Flush

fine without 100%

So, each stage of growth has a specific ratio. Transition is 1:1:1 Late Flowering is 0:3:3 Running 2 gallons of pH balanced water with a kelp/seaweed extract would be very beneficial for your plants. What it permits is for the plant to use up the STORED energy in the fan leaves for food, instead of what’s in the soil. This is a stressor, but a very natural one found in nature. Less nutrients in the soil - especially the one that feeds chlorophyll- should be lowered as much as possible. Some will say I am crazy, but then how do THEY reach the recommendation of 0:3:3 ( no nitrogen ) during end of flower which last 3-4 weeks pending strain. I call it rinsing the plant. 2 gallows will lower the nutrient levels and allow you to add small changes in the last few weeks if need be. When using Organics, the plant uses what it needs over time. Nitrogen is utilized up until week 7. Meaning your last nitrogen amendment needs to be finished in the soil by week 7.

No need to flush if you're all organic. There is no build up in the soil. The plants will not have any harsh chemicals or heavy metals. She will have everything she needs to finish. There is a Dr. Bugbee who has some YouTube videos. He likes to feed right up until harvest. He is not organic. I'm not saying he is right. However without flushing, if there is something your plant needs, she will have it.

Flushing is a tool for high EC problems... nothing more... nothing less. You can have high EC issues with so-called "organic" grows (just a meaningless marketing term with little to no correlation with reality) or with non-organic fertilizers, which again.. is just a marketing term and has nothign to do with cause and effect of any of these products. "Organic" is a bastardized science term. It means nothing useful in the merketing sense. FFS, CO2 is an inorganic compound and plants need it... just as we need inorganic compounds in our bodies to survive or live healthily. So, do you have a toxicity goign on? If so, flushing is a good option to make use of after you have exhausted all other options, because it strips the soil of nutes... and if stripped too much it will only slow your plant down further, even if it is the better of the two options... you can more easily ramp up nutes than remove them. Ramping up quickly fixes problems, but a toxicity takes longer to fix in most contexts. Flushing is a tool for a specific problem. It has real casue and effect in this context. The mysticism associated with it for end of harvest is simply not true. The reasons the "peanut gallery" gave intially are all wrong. it makes no impact on mineral content of bud material. it is indistinguishable in blind taste tests. There is no cause and effect here. Organic or not is irrelevant.

Flushing is designed to rid your soil and your plant of the chemicals you've been giving her... and since you've not been giving chemicals, there's no need to flush.... Good luck!

I chased organic grows for 7 years now ... All nute company have that policy, stop feeding, let them grow ... There no scientific proof, just one nute company made comparison... You have to do long research ... And those myth as last dark hours, cold water, milk and etc has only personal preference THATS IT. I can tell mine. Was pushed to move out, had quickest harvests, with just few plain waterings before ... And that weed is still harsh after half year, no cure helps ... Before i always had in SOIL 3-4 waterings plain at least, sometimes 4 weeks no feed, not real flush (did those too), but reasonable feed stop - does magic too....

Nope you’ll be just fine without flushing. The main reason most growers need to flush is to help get rid of excess salt buildup and use what remaining nutrients that are left in the soil. Organics won’t usually leave behind salts of any kind, and if they do they are then consumed by microbes 😊
