You flush with plain water to leach out any salt build ups,helps with flavor and burn.

I know why you flush. Two weeks in a hydro system seems like a lot. IMHO

what is IMHO? i guess ill flush until the leaves are yellow the sooner the better

You have a great bucket system! Its very similar to mine. I was at 12 buckets and 1800 watts , single strain scrog, averaged 50 oz per run.

I am going to do 2days with the final flush solution then the rest with plain water

ok ty im new to this lol

 

[jackwhite]

what do you do when you flush and how long does it take you?

 

[EastCoastGuy]

what do you do when you flush and how long does it take you?

I flush for three days using General Hydro flusing solution. Then harvest, hang for three days, trim, sweat one night, sometimes net dry a day, but usually right into jars. Cure it as long as you can. Doesn't last long around here

 

[jackwhite]

what do you mean by sweat? also only 3 days? do you leaves yellow out that quickly? it just seems like a fast dry. everything im reading says 7-10 days anything quicker is a fast dry. also ifyou dont mind take a look at my leaves. im thinking mag defienciency not sure any input will be appreciated!

damn thats awesome! My friend says I have atleast a lbs or maybe a little more but ill believe it when I see it! its my first grow. i have another of the same sysytem but currently only running 1. im taking down my tent and setting up my basement with mylarand habging up my lights. using a tent is cool but a pain in the ass to get in there and do any kind of trimming when the plants are bushy etc. also controlling humidity, temp, and keeping air flow will be a lot more easier with an open room

So much info out there, you will learn what works for you. Sweating is just bagging it up together, you can use an unscented trash bag. It pulls moisture out of the buds. Seal em up overnight and the next morning they will be a wet gooey mass of wonderfulness. As far as your leaves go, at this stage of the game forget em, watch your buds

Depending on the time of year here, the atmosphere can be very dry. Other factors such as density can slow drying down. They are ready when they are ready. Everyones different , so many variables.
