If growing purely organically, do you still have to flush?

Hi buddy ;-) It is very important to get the rest of the nutrients out, preferably with adapted water for 10-14 days and slowly taking out the nutrients :-)

As it was mentioned to always end on a flush aimed at a PH of 6... that's what i don't do. When i flush, i don't care about the PH level anymore, but use tap-water (unless you're flushing with a diluted nutrient solution), and here's why: The reason for getting the proper PH levels during regular growth are so nutrients can properly be taken up by the plant from the growing medium.. when we flush, we want to get rid of the nutrients inside the growing medium, and want the plant to use up what it's already got inside, so why bother adjusting the PH, so it can take up even more from the left-overs from the flush (that might not be metabolized in time)? If anything, in theory it'd make more sense to change the PH to a value that doesn't kill the plant, but hinders nutrient-uptake from the medium as much as possible. Again, one of those topics where there are many different opinions ;) In either way, happy growing!

well, there's a general discussion between various growers, whether flushing is needed at all.. some say they really taste the difference, others say they don't notice it when they don't flush.. i personally would flush, even when growing organically, as i want as little as possible of the un-metabolized nutrients within the plant, and by flushing you don't really remove anything from the plant anyways, but you take it away from the growing medium, so the plant will have to use what it has left stored in itself..
