9 days of flushing in hydro (clay pebbles), is it enough ? Thx
Maskedcucumberstarted grow question 2 years ago
6 or 7 days of flushing at 0.3 EC and leaves are still not yellowing. I fed them almost all run at 1.15 including 0.4 nutes from tap water which seems quite weak to me but they wouldn't eat more. I've been told from 4 to 15 days for a good flush in hydro. What's your experience ?

About 10 days before harvest I bring the feed down to .8 and see how she reacts. Typically I bring the EC down to .5-.6 by harvest time. (DWC)
There have been 2 studies that show flushing is ineffective in reducing the nutrient concentration in buds. Not sure of the obsession of killing your plants before harvest.
A dying plant is more susceptible to bud rot, WPM and pests.
So keep them healthy and happy all the way through.

Flushing is a myth, the water does not remove anything that's all ready inside the plant. its been debunked but if it makes you feel better continue on with what you are doing. Any sort of agent/product marketed for flushing is a even bigger waste of money and time.
Good Luck!

High Maskedcucumber,
Give it a few more days. It is an indication that when her leaves start to change colours that she is using her nutrition storage.
I always flush around 10 days on coco. And I flush the coco pretty heavy with around 25% pot volume every time I flush.
Happy Harvest! 😋

I do 1 to 2 weeks in hydro. Coco I tend to do 2 weeks. They don't seem to start fading till after a week of nothing but ph water. A week regardless getting nutes out of plant. After that it is just desired ripeness. Enjoy🤜🤛🌱

Piccola piantina contortaGrazie a tutti per il problema precedente!!! Vorrei farvi vedere questa piantina che al 26 esimo giorno si presenta ancora piccola e contorta... secondo il mio punto di vista (da amatore ) direi che è un problema di radice e ph. Fatemi sapere cosa pensate.

Thoughts about harvestingHello guys ! This question is about my Purple Queen Auto.
She's a little bit over 8 weeks old now (5 weeks into flowering) and I really don't know when to harvest her.
I know about the trichrome method but I only have my eyes to zoom haha
So, when do you think she will be ready?
