Pure water for the last couple weeks should do it. Anyone have suggestions?

With synthetic nutes I've had best luck with an actual flush - around the same
Volume as the amount of soil used for 2 weeks just pure water. I use to flush heavy for the first 1-2 watering a, then just pure water from there on out. Good to experiment though. Just depends how heavy you are feeding really. If you weaken the nutes toward the end then you don't have to flush as heavy

Damn! I love you guys so much information! :clap:....keep guys like me from fckn up. I know this probably should be a different post but what about growing 80/20...80% organic, 20% synthetic would that make a difference in the grow or having to do all that flushing?

I wouldn't no. Depending on many variables, synthetic can kill the microbes. You have to understand that nute uptake happens differently between both organic and synthetic. Synthetic feeds the plant directly where organic the microbes attach to the roots and they feed the plant. I read much on using urea before adding it and even though it's not organic I use such tiny increments I'm really not hurting anything. You should really go to the organics section and read about microbes and what they do for your plant. It's a good read.

Week #6 of veg from 3" clone. Hopefully I get 30ish more days before she starts to flower.
Nutrient schedule starts this week to try and get her as big as I can in a month. Better late than never.

Very nice. What's gonna happen when they start to flower..are you going to bend them down? They look like they're gonna burst out of that greenhouse once flowering is triggered. Great job brother.

I'm planning on letting it get as tall as it needs. I'll tie and trellis as needed. Not hiding from anything other than the wind.

thank you. May be a little unconventional in the how to in that department. The way I tie down a spread out also supports the buds weight. I start bending over at 6 feet in July, an continue to bend till first week of August, then the final tie down an wait. One pic you can see the band an recovery, the other is my method for tie down an support. Not pretty but effective
