The problem started when I had read about doing a mid flower flush to keep my res clean...
Used clearex at 25ml/ gal for a little under a day..... and then started back with my botanicarePBP... My plants are in the 4th week of flower and I am close to loosing both of them! I WOULD NOT DO A MID FLOWER FLUSH EVER!!! (or maybe i did something wrong) but i followed the clearex directions and most of the places I read about the mid flower flush recomends for 2 days. ( if i would have let mine go for one more day I am sure we would be looking at 2 dead plants. From this point what do i do to salvage this harvest?

Wow man that just sucks. I feel for ya. The lesson here is "If it aint broke dont fix it!" You didn't BUY clearex, it was SOLD to you. IDK what clearex is. which tells me its not nessessary. Wish i could help ya, good luck.

Dude, I think you're only supposed to use Clearex for 30-60 minutes max (until PPM stops rising), not for a whole day.

Prolly hosed the roots :sad:
 
if you are going to flush plants make sure its with 100% distilled water thats all you need during flowering you only want to water your plant

Yea I hear ya, the lesson for all is to not flush during flowering even for a short time like I did.. By tonight 80 % of my leaves have shriveled and died ...... I would still like to hear from someone that has done a mid flower flush with hydroponics and clearex... Maybe I used 2 much? I can not pull the plants out of the box when they are in full flower and when I pulled the buckets apart at the end of the last cycle there was a black smelly mess at the bottom I use 2 airstones and change my res one time per week. That is why I decided to do a mid flower flush (i use clearex at the end of my cycle for a week and a half works great just NOT-MID FLOWER on HYDROPONICS!!)
