This has been something I hve been unclear on for some time. How do u correctly flush indoors with potted plants in soil/soiless media? I realize that the water should be RO or distilled but tap water left out overnight is also acceptable. I think we can all agree up to this point with very few arguments (from those who advocate flushing). I would like to know how exactly to administer the flush. Obviously I'm not gonna dump 5-10 gals of water over 1-5gal pots at once. So how is the water administered? When feeding I try to wait 15 mins before next application of nutes to give it time to work its way thru the medium, just how I was taught. Should I do the same when I flush? I really need an answer now but I want this to be what newbies look at to get this question answered. Not 21 different threads with 10 different answers. So moderators and pros please help!! My plant is still draining it media as we speak. When flushing to treat a deficiency how do u go about it? I've read that ur supposed to flush with water 1st then with a light nute blend (1/4 to 1/2 strength). But again I'd like to know how often to apply how much during the flush. Thanks guys. Let try to get ALL of the info we can and maybe we can make this a sticky so people can stop asking.
