My last cycle I wanted to run an experiment. I knew no matter what if I told anyone that I hadn't flushed they would all judge my buds with discrimination. So I didn't tell anyone. not a single person had anything bad to say. everyone loved what I grew. So now I'm faced with a decision, do still need to flush? It didn't seem to make a difference. so whats the point? there doesn't seem like any. the plant kinda starts to ripen when its done anyways. I don't think there is exactly a "need" to force it into its ripening phase.
Flushing soil grows is a fool's errand.

Its gonna be my first harvest next week and ive flushed the plants with phd water twice in coco, thats it for me! Fucking pointless really i suppose but hey you live and you learn! From what ive read on various forums and info its got to be all bullshit as you say the nutes are stored in the leaves anyway so flushing should just make the buds less potent if anything? Anyway this is her, G13 Haze, smells amazing and i cant wait to get my smoke on!

Right on. I don't really flush, but I don't feed nutes the last weeks or so in coco. If it doesn't make a difference, why waste nutes in the last week? In the last week I only feed Instant Kharma and my homemade Bud Candy (Molasses, Agave Syrup, and Barley Malt Syrup).

My G13 Haze is about to come down in the next week or so too.. Here's a quick shot:

You could save yourself a couple cents and not feed the last one or two waterings, but I don't see a point in starving a plant, or dumping chemicals claiming to get rid of nutes.

I got some info from an other board that I should use this stuff called budswel. He said even when ya flush so I did and the buds smelled just like the budswel bad. I am not using it any more an I'm not going to flush. I have about 2 weeks left and I will just add water to res when I need to but no flushing. MB
budswel doesnt have a smell,if it does its probably bad..it really has NO SMELL.

That's one hell of a beautiful picture. I mean - if you emailed me the original I'd use as a background on my computer. Simply awesome!

looks great for 1st harvest


oh and if some people are so sure that no chemicals are stored in the buds as i'd like to believe, then why is there even a debate?
