You know. I have always grown in soil/soiless. And what i have noticed is that my plants always get worse after a flush( 600ppm ). Maybe its just me. But i stop flushing. even with my synthetic runs. and i stopped having those problems. Looks like they had to much n then you probably said i should back down on the nutes a bit. When ever i use to do that, i always ran into problems. Once the plant starts flowering it says to it self "phuck the leave's its time to flower" So extra n is getting dumped in them. You need to keep looking at new growth to see if its still to much N. When u go by your leaves then flush your plants thinking that there to many nutes while not knowing your plant is hungry as shit. It is definitely a science and takes time to master.

But 5 weeks, i don't want to say just keep flushing because they might get worse. But, i am no expert. Hope everything turn out ok. :leaf:

I appreciate all the help guys. This site is an awesome recourse. I do have another question now on a different topic. Not sure if I should start another post but I'll ask here anyways .... Flushing before harvest...I understand that I'm supposed to flush for two weeks before harvest and I also understand that I should wait to see 80 percent hairs turning and amber ing of of the trichroms But is that when you start your flush??? How do you know two weeks in advance when your close enough to start flushing?

Most growers that have been growing for a long time will tell you not to flush. Flushing will remove all nutes for plant. Why starve your plant when it needs it most. Keep it green through entire grow including harvest. Give less N so they fully mature. 80% is to much 50/50 id perfect a lil less is still grear imo. I usually go out of 10 trichs. 3 amber rest milky give.or take.

I was under the assumption from what I've read and from other growers that without a flush your pot will taste bad

The end flushes are common sense. We are talking about flushing during plant growth to remove salt build up. Witch tends to happen more often with certain media. That's where the ill effects come into place. When you flush when not needed to. Just a flush period during growth can really hurt your crop. Its all about medium and container size also. Smaller containers its ok to flush, they get watered more often. Like i always say. Growing the best weed is a science. It takes time and experience. That's why every Nick, Joe and Bob are not producing top quality cannabis.
