[The Prof]

Whats up I'm on ma 2nd grow..and I hear of alotta yall talkin about flushing the plant when using fox farm nuets..I didnt do this on the first grow and didnt notice any amazing negatives but can someone explan the flushin process?? thanks alot

[The Prof]

you flush to purge the soil of nutes and additives.

^correct. Flushing removes the build up of salts, and gives you a smoother smoke when you harvest.

[The Prof]

ok thanks how do you flush the plant??

[Medical Marijuana]

To flush, I water through 1 1/2 times the volume of the pot. This will remove the bulk of any salts that have accumulated.

[The Prof]

ok so u just heavily water the plant with no nutrients??

[Medical Marijuana]

Yep, and allow for flow through to remove salts.

[The Prof]

theres only one small hole in the bottom of each pot so for better flow should I drill a few more?? or u think one will be enough?

[POTential]

definitely, you can make larger quantities of smaller holes in order to increase efficiency with drainage.
