Hi Guys, help me not to mess things up 😅😂 In a few days I'll have to rinse the plant in the bottom right, I'm afraid that by removing the net and rinsing it separately like I usually do, the plants will break because this time they are long and heavy. What do you recommend? I'm looking for advice.

@TheCalyxLaboratory , welcome to the site captain. been seeing a lot of AI copy and paste responses to questions. you do you, G. the AI says too much and loses itself. for example, the "Scientific studies have shown that flushing for weeks doesn't actually lower the nutrient content inside the buds," you refer to by proxy of using the AI's response is actually a niche paper from Canada on water delivery optimization where an ad-hoc review of nutrient levels as a spot check asked for more research and money to look into this phenom... basically, a science paper at the graduate (master's level) on drip irrigation said a one liner with a measurement about nutrient levels, and now here you are repeating that. that paper wasnt on flushing. that paper wasnt on nutrient levels in plant mass. that paper ended like all papers do. noting every possible avenue for more funding (then asking for............more funding.....). that is academia brrudda. i note that this was a master's level paper because we have had formal phds in the West in this space for half a decade now from accredited unis. furthermore, even the premise is facetious. who ever said flushing has anything to do directly with mineral content in flower mass? nobody EVER said that.... flushing is about the medium and rootzone, anything else is confounded by dependencies and that is simply understanding cultivation basics. on flushing... i love having this debate with folks, because the ones repeating these arguments are simply not prepared for real debate. if flushing has no purpose, explain EC oscillations over 24 hour periods in hydroponics..... point and case, flushing has a place and a purpose just off rip without discussing nutrient levels or fade.

No damage? Easy. Dont flush.

Hey there! Flushing is one of those topics where everyone has a different opinion, but science and modern growing practices have given us a very clear guideline. First, look at your trichomes under a loupe (milky/amber is what you want), not just the calendar. If you are 10 to 14 days away from harvest, here is how you handle the final phase depending on your style: 1. The Modern Approach (Flushing is a myth): Scientific studies have shown that flushing for weeks doesn't actually lower the nutrient content inside the buds. If you are growing in soil or organic setups, you don't need to drastically drench your pots with gallons of water. This can cause root rot right at the finish line. Just feed plain, pH-regulated water for the last 5–7 days. This allows the plant to use up its remaining mobile nutrients stored in the fan leaves (they will start to yellow, which is a perfect natural 'fade'). 2. If you are running mineral/hydro nutrients: In pure hydro or coco setups, a 5-to-7-day flush with plain water (or a dedicated flushing agent) is useful to quickly clear out the salts from the root zone so the plant forces itself to use up its internal reserves. The Golden Rules for the finish line: Don't overdo it: Drowning your soil with 3x the pot volume of water usually does more harm than good (high humidity risk = bud rot!). Watch the fade: Let the plant naturally turn autumn-colored. The breakdown of chlorophyll in the final days is what actually makes the smoke smooth, not the absence of nutrients in the soil. Keep your environment dialed in: Keep humidity low (under 45%) during these final days to prevent any mold issues. Good luck with your harvest, let her fade out beautifully! 🍂💨
