower will become. This is especially true for indica strains, but even sativa strains can become sedating.
