Don't know if this has been covered on here yet... ? about flushing...

[piglet8631]

Hi there...So glad I found this site! I'm (of course) a newbie. I'm using an EMILY'S GARDEN system with some modifications, (I added more air & bubbles)and I have 3 different plants flowering. They're all 3 bagseed, I think they're all doing great, but they're all different sizes. One is very bushy, and I think it's ready to start fllushing but the other 2 don't look ready at all. My question is how do I start flushing one plant in emilys garden? It's a single reservoir for all the plants, should I maybe make a bucket bubbleponic for the one thats ready now? I hope this even makes sense...
You all seem to have some pretty smart info on here, so help a girl out who admits to not really knowing what the hell I'm doing, but I'm giving it a hellova try!! I'm currently on day 54 of flowering using 6 2700 cfls.
Thanks!

An emily's garden system is pretty much like a bubble ponic system. the roots sit in the water at all times. The bad part about growing bag seeds and any type system where all the plants share the same nuts is if one is a faster finisher you cant really flush just the one with out flushing them all. If at all possible like FabFun asked do you have any photos? atleast with photos we can see how far along the plants are and maybe help you out with further question. IF the one plant in question is in fact ready to be flushed and the other two are not. i feel a transplant would be needed.

this is what an Emilys garden is..... http://cgi.ebay.com/Hydrofarm-Emilys-Garden-Hydropnic-Grow-System-NEW-/170565067822?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27b678642e#ht_1460wt_1140

Hi, thanks for the responses! I'm gonna take some pics here in a little while, the lights should be on in an hour. I have checked the trichomes, the one I think is ready has about 25% amber trichs the rest are pretty clear. The other two plants are still pretty milky.

then i would wait a 1 week to flush all then after u havested the one see if others need some more time so others get more flush time u r kind of limited on choices

The first one is the one I think is close to ready...the last one looks like a grow forever, it just keeps getting taller & taller. It's day 54.

i would let them go awhile longer piglet
looks great so far but i think u got long flower strain

You have done a great job I would wait and watch closely It doesnt look quite ready but hard to realy see with out being there. Wish I could offer more.

they have a few weeks left.

Judging by the trichomes is far from percise. Trichomes can degrade really quick to amber when they get too much radiation from the lights.

With this system you are best off chopping together.
You could change the rez to water and 2 tablespoons of molasses per gallon for 3-4 days, chop the ones you need and return to your previous regime when they are chopped.
It can stunt the one that stays a bit but its better than chopping it prematurely.

I just got an Emily's Garden a few weeks ago. It is set up , and waiting for the seeds to be ready to go in there...
What kind of results did you get? Would you use the Emily's again?
