Flushing techniques with organic soil. I hate chemical tasting weed. I have organic soil in 7 gallon pots. It takes 4.2 litres to have very little run off at the bottom. 3.5 weeks left of flower. What’s your best method to flush plants in the final weeks ?

Instead of 1 week of heavy flushing, you can just water with plain water for 2 weeks, that will give the plant enough time to consume whatever is left on the soil and its own stores of nutes. Less of a mess.

Hi @SirDillton! One way to go is to let the medium dry, then fully flush the container under the shower until the runoff looks clear, then help the medium to dry faster with fans/airflow. This is a bit radical but then you don't need to do anything, your plant will have enough water until the chop and you will be able to wait for the trichomes to mature. If you use organic soil and do not like chemical taste in buds, why don't you consider using organic fertilizer? Hope this will help, let me know in the comments section if you need any further information. Happy growing! 👊

In soil I would go with a 2 week flush. So normally I would start flush when breeder says it's ready or close to it cuz by my experience I end up going a week or 2 more is when there ready checking trichomes. To flush all I do is buy distilled water/ or use ro water make sure to still ph it's important. And give only water with nothing added the last 2 weeks before harvest. You will see the plant start using the nutrients out of plant when leaves yellow.
