sugar flush

I feed strong pk then cut all food except carb`s (dextrose or glycerine normally) feed just sugar for 1 to 3 weeks and then I give just water anything from a week to not at all

or you know go spend money on "carbo load" or "sweet" or "bud candy"

Most of them are just carbs maybe with some b-vits if your lucky lol

naw, roots organic soil is rich in nutes and these sativa girls are sensitive in flower...apparently. I havent fed them once in 6 weeks.

Wow! That didn't work for me. I gotta trickle in at least 400 ppm bloom/N/cal-mag or my plants go south in a week. I just tried it again with Roots and needed to supplement the plants within a week. Strange, maybe it's my dry climate? I water every other day and sometimes everyday (the small 3 gal air pots) at 400-500 ppm.

For a few years I've used 11L pots the last run I did I up'd to 18L.

No real difference in yield TBH so I'm moving back down to 11L's again next run.

Yeah coco has an ideal pH of 5.8. But to be real about it, it can handle anywhere from 5.2-7.0 of your NUTE solutions pH without getting completely whacked out as long as you've still got some buffer of Calcium Nitrate in the coco. If not then you do what I do and add a deficiency strength Ca solution through them at about 1.0EC. This helps to rebuffer the coco somewhat.

I have a perpetual grow and am in my flowering room every day playing with my girls. My brother grows also and recently turned me on to a new idea, he floods a plant with a gallon of water (using 3-gallon pots) the evening before the plant gets harvested. I harvest 2 plants a week and tried this right away. The 2 Blueberry Gum re-grows scheduled for next day harvest were flooded with a gallon of water each. Next day the 10-12 main colas were so large and fat the tops had started to droop over. By squeezing a main bud I could tell the nugs were just saturated with the extra water. Works for me!

Good luck, BigSteve.

I don't follow the logic. You then have to wait longer to dry the extra water out of these "saturated" buds, and will end up with the same product as if you hadn't done this. How is extra water in your bud a good thing on harvest day?

If i take a dripping sponge, and a saturated sponge, once i remove the water from them, they're still the same sponge.

Lol. So much uncessary stuff here bro. Strong pk? Sugar flush? Why?
Sugar feeds microbes btw.

Yeah I like to cut the N or lower it a lot about 3 to 6 weeks before finish, some of that N kicks around in the coco and the microbes I add to my plants can feed some N anyway

Then I mostly just carbs, is cheaper then nutes, tastes better and ripens the buds faster

Also have you ever vaporized glycerine ? its fucking tasty, I used to use molasses or honey but glucose and glycine are far cheaper and easier to mix with water

Plus the sugar causes the microbes to breed more so when I recycle my coco I add some free bennies

But I`m sure what ever you do must work for you
