Dirty flush? A tea for the end run.

Now, I know that flushing is itself up for debate but, I use coco on an ebb and flow and I know salt builds up etc. I have several interests in flushing and the way I choose to do so. Primarily, I want the plant to continue growth, unimpeded by shock, and metabolically gifted a way to use the lesser amounts of nutrients available at the end. So, usually I just run clean phed water and leech out stored salts and/or top feed to clean even further. This time, I decided to use humic acid in a tea with cannazym, bennies, carbs, and a touch of nutes to hold the ph stable. After a solid initial flush the tea is added. Now, running a sterile reservoir in the flower cycle has been good to me and I do not mix organics in to avoid slime...etc. In flushing, 3 things usually happen. 1. The roots are disturbed by rinsing 2. The signs of lockout/ deficiency become pronounced, 3. The ability of plants to eat is challenged and ignored because the time of harvest is about purging. I want this one time soak in tea to jump start flushing by breaking down stored nutrients that need biological assistance to metabolize. This makes the less, more usable and opens the organic humates to perform in a flushing capacity. Without adding chemicals the plants are eating and growing and maybe a bit better off in the end.

Total Dribble, you are at harvest flush you plants of those mettallic tasting nutes, allow to recover ...overnite and butcher you plant in thew morning, what you are doing is really consideration for when the plant hits budd, not at the end

I am trying different measures to take because the same old shit works well it just bores me. The end is a time that people tend to ignore....not me.

It is what it is, a "weed"," the end is the end.

the end is after flush, harvest, dry, cure and for me, I hold crazy high standards. For some, it is just a weed...for others it is good medicine, personally I am invested in the process of making it artful.

Nothing wrong with experimenting. Have you considered using drip clean to make the final flush smoother? You could probably add a few of those items from the tea throughout the entire flower to help metabolize those salts too.
