Never flushed, should I start now?

Personal preference...probably nothing unless you over do it

No pics?

Pics of what? What for? I dont have any problems... Just was learning about flushing.

First post you mention possibly too much N...sounded like you wanted to flush it out...

Fish ferts on plants showing excess nitrogen is a mistake.

In my garden, canoeing leaves are worst where the lighting is inadequate.

I know for sure it has too much N thats why I wanted t flush it. I was asking if I should...It doesn't have burn or anything just some curling on some fan leaves.

Havn't fertilized them since, I think I will hold off for at least 2 weeks.

Right...so just stop giving so much...but flushing will cause more problems than it will solve

So hold off on nutes and dont flush? when would you resume nutes; if at all? Sorry forgot to add I am 3-5 weeks from harvest

@perdidobandito If you're using mostly organics, I'm not sure why you aren't just using plain water most of the time anyway?

When I did organic soil, most of my nutes went in before the plant did; bone meal, blood meal, composted chicken poop and 'Milorganite'. I'd add 1/8 strength Miracle Gro (this was twenty years ago) anytime I thought they needed it, and through the first half of bloom.

They rocked hard and no flushing was ever required.

This is just what I was looking for thanks.

Hold of on nutes until your plant looks better...3-5 weeks is a long time...5 weeks is only half way through flowering...you want to keep your plant healthy until harvest so it needs to eat...
How you feed it is up to you as far as organic or synthetic...

I use all water last 2 week plants get yellow by harvest but its some damn good smoke afterwards even without curing.
