Flushing

I’m growing cookies x OG hybrid. These buds don’t get huge, they’re already harder than any flowers I’ve grown. It’s not about how big and fluffy you can get the colas imo
Correct it’s not about how big and fluffy they can get.

it’s about the quality of the end product but ultimately it has to be worth your while growing it otherwise what’s the fucking point for 3G of solid nugs.

If you’re feeding more than 1,000ppm per feeding, you will probably need to flush. Nutes leave residue behind in the soil. I recommend testing the ppm of your runoff routinely. I used to feed my plants way too much, and even though they didn’t burn, flushing was essential. One time we measured my runoff and it was over 1800ppm. This was also ten years ago, I’ve since learned how to feed. In the last 7-10 days, water your plants and see where the ppm is at. If you’re above 30ppm, rip up the top soil and run water through until you’re under 30ppm. Then let the soil / medium slowly dry before harvest. Before you chase me down with pitchforks, I live in a weed-centric city, and have worked with some professional commercial growers. These guys all feed their plants way too much. They grow the biggest buds possible. They all flush too, even today, if one of them doesn’t flush a harvest, it’ll sell for $250 / pound because it’s burning black. So I guess it really is a matter of how much you’re feeding, not whether flushing works or not.

:lol:

No, you’re wrong. This isn’t a healthy debate, I supplied the OP with proper advice, based on knowledge and plant education. I’ve made every mistake and learned from all of them since 2007. My advice is sound. There isn’t a reason to feed the plants in the last week before harvest. Monitor runoff ppm, water accordingly.
No you’re wrong.
