The "I don't starve my plants before harvest" thread

[k0ijn]

fuuuuuck.
never ending ect ect

It's better to have one thread which is just continual, than 5 new threads each week about the same subject with the same useless newbies who think they know everything, making ridiculous claims and not backing it up with anything remotely factual.
In this thread at least, there are real discussions, with scientific references and facts.

You most definitely can get a salt/mineral buildup in plant tissue

Well i was talking to a cop and he was very adamant about "flushing" all the weed he found.

i work next door to a cannabis club. i go in ere every single day and look at the 100 orms different strains. un flushed weed taste like holy hell and each time its some guy like you thinking their weed is all bad ass. but reality is your bud taste and smells like garbage chemicals. their ais a tremendous difference in taste. i cant believe your did three tests? i say bullshit or your basis of comparrison is wrong or weak. unflushed weed is so obviously gross tasting and smelling. but thats just me im around top shelf weed every day and wanna be top shelf weed that sits for months cuz the grower writes nonsense post about not flushing and backyard science tests

Tell him you're a part of the remediation effort as well! I have burned every bit of weed I've found ... and my quest to dispose of more is relentless. cn

Hahaha Agreed sir and thanks big
Someone needs to sack up and get multiple samples grown from clone some flushed some unflushed. Properly cure them then Use some lab grade equipment to find the exact composition.

Or big double blind studies, because as hard as we try bias does creep into our findings sometimes

 

[Impman]

Flushing does little to nothing, drying, cure, storage and time are the factors that most determine taste and smell.

Wrong! So ignorant and wrong! there is a very distinct taste in unflushed plants. i am litterally next door t a dispencary right now. growers like you bring in bud and think its top shelf but it sits for months cuz it smells and taste like nutrients. you growers than dont flush are the equivelant to people who csnt sing a note but think they are the next pop star.

 

[Impman]

Great post. Not.

First, I don't flush, so you're missing my point entirely because it absolutely wasn't to advocate flushing.

Second, TASTE will always be a matter of TASTE. You're seriously going to dispute that?

Third, you want to talk proof? No matter how much botany you want to spew into this particular topic there is essentially zero proof of any of that either in terms of final product. Where are the studies that prove that yield and potency are affected by flushing? Where is any proof at all that plants are starved to the point of affecting final product as you insist? You have theories, that's all you have.

Do you really think you're winning this debate?

I guess you are so frustrated that you'll say anything, argue with anybody at this point? Maybe you should just let it go...

You can not be serious or your experience with marijuanna is extemly limited to few strains and or growers. unflushed weed is not a matter of taste its freakin nasty as hell. unless you like the taste of poo flush our godamn marijuanna people. difference between right and wrong black and white good vs evil ,= flush vs unflushed. unflushed tsste distinctivly like a s sour wet dog..err how ide imagine one wuld taste.

Your so quick to attack with little to no knowledge of growing or the fundamntals of how plants work. Have you grown out some plants and flushed and not flushed? no you haven't... Have you ever grown? Just because you hear stuff in a dispencery doesn't mean it's true, not everyone knows what there talking about. Unlike you I can't just have people tell me things and not find out on my own so I did and came up with these results. and how do you know the buds you did smoke were actually flushed or not? you don't!!! because you didn't grow any. Atleast many of us have taken the time to control as many variables as possible and do multiple blind experiments, that's more than you can say you've done.

I dont flush





I dont use chemicals either




100% organic




I dont flush

Hey Limp man,

I couldn't help but notice some of your other posts in other threads. At first I was going to defend myself and have an actual conversation with you before I realized who you were. Your talkin hella shit to alot of people with alot of knowledge of growing, yet you come in thinking you know it all because you what read 1 book and live next door to a dispencery? Your running around RIU telling people not to listen to good advice and actual facts yet can't provide any facts of your own besides you live next to a dispencery. My favorite is when you were telling Simon D he didn't know how to cure and he was all wrong lol. Then you respond with "I cure before dry" how the hell do you do that?! anyways I think if your gonna run your mouth you should maybe start a thread explaining your way of growing sense you have so much knowledge on the subject.

 

[dannyboy602]

Limp man...lolz...that's a little below the belt.

 

[SirLancelot]

lol yea I tried not too... but couldn't help it. Your right, I apologize Impman for the personal attack I intended this to be informational thread not full of petty BS.

But seriously, just don't talk anymore unless you have some sort of positive input.

 

[VanishingToaster]

i bet i can find literally a tonne of different literature telling you that flushing is essential. means fuck all to me, i've done the experiments, i've flushed and not and the plants that weren't flushed not only looked better but had fuller rounder buds, ones that really looked plump.

no other plants are flushed, you could argue that most plants aren't ignited and inhaled but tobacco is, and the revolutionary moment in the tobacco industry regarding quality??? that was when they cured it properly and gave a nice smooth smoke with a nice white ash that wasn't rough or burned poorly. you are trying to say that happens because of flushing???? you can be dam sure that the tobacco industry is growing their stuff as quick as possible and are pumping as much nutes in as they can safely handle. still no flushing goin on

a post of mine from another flush debate, apologies for aggressive nature

 

[SlimJim503]

I stopped flushing and tripled my yield now im a believer in back off the nutrients that last week or two of flower flushing is reserved for fuck up like over nuteing and by backing off i mean real slowly and i feed up until chop and i like to end up feeding them what i started with so like 1/4 recommended dosage. Not harsh tasty white ash when burned and a lot more frosty and plump. I also started taking fan leafs in flower that gave me more dense nugs due to tighter nodes but i do this for space and cuz i only run a 150w but i run 12 or so under it and average 1/2-2oz per 12/12 from seed and mine are true 12/12 from the time they pop soil so no veg time.

Lol, no.
Only the cannabis "industry" promotes such behavior.

Incredible, just incredible!

Finally some real evidence that flushing is bad. Bravo, +rep.
