PsyCLown Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 So always has been a heated debate. I have personally flushed before - with plain water and with chelated stuff such as florakleen. I have also not flushed and I no longer flush. I feed my plants up until harvest. I stumbled upon this video, still busy watching it but a bit of research has been done on it and so far quite interesting. So far it seems as if there isn't much of a difference, I find it interesting though that with the terpene percentage, there certainly seems to be a trend though - could be coincidence. The longer the plant was flushed for, the lower the percentage of terpenes. However it's still a minimal difference and how noticeable it would be, unlikely I feel. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ill_Evan Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 The highlight is that there is no statistical difference so basically whether you flush or not is entirely subjective to the user. It's kind of like those dude's that pour vodka over a specifically cut diamond because "it enhances the flavour". At the very least you're saving on a week or two of nutes if you do flush If this is the case, flushing is solely a method of rinsing out your medium in case of a nutrient lockout or incorrect feeding. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure, I think definitely for coco, but for soil I think one just re-amends and lets sit for a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsyCLown Posted September 17, 2020 Author Share Posted September 17, 2020 For coco it's possibly easier and more effective to rinse it all in a tub as opposed to flushing the plants. Sent from my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoloKush Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Hey guys I flush for 2 days just to give the plants a clean drink of water.. ive noticed when doing this the drying time is shortened from 8 to 10 days to 6 to 7 days well for me anyway.. smoke was a little less harsh when smoked immediately after drying than compared to no flush.. well again I say this is how its for me anyway.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheUltimateNoob Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 I've never been one for flushing anyway, just water twice in the last 4 days.I'm so glad they're finally put this debate to rest Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
