I also prefer greenies but simply for taste! When my stash gets low and I roll up some roaches I get more stoned then ever.. I chalk it up as bunch of decarbed roaches? Not sure what but it’s def stronger and it’s the same bud I’ve been smoking all week..

I always flushed roaches when I was young. Then the toilet got stopped up and my dad went to use a snake. I remember watching in horrified fascination to see if the evidence of my debauchery would show up (it didn't). However he did find a tampon or two, oops.
As a teenager we used to make what we called generation joints. Keep smoking joints until you have enough roach weed to roll a full joint. That is generation 1. Repeat until you have enough gen 1 roaches (the roaches of the roach joints) to roll a joint. Thats gen 2. Repeat. Usually by gen 3 it was too resinous to function as a joint. Thats where the 4ft graphix bong came in...

Awww to be young again...

I had to stand and watch the apartment manager snake a pork chop bone out.
Then I acted clueless.
Looking back I chuckle because we all knew it was me but I wouldn't break

Here is a question for the science heads! Okay you say a plant don’t dump nutes back into the soil? Not sure about that, if you ever flushed a plant to 80 ppm then give it plain 80 ppm water then check run off 2 days later and your back up too 700? Is the plant not dumping stored nutes back into the soil? If not then why the ppms in the soil goes back up? Does a plant take up nutes and store it? When it’s dark period does the plants dump back what is unused? Is the 3 days of darkness helping them dump unwanted shit back into the soil? I don’t know the science I just know what I’ve tested???
If plants could dump nutes back into soil would there be nute burn? Cannabis can absorb toxic levels of immobile heavy metals without showing toxicity.

The 3 days dark is more forum bullshit. Plants make food all day and use it at night. Plants will use almost all the food by the time the sun comes up. i think the idea stems from something called the circadian clock. I don't understand it enough to explain how environmental changes can alter it.

As far as storage of food, its an annual plant that will put everything into growing and reproducing.

For the ones rolling joints, has the paper used been flushed before harvest? How about blunts anybody taste chemicals?

Soil and coco doesn't need flushing at the end to the extent that pure hydro does.
I can't stand smoking unflushed hydro weed. It makes my saliva salty.

I use unbleached papers, but prefer dry flower vape.

Soil contains clay, and clay has significant ion-exchange capacity.

So the extra PPM were probably ions being released from the clay in a slowish process. A re-flush should show a lower ion rebound.

Plants only return nutrients to the soil once they are dead. Living plants are greedy possessive things. It's how they deal with the sheer indignity of immobility.
