okay so I am nearing my first harvest, about 2 weeks away. I planted a germinated seed on MAY 1st... i started nutes, then stopped because the nute burn, I replanted and cleaned the tent because i found a tiny bug, then i tried FIM for the first time... which did nothing btw. Now I have some...
Yes thats what I was learning, flush was for overfeeding, so it makes sense if they're not overfed no need to flush. I was surprised to learn the minerals never leave the buds regardless of flush or no flush. Very interesting

What a read! Thanks for opening my eyes I'm glad I asked!
Thank you!! I think I will leave one plant water only flush till the end as an experiment and the other 3 I will keep feeding, regular bloom nutes? Don't change the strength Im using? I use the general hydroponics trio
Because the reading I've done says it makes it less harsh, and also not watering for a couple days at the end might cause them to plump up in a last ditch effort to save itself. I haven't read as much on NOT flushing, i guess I need to do more reading! I have defoliated and I feel like that helps
hi everyone! This is our first crop and just was hoping for some insight on timing... these girls are in the middle of week 6 of 12/12. I think they need another of 7 to 10 days along with a flush... would you agree? If not, what are your suggestions?
