If you under fertilize and there seems to be no issues going on with your plants is there any reason to flush? I have heard many things on both sides of the fence but I think flushing is somewhat violent to your roots I could be completely wrong. Help a stoner out guys! :D

Flushing is not a scientifically proven benefit to your plant. Many will argue that it improves taste, smell, smokability, et etc but there is no scientific proof, just personal preferences.

You wanna flush? Then flush.

You don't wanna flush? Then don't flush.

When I start the chop I start by stripping all the fans that are easy to take. I do the chop then I put the cut end of the shoot into RO water for twenty-four hours ensuring that the RO water does not got dry. This is the only flush that I know of that will improve the smell and taste. From the RO water to the trim to be hung to dry. It's also easier to do the trim when they are perky. Be sure that your plant is ready to harvest before you start the chop.

Sorry guys I didn't write the question right, the fox farms nutrient calendar has flush dates 3 times per cycle. I don't really mean at harvest because I usually just RO water them to the finish.

The Fox Farm Nutrient Calendar was developed, somewhat, to convince you to buy more nutrients. You don't need all that "stuff" to grow a weed.

Thanks green, I use the whole line for this first run but I don't really use the doses they say. I use like half strength and then ill up it a little week 6-7 then down again.

wrong, it is called botany, and there is a fuckton of scientific proof, it is just idiots make up their own and people are too lazy to research beyond forums. if you can grow tomatoes, you can grow weed. they are quite similar.

It's incredibly easy to find scientific proof in the cannabis world. People are just too fucking stupid to use google.

WTF does "google" have to do with growing weed. When we made all the cutting edge discoverys here in Canada there wasn't any such thing as google. Unless you can prove me wrong in the grow-op stay the f*ck offa me you sick f... All my methods have been thoroughly tested.

Because we real growers google reports and studies done by qualified botanists, not go by urban myths found on forums. All your methods have been thoroughly tested huh? So go get a phd and write a paper on it. Prove us all wrong. You could revolutionize the world of botany. You are gonna be rich! Hey, can i borrow $10,000?

He's already revolutionized the world of botany. He invented EBB and flow but can't provide one ounce of proof to that claim he WILL make, can't even post one pic of his awesome table.

I fell sorry for you and your buddy. My RO water roots off flush has already been proven on you tube a few month ago. It was done by extremely sceptical people like yourself. Sad, I've been kushing my weed for 30 some years this way. And ya, I did come up with F&D and the first large op was done in 1993. RO water treatment has always put the edge on sales for us.
