Does a single molecule of myrcene have weight? Yes or no.

Yes.
By all means, feed your plant till the end to get any molecules you might miss out on, that is a negligible gain. But, when you tell people that they should not flush, be sure to tell them the benefit can't be weighed on a scale.

My point still stands, if you can't see the increase in weight, and there is even the remotest possibility that it makes it smoother, which the COPD patient's testimony indicates, why not flush?
Can one of you just directly answer this right now?

Frantic un-cited claims, followed by "I speak 3 three languages", threatens fist fight, attempts reading comprehension, fails, declares victory. Promptly runs away crying. Have I summed everything up correctly?

you actually smoke the leaves , when you trim your buds , you just trim the point of your leaves the reast of the leaves stay's in the inside of the bud .
This is why you dont want to give too much N during flowering , this is stimulate your plant to grow more leafs , and will get your very leafy buds that tend to taste bad.

there . explained ..

unless of course you trim and cure properly..the amount of leaf to bud ratio is negligible.

stop being a crybaby and step up with citation otherwise, STFU!

yes i know that man :P i was just "trying" to be funny in that one lol :P but the last part is true . if you give too much N in flowering, you leaf budy ratio is not that negligeble , and a good example of that is the first post in this topic . that bud's are leafy as hell ;)

I would gladly flush any plant at a patient's request. I would do anything a patient wanted me do with their medicine, I am the plant tender, not consumer [of that plant]. Shit I would even do some silly hippie ceremony If they wanted me to.


I already agreed with you, the weight is unnoticeable, but the chemical reactions and synthesis that occur are highly important, keeping this going until peak time is our goal. If you already have a plant near peak and only a few days left I can understand why feeding it would be silly.

People talk about doing it for two weeks though! That is silly.

It is a very common/(and retarded) belief/practice to stop feeding nutes and flush only during the last 2 weeks before harvest, this is based on the notion that we are removing nutes from the plant to improve taste and reduce harshness. The result of this practice is that the plant starts pulling stored nutes from the leaves and the leaves start yellowing.
But, we don't smoke the leaves, we smoke the buds and the buds don't yellow they stay healthy alive and green till the end because the plant is pulling the nutes from the leaves, So how does this popular practice remove nutes from the buds that we smoke???
Can you explain this pls? And, can you please provide citation for your claim.

Not going to go find a citation, but it's pretty common knowledge that plants pull nutrients from the larger leaves first, all the nutrients don't get pulled out at the same time, the young leaves get affected last so it makes sense that their nutrient levels are lower even if they aren't as yellow. Leaving it longer will cause the bud leaves to yellow.
But like I keep saying, I'm really not defending the taste/harshness argument.
Now can you answer my question in post 122.

Growing leafs is what i am trying to accomplish, the more leaf, the more bud. I don't give to much N, I don't give to much K either, i give the plant what it needs to be healthy and stress free to the VERY END. THIS makes for the best,biggest frostiest buds, Then i take the ART of drying and curing and make them even better.

you need to look up source and sink, Meaning a leaf is either a food provider or a food storage unit. Learn basic botany before you try and have a conversation on something you don't know.

Have you ever heard of bud to leaf ratio? More leaves != more buds.

That I can agree with, but I'd have to see a link to show that the chemical reactions stop when you stop feeding. Terps continue to change after harvest after all.
