The general rule, as I see it mate, is if using organic feed don't worry, I've chopped with no flush and been fine. If chemical nutes, like plant magic soil grow then after the last feed, water it and let it dry at least. There's so many variables growing pot it's just impossible to call some things with a 100% guarantee. But I agree with that skeleton guy, there has been alot of effort gone into finding out if a flush matters or not.

RX Green Technologies Actually published research leaning towards flushing is not needed and actually hurts your overall yield, and people prefer I flushed bud over flushed when in a blind taste test. High times published an article on it a little over a year ago. Here’s the link https://hightimes.com/grow/new-research-shows-flushing-plants-before-harvest-may-be-unnecessary/ Read this article and you will be convinced flushing is not needed at all. I personally just drop to half nutrients at the last week or so. Hope this helps! Cheers 💨

Akkoord met 4F1M6. Ik spoel amper omdat ik biologisch en weinig voeding geef. Mijn eigen keuze. Zou ik gebruikmaken van bijvoorbeeld boosters, zou ik liever goed doorspoelen. 🌱

The general target for most growers is 10-14 days flushing period. If your grow went errorless you could go a bit less. If you experienced overfeeding throughout your grow the 14 days is pretty essential. So feeding habits can play a large factor into target flushing time. Side note some growers dont flush at all. Plus claim smooth clean smoke. So I guess u can say flushing time or just flushing in general is personal preference. Happy growing and stay lit fam.
