no idea atall m8 sorry, why u ask that? Is that what uve done to something? not long i dunt spoze cuz the roots need O2 and co2[/QUOTE

i was just wondering about maybe flushing a plant by puttin the roots in a bucket with an airstone rigged up in it. and if it was possible to build a flushing system so that i could get them out of my room a week early and get the next plants in. but how good would it work? that is the main question...i was gonna make a thread but then i just decided on jackin yours lol.

Hey OneEyed, there's a cat on this website (a female one) who feeds her girls right up until the last day - no flushing either.) She then chops the plant at the base of the stem, then hangs the plant from a hook and leaves the stem in a bucket of water. This is her flushing technique. I think she does that for a few days then trims and harvests. It was last year when I read this and I can't remember what I was doing 10 minutes ago, so please excuse the fact that I can't provide you with a handy link...but she's on RIU somewhere....

Upon re-readin your post, for what you are talking, I am not sure the plant would develop much more in the last week though. I think it would stay alive though.

i looked into this a while back and the theory is sound but its a bit of a hassle if you've got more than one plant really i cant imagine how hard its going to be to keep the thing upright in a bucket of water once you've chopped its roots off haha

xmass tree stand modified to fit the slender bowes? Just a thought

That would be ideal, or two bits of 2/4 nailed to each other in a cross with leveling blocks on the undersides of the top piece, then just nail this through the base of the plant (i.e a home made Xmas tree stand.....

hahah thats the thread i read many moons ago. i think in emergencies fair enough but as most of us are in coco these days and flushing is nearly not necessary.

Very true, I still flush though in the last week, but I just don't use half the water supply of Europe to do it anymore, lol. Just enough to get a decent run off that is mainly clear.
Talking of Run Off, need to get to the shop.

The beauty of Headband - mold resistant. While all around are getting a bad dose of head and shoulders, the Headbands say, "come on, give us all you can MoFo PM" Very tollerant to mildew thems are.

Hello Mr West,
I think the tent set up looks good.

Was wondering about Don and Gin's comment about No flushing?
I too am using coco, perlite and hydron,,,,, we don't have to flush
Now thats great news. Does anyone know the reason we don't have too.
and what percent of coco do you use in your mix?
Just wondering
