I don’t flush but do as you wish.

Ive read lately that flushing might be all wrong. I think when I harvest it I will not flush it. Why rob it of nutrients?

It’s all a bunch of horse shit. In hydro I reduce the nutrients down effectively tapering them to 200ppm and my super soil grows just go and stay green an heathy start to finish.

Would you recommend SoHum as a super soil? Sorry to bother you...

HOLD ON!! So flushing isn't good? I thought it was necessary in order to get a good flavor and less harsh smoke.

Ive heard that as well but other theories are being forwarded, by quite a few people...

If your in hydro or using chems then flush if your organic do t really need to all in all if you don’t overfeed and not burning your plants your plants don’t have excess nutrient build up no need to flush nowadays it’s a preference some do some don’t Looking good by the way

Giving plain water, before harvest, helps the leaf material yellow, deceasing the amount of chlorophyll in combustible foliage, decreasing burnt leave taste. It will not "flush" nutrient from a plant that has already uptake and is showing signs of nute burn.

My five runs I have used nothing but organic. I have not flushed and the smoke is smooth and nearly top shelf. I hope with my experience growing that I continue to experience success. I know I will face failures and adversity but I am arming myself with knowledge for when these problems arise.

am moving to OK so I will face mold issues if i am not careful as well as pests. I do try to grow pest resistant strains however.
