I do not flush plants but I grow organic. If I were growing with synthetic nutrients I would be doing drain to waste and flush towards chop!
Robertsanswered grow question 3 years ago
If you are using bottle nutrition you need to flush. And Mr nobody explained a flush where you just provide water letting plant use up nutrition. Causing a fade. Bottle nutes if being used in right amount will make flower bitter and nasty. From experience speaking. Not some article, blah blah bs. I personally ran my own experiment. So I highly recommend flushing if using fertilizer or plant foods to feed plant. Good luck and happy growing 🌱

I grow organically and don’t flush either. I let the plants starve out and fade at the end which depletes the harsh chemicals and allows nature to do its job.
Happy growing and stay high #420 😎😎🍁🍁

Hi @Hoboslim nice to meet you :)
It's really up of you if to do or not the flush. Many growers do it but I read around that there are not scientific evidences that it really helps the plants.
Take a look here and then decide by yourself

When should I LST and add Nutrients?Wanted to low stress train this plant if I am able too.I am not really sure when to start, does the plant look old enough to begin introducing this technique? Should I wait another week? Also when should I start feeding the plant nutrients? It’s still growing pretty fast.

Confused with light schedules for outdoor growingHi fellow growers, I'm really confused with light schedules for outdoor growing.
Everywhere I see 18/6 for veg and 12/12 for flowering.
However at my place I get ~13hours of daylight (not always sunlight)
Would my plants get into flowering if daylight is reduced to ~11 hours?
