FLUSH QUESTION: As I’m growing with organics(pl...
DankGardeneranswered grow question 5 years ago
For last 2-3 weeks before harvest, give 1/2 tsp of Blackstrap Molasses per gallon when watering. Giving this to your plants for the last few weeks before harvest can help them get bigger and smell/taste better. And with a perfect dry and cure you will be set for some 🔥

Hi, i agree with Grey_wolf. Personally I find that IF you didn't overnute them during their life there is no need to flush it. And from what I understood, even if you flush, you're not going to get out the excess of nutrients, especially in the end of flowering. Not feeding your plant the last week of flowering is purely economical, at least in soil I find. I find that the correct drying and curing gives the weed it's smooth taste, IF you didn't overnute your plants during their life.

@Casso Flushing is a bit of a myth although can be useful to remove excess nutrient buildups after an overfeed or similiar.
The idea of starving a plant during it's most active and maturing stage goes against everything I was taught in Biology.
Perhaps leave one plant unflushed and see if it's any different than the ones that were flushed for a week or more.
I bet it yields heaviest

I can't answer for Plagron, but yes with organics one week plain watering (not flush) is recommended but I would do one flush out and then water until ready. Leave dry for the last 5 days before harvest and even darkness for 24 hours can all help get stinky, sticky buds

Just water ! Plain pH’d water at 6.5 and nothing else ! You’ll get a very smooth smoke 😉

Defoliate?Should I defoliate? As you can see in the pics, only the very top two nodes are growing fans, but it is getting crowded up on the canopy. The growth in the middle is from bottom branches that didn't stretch all the way up to the canopy, might use those for edible extraction.

Defoliate more?Should I defoliate more? side branching is intense and I'm not sure if it will result in larf or actual nug. Trimmed a lot of the weak looking side braching that was not exposed to light. Still looks rather bushy for my liking but I don't want to stunt them or reduce yields.Week 7

Excessive nodes and autoflowersMy plants have SO SO many nodes. In my opinion they have way way too many branches. Is there anything at all I could do as far as cutting/pinching, some of them off? They’re autoflowers and I’ve only really found people saying don’t do it.
