Flushing to prevent nutrient lockout

You only know your medium is absorbing them. And salts attract salts.

However,

The plants will take up as much as you give them. Whether they burn or not is more strain and environment dependent.

Your description of fluffy buds may be simply from overfeeding.

This plant is pretty big and has been fed max 1.0ec (500ppm) Tapered up from a light dose fed every time since the soil in the final pot was depleted of nutrients.

Now she is being tapered down as she ripens and needs less.

I have found lighter doses each feeding produces best results.

For complete salt based fertilizer for an average i usually start at .6 ec and peak around 1.2 to 1.4 max and then taper back down after peak blooming.

But i have had 7.5 oz dry plant in 3 gallon pot max out at 1.0.
