Flushing? Thoughts

Back when I was in high school I bought a bag from a hillbilly who kept calling it "fluffy bud weed." I've used the term every time I've seen fluffy bud weed since.

Different story.
In most cases, people using salts or synth, esp newbs, are either feeding too much or too little. I see a LOT of too much. I’d def suggest flushing to them. For many reasons. So to say you “never” need to flush, is wrong.
It’s a tek that in some cases and situations/ growing styles that will help
This is what all the proponents of flushing pull out of their ass when they run out of argument. Funny, that.
99% of people asking about "flushing" are under the impression it removes nutrients from the bud before harvest and people like you feed that belief. It's BS.

No, it removes viable minerals and nutrients from the medium and forces the plant to pull from its reserves from being over fed.

lol okay, Go ahead and not flush your salt/synth grown buds, tell me how it goes hahaha
Ok so tell me what’s different about organic compounds that have been converted by the micro herd into available nutrient ions for uptake by the roots. Versus synthetic ions already available to the plant for uptake by the roots?

Ions are ions the plant doesn’t know any different.
The only difference is the process in which the ions become available.

That depends on your idea of flushing, I'm open to disguss it, I refuse to accept there's no salts left behind, there cant not be its logic, salts cannot evaporate, that's not say it'll taste bad or anything but without discussion we'll never know without actually trying it.


Whose actually fed a plant until the end then given it water only and compared it to one that's just cut, this two weeks thing is fucking joke for various reasons, how could I know it's going to be ready in two weeks, from looking like it's getting there to arriving can take 3/4 weeks and that's getting fed.

Some will say commercial don't flush, well it wouldn't be very economical if we're talking ripe before flushing.

in organics the plant retains its auto feeding ability. Different than force feeing readily available. Uptake by roots in organics operates differently than chelated read available synth. One has a mutual relationship with the microbiology/roots/soil composition, the other does not. Pretty logical. Can’t over feed in organics.
