You just admitted in another post to being a noob. And yet, here you are claiming to know better than everybody else - "don't believe these guys".
Because this poor horse has beaten to death. I flushed for years before studying it more in depth. I run low ppm nutes and found that flushing doesn't change a thing in the final product. I run multiple flowering rooms, so I'm able to do side by side comparisons. Did the same thing with silica a while back, and aside from being a handy substitute for PH up, it's basically useless.
Better than reality tv
You should back off the nitrogen in your nutes but don't stop feeding. What type of nutrients are you using? You got an unusual fox tail thing going there do you have heat issues?
I call them marketing companies because they can put anything in a bottle, make unbelievable claims, and sell product to people believing the nonsense.
Ancient earth and big bud and there's no nitogen so idk and I'm also using led so really no heat .. I think this plant is just messed up
Do you have a big light leak then? Usually you don't get those weird 1 bladed leafs unless something is wrong (like reveg or some type of heat issues) . Check your timer too, make sure it's running 12/12 and no little extra somewhere mid dark cycle.
Lol buddy, not saying I know better, just said not to listen to the people saying it's bs cuz I believe it has benefits, mostly in the case of chemical nutrients, growweedeasy.com is a very nice general reference site, you can find flushing on there and as far as being a noob, hell yeah I'm gonna tell anyone right off the bat because bottom line unless you study the subject like it's your career, it's all opinions so they should be taken with a grain of salt, but any who my personal line of logic is that in the very final moments, the point where it's ready and you stop nutes just long enough to have the plant use up the remainder and not have a plant full of chemicals that haven't had enough time to fully break down, now everyone thinks differently but the way I see it there's a lag between nute uptake at the roots and actual effects of them (growth etc). So in the last 2 weeks nutes are still being used but it's leeching the plant of them, and this part idk for certain but I feel like one might be smoking chemicals somewhat, but that might not be true because the roots manage nute uptake so there would not be actual man made Chemicals within the plant if that stacks, but when a plant has reached the end and it's harvest window, it's probably about as big as it's gonna get, so the remaining nutrients within are enough to last it the last week or so. Also nutrients change the flavor of the smoke is claimed on that site. Hope that got the gist
Oh yeah, this seems to be one of the worst subjects on this site and let me tell you, the anti-flush people act like you killed one of their children if you mention flush. It is insane how crazy they get over someone else growing their plants the way they want to grow them. If you want to flush, by all means flush, most of the reasons they give to not flush don't make sense anyway. It might not help your plant, but in no way does it hurt your plant either. In most cases you will be cutting it down within about a week of flushing anyway.
^ This is mostly incorrect information that should be ignored.
I think the plants should of vegged longer lol. Ittle babies lol. You got some time like others have stated. At least a month and a couple weeks maybe. Never heard of flushing really unless you’re trying to purge your medium but cutting off nuets and use water only for a couple few weeks seems to be effective for most. They also have cleaning solutions you can add to your water every feeding as well. Florakleen or keepItkleen etc are a couple. Never used them though so can’t comment much more on them.
There are people with college degrees in the agriculture field, botany, horticulture, etc... that say flushing does nothing. It's those without any formal education or have never grown any plant other than cannabis that push the flushing nonsense. Them and nutrient/marketing companies trying to sell as many bottles of whatever they market for "Flushing".
Theres not a difference between organic & synthetic as far as the plant is concerned. Plants don't use up anything, what you put in it stays there. Plants can be deficient and shuffle "mobile nutrients" from old growth to new growth it doesn't disappear.
Your study cntradicts you in a small way -
