When to start flushing
jamjam887766started grow question 6y ago
Should I stop adding nutrients and just give the plants plain water now? I'm in Week 8 and many of the FastBuds Pineapple Express Auto grows I've seen harvest around week 10. Would switching to just water be a sufficient flush?

Don't flush. It doesnt do anything but starve your plants.

Hello. Yes flush with tap water. I extra flush. I use 1 ounce of 35% hydrogen peroxide to 5 gallons of water. Do a test. Cut some buds (enough for a couple of joints) before you flush and dry them. Put away in a air tight container. when your grow is done and cured pull out the unflushed buds and do a side by side taste test. You decide for your next grow.

Soil amendingThis 20 gallon pot is Fox Forest soil heavily amended. There are 3 plants growing and doing great. I want to plant new plants where the clover is growing as soon as these finish. My plan is to slowly add amended soil to the top. Will this work? Will the next round be successful?

Droopy plantFirst thought over watered in a fabric pot feeding 3ml a day in 1L ph’d water, 24 hours later no improvement. Now I’m pushed to a nitro excess or a feed excess as most leaves are shiney solid green. Still using oldtimer grow as 5 days into flower. Should I flush and move to bloom

Foliar spray in DWCCan you use a foliar spray made from organics (fulvic and humid acid, potash, sea kelp, wetting agent) in a DWC? Or is using any organic material more trouble than it's worth? Is week 3 too early for foliar spraying? Hoping to green my thumb a bit. Thanks

NL Auto Day 56 — after major nutrient imbalance: I don’t know how to rehabilitate or determine when ready to flush and harvest... Suggestions for a n00I committed a n00b mistake & got the nutes all outa whack during bloom. Now the fan leaves are yellowing and brittle. The stigmas are also turning orange, but I don’t see ANY amber trichs — maybe just burned? I fed again, but don’t know how to tell when to flush for harvest. THX!

Mix Dynomyco in water?I’m about to water my plant today. I haven’t used any Dynomyco since she’s been transplanted in this 5 gallon fabric pot.
Can I mix in some Dynomyco in my water and apply it like that or should I just top dress a little and then just water the medium? Happy growing!

Can I use this as a top dressing ? If yes, do I put it on top before or after watering ? Sorry if this seems daft, I'm used to bottled nutesGreat white shark Can I use this stuff as a top dressing ?? I've been thinking of doing so, but I'm worried it may affect the pH. I've been adding it to the water before feeding.
