Rinsing and curing before harvesting

Rinsing 1-2 weeks before harvest with pH-adjusted water (6.0-6.5). Aim: salt reduction, promote natural senescence. Signs that flushing has begun: 70% milky trichomes, first amber trichomes, yellowing of large fan leaves. Do not flush too early - yield loss possible. Aim for EC below 0.4.
