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!

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 https://atrium.lib.uoguelph.ca/xmlui/bitstream/handle/10214/12125/Stemeroff_Jonathan_201712_Msc_with_erratum.pdf Have an happy grow 👌👌👌.

Can you please check SK#1 2/2 because I can see she is not soo good in shape. I mean maybe I put too much of Magnesium into the Water? It was maybe more than 1/3 of a tea-spoon per liter of epsom salt. And she looks really dark greenish... What can I do? Thanks 🙏

Which fertilizer should be used in the early flowering stage?There is an autoflower plant that has just started to bloom. I water twice a week, one with fertilizer and one without fertilizer. Do you think it should be switched to bloom fertilizer at this stage, or should grow fertilizer be given for another week since it is still growing?
