"anybody who likes quality smoke will tell you different. Unflushed is harsh and snaps, crackles and pops when burning even if cured properly. Flushed is nice and smooth"Dont count 8 weeks from flipping the lights. The breeders generally go from the first sign if preflowers, which is usually a week or so after flip.
When i did northern lights #5, i went 9 weeks from flip and then flushed...let em go for 4 days then chopped.
Some people say flushing is stupid, but....anybody who likes quality smoke will tell you different. Unflushed is harsh and snaps, crackles and pops when burning even if cured properly. Flushed is nice and smooth.....
The amount of weight that you might, maybe lose by not flushing is very very minimal if you let thebflowers finish properly...
so not true
true.Seriously. Should I go flush my apple trees and pumpkins? This the season. Oh wait, when researching " flushing plants" its all links to here and other stoner sites. Weird, I guess all of the agricultural operations in the world are missing something.
If your weed "pops" or doesn't burn right, try drying it more instead of going on a campaign of lies with your poor plants.
true.listen to the botanist!Ok people, flushing doesn't work the way it's regurgitated on these forums.
1. You cannot remove "artificial fertilizers" from the plant itself.
2. You can flush (leech) salts that are built up in the soil.
3. Wether you use synthetic or organic ferts, the plant doesn't give a shit. Organic ferts are slow release and arnt readily available. microbes break that down into an inorganic form which is usable for your plant. Synthetics are immediately available for use by your plant.
4. Wether you choose to flush or not, your dry and curing process is what affects the flavor of your product.
5. Idk why any of you would choose to starve your plant from nutes a couple of weeks before harvest. That is one of the most critical points in your plants life and you want to stop feeding it?
6. Last but not least, flushing will starve the root zone of oxygen, think about what happens when you overwater. No oxygen to the roots and your plant starts to die. The benefit from that is that you will actually begin the curing process while your plant is alive.

Read that and take from it what you can, or ignore it and keep doing what you believe is best for you
Also as for the snap pop crackle, some say it's due to Unfermented sugars in the plant or I've also read that it could be magnesium.
