chuck ur just a KNOW IT ALL Bud.. post some pics of ur shity buds.. stop talking and SHOW IT THEN

i have a feeling.. all the people who tried FLUSHING.. started flushing to early.. and saw a shitty harvest. and never went back.. thats WHAT NEWBS DO

if u do 3 years. 14-15 crops of 4000ws of lights.. 2000 for flushed 2 for unflushed.. and guess what.. the flushed tasted better.. smelled better.. and didnt need half as long of a CURE to be were it needed to be potency wise. but .. u start flushing too early and u get shity results.. start flushing LATE into flower.. when ur waiting for the trichs to make that medicine.

but 90% of growers here. especially. pull the second they have a chance.. ooo does this look done.... wooops i already chopped half down.. fuck it. looks good enough..

Patience For Patients .. the best meds are grown by someone who DOES Experiments and TESTS,, not by someone who READ ABOUT IT.

im just going to guess.. CHUCKs from CALI or CO.. cause those cats down there .. man they think they know everything.. just cause your states cool with it . doesnt mean your BRAIN IS BIGGER THEN MINE BOSS.

I think that new growers tend to over feed. I saw pics of dark green slightly clawing leaves. as I mentioned, that's a large portion of the fowl taste and yes flushing would help that particular plant taste better.

a properly grown plant will not benefit from flushing. as I mentioned tobacco growers, wine makers etc. I don't mean Marlboro, they don't flush because it doesnt benefit. again nutes are good for the burn qualities and will always be there, unless you have no ash?

my landrace sativas will foxtail like crazy if I stop feeding. stopping the nute flow isn't good for the final product weight and density either
holy crap look at the leaves again fella can u say RIPE end of life been growing this for 2.5yrs.same thing every time.probably cuz im newww

So, since you sound like you are pretty smart....
Go ahead, and tell us your method for flushing...
and if you do flush... how would you do it outside? Outside plants do or do not need flushing ?

I'm serious... teach me: How to Flush...

Taste is a personal thing... flushing for taste... I've tried it... it seriously made no difference...
So, I always say: Flushing a waste of time...



Not Curing... I cure... to exact 62% Humidity...


What is your final RH of your dried and cured weed?


So your flushing is a "Profit" motivator ? Your customers want flushed MJ... and are willing to pay more?

Look... flush all you want... I am not trying to stop you, anyone can do anything in my book in their pursuit of happiness...

Flushing for me... is a waste of my time... Go on... waste time any way you want... I don't care...

I do want to understand your step by step method of flushing... "Teach Me" please...

If you pour copious amounts of water through your soil how can that improve your taste...of your bud....

So, don't be a dick, don't stir the pot... just tell us how to flush to make your mj taste better...
who said anythig about profit?i dont like to smoke any extra anything ,tool if u dont think flushing works then go on with your cough,sore throat,runny nose,snezing,watering eyes all of which u will get with excess nutes.

So,Please Explain how a apple tree unflushed is different from a MJ plant unflushed? Somehow the theory of flushing doesn't apply to fruits and vegetables?? Do some research on leeching, that is where the flushing myth comes from.

If anything, My quote make s the most sense of all, It shows how stupid flushing really is.

Oh, And i almost forgot about how Nutrient companies feeding schedules are law and if they say something, it must be true. JEES, that alone shows how gullible you are.
yeah bcuz fruit trees and annual plants are the same.havent u seen a tomato orchard b4?

go look up ION, look up "how plants uptake nutrients. Learn that and then tell me flushing makes sense.

then tell me how a apple tree fed the same nutrients doesn't need to be flushed, but a Mj plant does. Just because 1 is a fruit and 1 is annual doesn't explain your logic.

so if u remove nutes avail to the plant and the plant scavenges itself for food explain how theres not less nutes in the plant?

I posted it on the last page, you obviously didn't read it.
I just wouldn't starve my racehorse 2 weeks before the race. it isn't going to be at it's peak, it's going to be weak. I also wouldn't overfeed my horse, i keep him fed just what he needs to be healthy.

flushing is when your plants are burnt
otherwise, just slow down on nutrients towards the end, not to get "excess" nutes out of the soil but to just save money
on harvest day, don't chop during the light cycle, give the plants 12-36 hours of darkness then chop. I usually just wait until right before the lights turn on, then cut them down

what the plant does each night is stores away enough carbs to do its night stuff, and then when the lights come on the starches go back up into the plant and is what will give you that "chemmy" taste

to avoid extra starch just chop before lights on or whatever

seriously people thought i grew organic , and i say no i don't...
then they say well you must leech/flush very well, and i still say no
what i do, is never over-feed, and make my plants happy and green. I follow a 9-3-6 or 3-1-2 NPK ratio the whole grow and gradually increase feedings. Once a month I leech to get excess salts off the roots and allow them to uptake more. Leeching is just 3x medium size worth of water run through (example 5 gal gets 15 gallons)

at the end, flushing would be the worst thing, cause you want your plant to reach peak maturity or ripeness when you chop it, and how could you do that if it doesn't have any nutrient to feed from?

another question that made me quit flushing, do fruit growers or vegetable growers flush their crops? Fuck no!
