Flushing has been a debate for a long time. If you google “Flushing Cannabis” the very first Websites says “Flushing is free and easy technique that may improve the quality and smoothness of your cannabis buds before harvest.” …but is that true? Do I flush? Is flushing the right choice for my ga…

swik will be trying this in coco atm. flushing and not flushing with clones same strain. feeding low ppm during harvest window,up until 3 days before harvest (300-450 ) and 7-10 days of ph’d water only 5.8-6.0 ph smoke results after 7-10 days drying, week 1 jarred, wk2,wk 3. :slight_smile: gre…

Just harvested my first grow a few weeks ago (from RDWC) . Due to time constraints I did not flush. I fed my normal 50% AN nutes right up to chopping time.

It would be good to see on for coco as I am sure that is for soil. After a few days of just water in coco. You can be down to almost nothing ppm wise. So basically starving your plants at the end. Just what my brain is telling me. Doesn’t make it so. I would think soil would hang on to things longer…

Yes, one would think that soil will hold nutes longer than coco but in practice there seemed to be little difference. I’ve done the 2 week water only before harvest in coco on a couple grows now (Zkittlez and Banana Kush) and really saw no difference than when I did it in soil. My old online friend…
