Yea that's my point, he uses jacks classic so he needs to do something to avoid the taste of synthetic ferts. I thought you were all organic? If so, then no need to flush or boil. Just water as normal and harvest when ready.

It isn't a flush. It kills the roots and suffocates the plant, forcing it to draw the rest of its energy from the leaves and it also begins the fermentation process.

This "energy" I'm assuming you meant carbohydrates (sugars), but theyre not stored in the leaves. They are stored in whats called "sink cells" located in new growth areas (roots & buds).

If you have ever seen fans fade at the end of flower, that is what I'm referring to.

A plant doesn't recognize the difference in synthetic and organic...

It actually matters a lot to the final product, though. You don't get the same complexity you get from a plant grown with complex organic matter when grown with chelated nutrients.

Ah, you mean, starving you plant of nutrients.
Annual plants don't need help with this. Gibberellin hormones will make this happen without forcing it.
Withholding nutrients will only slow growth and development.

Your mom does! And so do I.
You can't sit here and tell me synthetics taste the same as organics. GTFO with that bullshit.

I disagree, but to each his own..

Not when it's at peak, where you want it. This suffocation of the roots also assists in fermentation. That's the theory. Also, it's good for sterilizing soil for reuse.

Tell me something.. how does one make a synthetic element?

Chemical synthesis of elements and compounds.

Regarding chelation, it's bound to a metal/salt.

Look dude I'm not going to argue with you. I'm talking about how the finished product tastes. I don't care about whatever dumb shit you're talking about
