When should I begin the flushing process for my OG...

Snoikestarted grow question 7y ago

When should I begin the flushing process for my OG Glueberry Auto? Normally it would be starting 2 weeks prior to harvest. Is that still applicable to Auto strain? Do they need two weeks of flushing, or will one week suffice?

The process is the same for auto and photo, when you are flushing it is to get rid of the excess nutrients of the soil ( to wash them away) and also to make the plant use the last nutrient she has stocked in her system. So the process will require the same amount of time in both cases. Flush your Glueberry auto like you would flush a Glueberry photoperiodic 😊👍

Have you ever tried not flushing? There was a recent study that showed there's a 5% or less difference in nute content between flushed and non-flushed buds. You basically only hurt yields a bit by flushing and it doesn't do a whole lot other than that. I have personally tried a flushed vs non-flushed harvest myself and they taste and smoke exactly the same.

Currently I'm running the full spectrum of GHE nutrients, but beginning to run low. My question is this: What nutrient brand do you use, and why? I run in Coco, so it'd need to be versatile.

My grow tent drops down to 65 (75-80 with the fan on low settings during 16 hour light cycles) during the off 8 hours of the light cycle, I would like to establish a more consistent temperature, or at least ideally keep the grow tent closer to 70 while the lights are off. How?

Anyone had a pepper-y aroma in a pheno of something normally very tasty? The other plants are really quite nice, very Kush-y - had a few popcorn buds in the vape - but one has this really stinging black pepper aroma to it. Will this turn into something more pleasant with curing?

I have germinated some auto seeds and started sitting them outside but I want to move them inside to a grow tent and grow them there. Is there a problem with starting plants outside then moving them under led lighting for the veg/bloom? Anything you need to watch out for?

Should I cut the first leaves to maximize the grow Hello everyone A friend told my that I should cut the first leaves of my plants (the first that came out from the plants, not the cotyledons) What do you think about this idea ? And can this really maximize the size of the future buds ? Thank you for your responses ! :)
