LMFAO, this is what triggered guys do, they go looking for ammo to use on you, then talk shit when they don't find any.

Thanks for the links, the video on drying/curing was very interesting.
Pictures are credibility on a platform like this. If you wanna go around being an asshole for no reason that's on you I guess. I happen to think some of his pictures looked really nice. But even if they didn't Im not the type to just be a dick and voice my unsolicited bad opinion on someone else's hard work. I'd just keep my mouth shut.
I went looking for your pictures hoping to find some nice bud to look at since you were saying yours were better. I didn't find any so I came the conclusion that you probably don't have a clue what your talking about and just like pissing people off. Only other conclusion would be that your balls didn't drop and your still think it's 1999 and it's not safe to post pictures.

bullshit, you just wanted some bullets for your gun and couldn't find any. I said I wouldn't use that pic to brag. Then i said I couldn't compete with his fried ass plants. Learn to read and comprehend what you read. It's funny, everyone has posted scientific proof of their claims,yet you 2 are the fry em and flush guys and seem very angry? too much P in your bud? could be

Check out the RX green technologies flushing trial.
if all you do is use plain water to feed in the same manner you do normally just without nutrients then you aren’t actually flushing anyway. You’re leaching. And this slowly reduces the nutrients available to the plant.
these are some of My harvested buds from this weekend.
you can see that even the sugar leaves are still
Luscious and green.
this is how I like my plants to finish I’ve still got more in the room to harvest during the next few days.

I used a “Bloom booster” from around week 4 of 12/12. Dutch pro explode beginning at 0.5ml per litre.
i increase that bloom booster to 1ml per litre by week 6 and hold there for another week then taper off.
the whole time I’m using the explode booster I’m increasing my Ca and Mg levels to help with the uptake of the additional PK.
then I back off in the last few weeks and use base A/B along with some Magnesium Sulphate.
not once have these plants seen plain water (growing in coco)

I’d like to learn more on this if I am not flushing quote unquote properly. I feed distilled water zero ppm at proper PH for the final ten days typically. Call me crazy but the ones I cut before “flush” (leaching as I’m learning) just don’t burn as clean and smooth as the ones that were “leached”
Thank you

The best thing you can do is have a test case plant. Only 1 needed especially if you’re running clones.
feed it just enough to keep it green and healthy.
If you see the beginnings of a deficiency symptom sort it out quickly and continue feeding.
Use this as your test case and just keep feeding it. Feeding requirements of the plants taper off anyway around week 8-9 of 12/12 so just reduce the amount of feed towards the end or instead of water feed water feed instead go feed water water feed water water etc to reduce according to its ripeness.

Also that distilled water at 0ppm regardless if you pH it it won’t remain With a stable pH As there is zero mineral quantity to help it stabilise.
How bad is your tap water if you feel the need to use distilled?
Even when RO water is used most people need to add 0.4EC of a Calmag product otherwise their ph won’t stabilise.

My plants above have received a maximum EC of 1.4 during its life cycle.
Normally I’m sitting around 1.2EC.
By week 8 of 12/12 I’m beginning to reduce my EC down to 1.0. Then week 9 I’m at 0.8EC. then this is where it stays until I harvest.
depending upon the length of flowering required by the plants this can result in a more or less faded look depending upon harvest time but I never have completely paled out plants.

yeah you dont need to pH purewater, its also quite sensitive as it lacks any hardness, and will fluctuate so just save yourself the hassle

Teddy is fighting over pot plants....now thats funny

I remember starting hydro grows when you first root they often are a bitch to get to “pop off” and the reason being I was taught was the low PPM I’d say simple tap water for your starting hydro roots, hard to get a nice “medium” maybe? Because the water fluctuates so much. I did not realize this did the same thing in soil but very familiar with low PPM water hydro issues (because I sucked bad at my two hydro attempts....won’t lie) much different game than soil but honestly until this thread I had no idea I wasn’t “flushing” correctly and I thank you all for helping me with that. Love being a student man and getting better.

Little update to the do you use bloom boosters or not.
I use botanicare cns17 and add “jacks classic blossom booster” and “flower fuel” at different spots. The jacks is a staple for me I love the vitamin zing it gives my buds. I also just fed a small dose of fox farms cha Ching to increase resin production. I’m happy with the results 3 weeks into flower.
Edit I also use fox farms big bloom at certain spots. Every other feed lately it seems. Plants are roughly 4-5ft tall and about 2-4ft around in diameter.

who's fighting? I probably posted the best info in this thread, you angry guys just missed it cause your bud sucks. This has been gone over for the last ten years or more. nothing new here
