Flushing with organic nutrients added to water. Is it flushing?

gorynychstarted grow question 1y ago

Hi there! I've been feeding with mineral nutes for some time and now it seems a bit overfed so I wanna try to move to organic nutes to make the process easier and not so harmful for the plant. Can I flush excess nutes not with plain water but with little organic nutes added?

I am not sure it's a good idea to to radically change nutrients during flowering stage. I guess more experienced growers may even advice don't flash at all, but simply cut down on nutrients you are already giving or do nothing at all.

Theoretically you can, but it may take at least twice (or more) as much water comparing to regular flashing. If you are trying to save on nutrients - don't, you may end up wasting more (comparing to regular flashing & feeding afterwards). You may use regular tap water for flashing without correcting pH, you just need to let it breathe for a couple (or little more days) to let chlorine evaporate.
