ThatZimbostarted grow question 5 years ago

I am running a 65 litre buppleponic & dwc system with flora series nutrients. My question is, at what stage should I consider flushing the plant to reduce nutrient uptake before harvest? I have read anything from 1 week to 3 days. Thanks in advance.

one of the good things about hydro is you can flush for less time so you can be more precise right ? Even just one day is enough, really, one day to three days works... i'm following someone on here flushing a hydro grow for three weeks... but yeah one day to three days... you can tell when you're ready when the plant kinda gets forced in senescence you'll know you're ready. hope this helps ! 🚀

For hydro it is 2 or 3 days. For coco 1 week and for soil 2 weeks. The question is when to start? After the calyxes have swelled and the pistils start retracting, then you flush.

So many leaves! Should I defoliate even more?I defoliated just before and even during the first week of flowering, but she keeps growing so many leaves even during the second week of flowering. Should I defoliate right now or wait a couple of weeks? I worry I could halt the flowering or cause even more useless stress...

Northern Lights Auto, quite short and bushy, fan leaves shielding light - should I defoliate?First time grower with a quite short Northern Lights Auto in week 6. The fan leaves seem to shield a lot of light from the inner leaves, also touching ground. Should I trim the fan leaves? Or should I keep them, since it already seems stressed enough for it's short life…

Defoliation late in flower on Auto's I like to defoilate, If I were to pick majority of the fan leaves off of these plants being Auto's, will they react or stress too much? I like to defoil near the end of flower to really push all the focus to the budsites. Happy Growing!

Remove leaves from auto?Should I remove fan leaves from my auto flower? I wonder since it is so crowded, I worry a bit that the leaves are pressing against the buds. But maybe that isn't a problem? I've read that removing leaves is unnecessary and stressful for the plant.
