How's it going @trini girls look good
but I don't flush, or use cal-mag, I do use a little Epsom salts some times, but yeah I never flush, unless you want to call nothing but water for the last 2 weeks flushing 
What medium are you in?
Hi Trini, looking good! Flushing has been revised. Here's a link to a link where it's explained.

Thanks for the reply, I still have a month to go until they should be ready( I don't know if 2 more weeks helps)and they are in soil.How's it going @trini girls look good
What medium are you in?
Do you use tap water? Or does your nutrient formulation include lots of calcium?
Yeah man, I'm in soil also
FFOF with the FF trio nutrients, and I meant that I only use water the last 2 weeks of flower.......Don't know if you know this or not, but plants are like humans in the way we use our food/nutrients, if the plant can't use it, it becomes waste, no need to flush...just my 2 cents 
I'm in FFOF and I do use a little Epsom salts when they need to green up a bit, and yes straight tap water

Thanks
The reason why I asked MochaBud if he was using tap water is because it generally contains lots of calcium, often as much "extra" Ca as the plants require. In that case, Epsom salt (for supplemental magnesium) - which is, as he mentioned, what he uses - can be better than a combo "Ca/Mg" product, because having too much calcium will upset the Ca:Mg ratio (and can also cause other issues).
Because not everyone uses the exact same things, it can be important to point stuff like this out, to aid in understanding.
Hey @trini, I'm going to give you a little unsolicited advice ............
Well, I was going to give you some advice, but I was beat to it
...Oh yeah, I was also going to say...that's why I use tap water instead of distilled, because it doesn't have any of the macro nutrients your plant needs, where tap water does 
Distilled water is good if you are in organic soil. No need to flush in soil but if you are running Soilless soil (promix, sunshine, etc. i would recommend watering the last 10-14 days. Just preference with me as i could tell the smoke was smoother from the plant turning its fall colors, instead of green.
Tap water is fine and good source for Calcium if your PPM is low.
Just my opinion, good luck buddy

Thanks for the quick reply and I use Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil in ten-gallon cloth pots and so far so good. Just seeing if it works or not as there so much info out on Utube.
