Hello all so whats this I am hearing about the ice water flush and 48hr complete dark period in the last few days of flowering. Has anyone tried this what's the official process and what's the pros and cons
What do you meanJust stop feeding when plant shows signs of self cannibalization. Although you are in for a longer wait. But truly finished plants in the end. Flushing is pointless in my travels. And all science shows the plants only store enough energy for growth over a period of 8-10 hours. Seriuosly hampered without light.
But shock your girls and starve them. Your learning curve.
Best wishes and peace. View attachment 4830499View attachment 4830500
What do you meanWhat you are hearing is bro science. Pros are unsubstantiated. Only word of mouth and hear say. Cons are many.
When your plant is getting close to true maturity it will begin to look like nute burn. The plant is actually dying and beginning to feed of the nutes in the leaves. As it's roots are only uptaking hydration at this point. Stop feeding to save supplies. Plant is no longer feeding. And a better flush over 2-3 weeks naturally than any bro science out there. 90% of grower, my estimate(LOL), harvest premature. Ride one out once. Tell me your results. Love factual info.What do you mean
Mites must go below freezing. Only slows them down and inhibits plants vigor to resist in my grows. Made purple buds with cold in the late 80's. LMAO. The good ole days.Only thing ice water flushing is good for is killing mites organically otherwise i see no benefit
It is a crazy world. Why starve a growing plant.?Now we are adding ice to flushing think fruit trees dose anyone flush them before harvesting if your ladies are ready for harvesting pick your fruit and leave the torture out of the equation
So what do you suggestIt is a crazy world. Why starve a growing plant.?
Only my 2 cents. Worthless. But run your cycle as normal until you have the milk or gold I go for. Cut and adjust final flavor with dry and cure. If you let it go till it is actually done it will be ten steps ahead in your curing process.So what do you suggest
Flush myself to get down. LMAO.You can always flush with Everclear or Vodka ....... Booze Buds
Beauty what's your drying and curing process I've had trouble being in az with hay tastingOnly my 2 cents. Worthless. But run your cycle as normal until you have the milk or gold I go for.

Here is one of my secret girls at full finish after dry. View attachment 4830510
Remove limbs, shade leaves and hang. Slow and low. 12-14 days. You need ac in your climate. About 60-65F. Shoot for crisp snap on branches. Jar and burp as normal. Every two days for first 2 weeks. Then I get humidity in jar and use actual ambient to bring my buds to 45-50% max humidity in same temps as drying. By opening jars in humidity for a day on the side I need to go to. It is a balancing act. But as long as you don't get to humid you have months to get it right.Beauty what's your drying and curing process I've had trouble being in az with hay tasting
