To flush or not

No science here. Pseudo science at best. It's all subjective. In my opinion a slow dry on the stem is more important for getting a smooth smoke than the flush. I still flush though.

never had headaches from my weed. haven't flushed in 3 years recent years of teh 5 i've been growing. no differene in taste relative to differnt strains. there;s so much bad information in this answer sections it's kind afunny.. lots of unfounded hypothesis that could easily be tested and likely shown to be false.

Flush. If you chose not too, you'll have a headache when smoking the weed you've grown, the taste will be mainly made up of the chemicals you've been adding. It ruins the final product. I'll want to have put through at least a week of just water at the very least.

Only time you don't need to is if you are growing organic. Any other way then flush, and fade for last 2 weeks. So right as it finishes bulking go to a ph water. Let her freak out, and sometimes color morph. It will promote ripening of buds as well. Plus smoke will be better tasting, and smoother. I also do 48 hours darkness to start purging the chlorophyll out of plant for a smoother smoke. I like to get high not cough my ass off. You will find tons of debate on both these questions. I am letting you know from my years of experience, and trying different ways. Good luck on your choice 🌱👍🏻

despite common feelings.. it impacts mineral content of flower in no measurable way... still contructed of the same stuff in same proportions... So, if some matter is made of the same thigns in same proportions and configurations it is the same thing.. how would it cause any change in taste? technology and pre-existing competent methods show mineral content doesn't change in an incontrovertible way. blind taste tests show ppl cannot discern between flushed and non-flushed... it's sometimes hard to admit and sometime embaassing to admit an untested belief is wrong, but it does happen. it should in no way make anyone feel bad about it. it shouldn't be tied to the ego in the first place.

Hello. Yes, I flush. I find if I don't flush, then I get, bad burning-black hard ash and bad tasting smoke. There was a study done a few years ago by some nutrient company that said we don't have to flush anymore. You can google and read it yourself. I find holes in this study. The nutrient co. could make a lot of money if they can convince you not to flush. The samples were mailed out with The Perfect Pipe which has a filter that takes out most of the bad taste. The study also said that a certain % of people can't tell the difference between flushed and not flushed buds when smoked. Some people will try to convince you that, you don't flush your vegetables why do you need to flush your smoke. My answer is- when you eat something bad your body can get rid of it from both ends, sometimes at the same time 😞 But when you smoke it goes straight to your blood stream via your lungs. I don't need anymore more crap in my blood stream, so I flush. If you grow organic you don't need to flush and if you grow your vegetables organic then you'll have a happy tummy. Chuck.

Personally, I think it makes a difference. It's much cleaner with a more pronounced flavour & most importantly, no chemical cough. If you haven't overfed with nutrients, just plain ph water for a week or two prior to harvest works too

Definitely flash you don't want to smoke nutrients
