The Truth About Flushing

I agree that flushing is a myth. I did it all the time in the beginning - just read so much about how important it was that i didn't bother try not to.
Now i never do it. I just found out some time when i needed to harvest and smoke a plant very suddenly ;O) - I cured the bud without flushing first and the smoke came out so nice. I learned that no matter if flushing was/is a myth or not - very smooth smoke could be made without flushing but with the right curing. Never flushed since and i make the best bud in this area. Everybody wants it because it's so soft to smoke even though never flushed. The weed burns very nicely and does NOT have black crisp ash from the fertilizers inside the plant.

No doubt in my mind: Flushing IS a myth - my plants are happier than ever.

One more thing about the drowning of the plant starting fermentation processes before harvesting. If it only takes 10 days to test this out by simply submerge a plant for those days - why the hell has no one done this and reported back yet??? - I will be testing this next time i am near harvest. Just wonder why the heck no one has done this to try it out yet ;O)

How do you deal with the budrot?
The plants are gonna go into a high rate of transpiration which will result in water on the buds.
I can see you handling it for a couple days but a week?
I feel like yer ducking some pretty good questions and I'm having a really hard time finding pics of yer plants riddleme,can you please provide a link to some of yer pics.

I also included some bud porn for your viewing pleasure,,,,,,,Enjoy[/QUOTE]
I was just in there,dude yer experiance level is way down there.
I understand why ya don't wanna do any kind of growshow for the masses now.
I said it before and I'll say it again,you strike me as a smart guy who's well read but lacks practical experiance,yer giving bad advice to people,yer grow was mediocre at best.
You say you have no ego about this thing we do,time to put that to a test.
I am unafraid and if yer ideas are correct I will say I am wrong without hesitation or hard feelings.

riddleme, do you remember the troll flow chart from the other night. now may be the time to follow it. I dont mind haters and they are sometimes interesting to watch. but when they make you wanna hit the unsubscribe button then it's bad.

Hey taint, I was unable to find any of your grows. Just a thread introducing your self and your years of growing, and a ISO hash how to. A lot of folks you can read enough to know if they really have experience or not, and some you have to check up on. Well I didnt have to check up on you I was pretty sure from the start, but doing the check proved my first thought. And I my friend am somewhat of a noob, who is coming into my own and getting the feel for this thing, thanks to people like riddleme sharing. You havent been the one sharing your research and experience, or lack thereof, with the people of this forum or thread. You are merely distracting from the positive experience we could all be having. Please find something good in what you read to post back something positive. Being "old and crabby" is not an excuse for your continued disrespect to us all.

Ya know what taint? Why don't ya just bounce on back to the advanced grow room so you can spread your infinite wisdom their because no one around here wants to here it from ya. Riddle's information is backed with sound science and research and I have read every post and link. I chose to follow his advise on my own because of it, not because some one said I should. I am extremely happy with the way my plant's turn out and I can think of no member that has ever come back and said Riddle's information fucked up there grow. Obviously there are numerous ways to achieve success growing this plant and the "Making It Rain" technique is only but one of which in my opinion works for me and the countless members who have thanked him for helping them out.

Now if ya have something positive to add to the thread instead of how wrong we are and how "mediocre our grows are than by all means post it. But if you are just going to demean and criticize than like I said earlier BOUNCE"
