Agreed, I don't ever flush eitherIf it makes you feel better, I don't flush mine at all before harvest. They should be fine.

Well Thanks for the kind words but this is hydro. You grow in dirt Doe and there is no need to flush. Not sure about you riddle but I have not flushed a hydro grow enough before and It sucked. Harsh smoke, and you taste it.Agreed, I don't ever flush either
I'm soil also, and trust your word on hydro as your grows always look great as do that last batch of picsWell Thanks for the kind words but this is hydro.

Hey man! Lookin great! I see you decided to go with the perlite/vermiculite mix. I hope this works out well for you... But really.. hempy with auto-feed is sooooooo Easy. LOL.. If I get you working less you may switch over...LOL Every time I start thinking about nft or dwc or aero I start thinking about all the work I used to do and then think about now where I sometimes dont look in on them for a week.... then I stop thinking about it...lol
I will give them a day to get used to it then I will set a screen on them and lower the light. Only got a foot or so, this will be interesting.
i dont know but i flush even in soil. it cant hurt and in the last weeks of flower, i wont to get all nutes out of soil. on the haw.... i flushed yesterday ill let her dry up tyhem one mor time. run off was 450 want it down from there so one more flushing should do it. her nutes were up to 600=750 ppm. i think soil or not flushing be fore harvest is a good think , cant hurt right
Thanks man, yea, I havent seen anything exactly like this but similar and by adding the vermiculite to the perlite I think it will retain just enough water to keep it moist. I tested a single dripper per container but dont think it spread enough so I used two.looks pretty sweet. I wish I could get green crack around here. but that strain is nowhere. Never seen hempy done like that. Looks like it will work our real well. +2 points for innovation.
Nope, cant hurt thats for sure.i think soil or not flushing be fore harvest is a good think , cant hurt right
If this works out, your my hero. lolHey man! Lookin great! I see you decided to go with the perlite/vermiculite mix. I hope this works out well for you...

Again...I ramble.... but excellent work!
Agreed. I use clearex for the first 24 hours now when I flush and it seems to do the same thing in a day as it used to take me a week to do with just straight r/o. I still run straight water for a week, ppms dont change but I think that gives them time to use up whats left.I gotta say that this last time is the first time I used a flushing agent. I used final phase from AN. I have already nipped at some and the taste is incredible...
Unfortunately I just experienced this first hand in my flouro flower champber. I was having problems and they were getting stressed. I flushed for 24 with final phase and then swapped to a nutrient load. BAD IDEA. They were burnt to shit today so I cut it all out and have it in with the trim bag drying for butter. Getting ready to dismantle that cabinet right now as a matter of fact... Its days are done.TEarl mentioned some growers use it during the growing cycle a mini flush sort of speak. Like between veg and flower of when ya get a nute lockup. You run it for like 12 hours then change out. You have to start real low nute ppms or you will burn it because after the treatment the plant is just aching for nutes.
Its ok. While learning new things sometimes shit happens. I am going to take the cabinet apart this weekend but I will also finish my cloning and flowering bins so all is right in the world...LOL. I did just take a bunch of God bud clones.Woops, looks like I am a day late and a dollar short.
Yea, it works good but 12 hrs not 24 hrs and start back at 1/4 strength.
