I need to flush a plant to clear out some salt buildup that has resulted in a slight nitrogen toxicity in one of my plants.
I’ve read that you should flush with a diluted nutrient solution to help bind and remove salts. Does that sound right?
I’m aware there are flushing solutions you can buy, like GH Florakleen for example.
Off topic slightly, but another thing I started to do when I’m watering with just water (I do “water water feed”) is water in half of it, let it soak through for about 5 minutes and then run the other half through. My thinking is that initial soak gives the water time to dissolve things like salts and then the last half of the water washes it out. Am I right
