Flushing before flip

When I flush before I flip from veg to flowering, after the flush do I immediately give it nutes water it or just keep going as scheduled

Why are you flushing? Now is when they need lots of NPK to start building flower.

I haven’t seen anyone doing this fyi.

What nute line are you using? Some of the salty ones have a feed, feed, flush cycle and they time a flush right at the transition to flowering nutrients. When I use them, I flush and then fed the next time the plant is ready…even when transitioning to flower.

If using fox farms liquid trio, i would certainly follow the flush schedule. Yes, feed again immediately after the flush. Let dry out, resume normal.

Foxfarm says to flush a total of 4 times before harvest. One after veg. I use foxfarm, sensi calmag, molasses, hydroguard. I got the sledgehammer flush and kelp me kelp you and wholly mackerel

Got it

Your numbers show soil depleted without having to flush.

I might suggest looking into some other nutrient lines, like Jack’s, which don’t require flushing. Cheaper too.

Does it show numbers on your end? I see no runoff posted.

Does sledgehammer flush even do anything? Or is it the same as a water flush? I’ve heard good and bad

I agree that you should move away from fox farm. To expensive, and to much hassle. I switched to organic quite a ways back, and it is the way to go. And better smelling and tasting product.

Somehow I mixed this up with another showing PH and TDS. Stoner moment.

When you say organic to you mean medium living soil or another nutrient line? Examples if you will

When seedling is as wide as the cup, transplant into pot of happy frog mixed with perlite, worm castings, a little blood and bone meal, and fox farm fruit and flower 4-9-3 per the instructions on the package. Then top dress with the fruit and flower after 6 weeks, then once a month after that. I use recharge occasionally to keep the microbes healthy. If you feel inclined, you can use a little liquid organic nutrients such as bio thrive bloom in you water during flowering, but don’t know if it’s really necessary.



Was gonna use indicanja as medium and
Use greengro as top spread and maybe some coco for aeratio

Looks like that should do it. I wouldn’t personally use coco, but would add some perlite if I thought it needed it.
