I NEVER flush. With organics feed till the end.
Why starve a plant when they need it most.
Flushing in soil is a myth from old hydro users.

Seriously?! Thats made my night man. I was gona flush the everlivin bejaysus out of em as i thought they must have been locked but I'll persevere with the neuts. Hard to know what to do sometimes, especially now they're behaving differently. I'll give full strength on next feed and report back. Should i still be including cal mag at this point in flowering? This strap mollasses worthwhile?
Might try and pick up a cheapo 50 quid de humidifier and bung her in. Christ the eleccy bills lol...
I know it could all easily go tits up yet but that plant in the pic, might that give two oz dry perhaps? I have a real stumpy fat bushy one with a similar amount of nug but thicker. Real worried it might rot as they're thick. Crazy how different each pheno can be even of same strain. All smell differently too.
The critical 2.0 has resurrected from near death and is flowering like mad, super vigorous and very sativa'y with long jagged skinny leaves, stem rub smells cheesy! Once i gave her full feed (with bio tabs left in) she rebounded in a wk. Amazing considering how far she was gone.
Last question; recommend me a basic but good non organic feed for growing in plagron lightmix. For the next grow (6 dutch seed white widow cbd autos I've sprouted in the veg tent) I'll try synthetic neuts and see if the quicker reaction to feeding makes for an easier time of it.
Thanks for the advice

I use both depending on the situ. Rates? Never the same. None or little in veg and increase as required
5Ft plants are getting over the recommended dose.

would you usually go over 1000ppm on a 4 footer?

@strainforpain I use blackstrap mollases and like @budsahoi said it doesnt feed the plants (not directly anyway). It feeds the 'micro herd' in your soil, so they can do their job better. Long term and small amounts is the way to go.

(Random info: biobizz‘s BioGro is basically mollases but instead of being pressed from sugar cane they use sugar beets because it has a higher N-P-K.)

Next round off to a good start Barneys tangerine dream, bout 2 weeks. Getting a light feed of nettle tea and aloe vera juice. Gonna pot her up soon, grow her out and take some clones using the aloe vera tek (fingers crossed!). 
So im currently in a homemade box, gotta swith out to a sealed tent. Even with my extractor and carbon filter im getting leaks. I also wanna get some rotation going BUT I gotta keep it small
so if I wanna 2-3 plant rotation of seedlings and veg-lings in one tent and flower in another would 2 80x80x160 tents be doable? Ill be using lst and prob scrog for flowering.
Also, scrubbing your air rather than extraction? Anyone do this?

You mean recycling the air? You need fresh air.
In one 80X80 tent i could do about 500Gr every 12/15 weeks, with two tents every 8 weeks.
Tangerine dream is a nice smoke but not a great producing or consistent plant.
Needs a long time flowering. Typical Barneys farm.
As you can guess i hate Barnwys Farm seeds.

Yea so I dont extract the air, could I hook up an intake Fan to keep it fresh?
Dya mean 500g wet?
Yea ive just read up smoke reports and it sounds tastey AF lol I figured since it was indica dominant itd have a shorter flowering time :/
Ive 3 of those seeds and 4 blueberry OG from barneys to play with.
What seed bank would you recommend?

Sounds like your well into it at this stage lol
I ordered my first 80x80 and figure I have 2-3 months before I need the second, and a bigger light
Quick pic of my neighbors outdoor grow, still teeny wee but getting frosty
