ThatZimbostarted grow question 8y 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.

Podar o no podar??Should I remove the leaves and some more stems?? I think so to improve ventilation in the lower area and boost the higher tips, although I've already done two prunings and I'm starting the third week of flowering, and there are some who say it's better not to remove them.. what to do??

Based on the dreadful pictures I have, does anyone agree she is ready to be cut? Will have to trust me when I say there seems to be the majority of trichomes either cloudy or amber.
I know the leaves are bad looking, I think she got too hot for a few days when I went away :(Week 11

How much to defoliate?How much should I be defoliating right now? I've been attempting to apply the lollipop method but it's painful to keep pruning. I don't know how far to go. There are some fan leaves that are yellowing and limp towards the bottom which don't recieve as much light. Clip em too?
