Isnt it recommended to not flush only if youre using organics? Im asking because I see a lot of debate about this topic, maybe you have some evidence that I can use because Im still flushing my plants even with organics (but 1 week or less instead of 10-12 days) but I know that flushing and not giving nutes might lead to smaller buds but Im afraid that not flushing will leave a bad taste. When I was using synthetic or not fully organic nutrients I could swear that they were more bitter when I missed the time for flushing properly. Im confused.Full plant pics will help, looks like it could be close.
Also dont flush, just reduce feed amount and feed til harvest.
It depends, if you want more of a cerebral sativa high people harvest around 10% amber and mostly cloudy. People who want a more balanced high might wait until 30% amber, also depending on the strain your trichomes might need more time than just 10% amber to turn milky but it doesnt seem to be the case with yours, little ambar but mostly cloudy trichomes, I dont see many clear ones. Honestly? I harvested weed at that point many times, but with some strains I have to wait more because there's many clear trichomes. Its up to you, if you want sativa cerebral high its ready or almost ready, if you want a balanced high let it go for more amber and if you want more of a indica couch lock effect go for 30-50% amber. This is because THC degrades into CBN inside the amber trichomes, which has similar effects to CBD. Also I agree, full pictures would help but I see that most trichomes are ready anyway, you will always have some clear ones.3 strains

Exactly 7 weeks since flipped.
Was hoping to flush for a week or 2
First time put scope on it...
What ya think ?
Flushing does nothing for finishing a plant organics or synthetic, plant knows no difference between the 2.Isnt it recommended to not flush only if youre using organics?

I know that you cant flush nutrients out of a plant, but if the substrate has nutrients the plant will keep taking them, thats the point of flushing, stoping the plant from taking more nutrients from the soil, and salts as you said. But again, maybe Im missing something. One of the tastier and smoother weeds that I had was flushed for 1 week and the leaves started turning yellow right when the trichomes ripened. I get it, its risky to start flushing too soon, if the plant starts taking nutes from the leaves and its not ready yet, its not good, but other than that Im not sure about not flushing.Flushing does nothing for finishing a plant organics or synthetic, plant knows no difference between the 2.
Flushing is for salt buildup, lockout, or ph issues, and toilets.
You cant flush nutrients out of a plant thats why flushing for harvest is not needed at all.

All i know is i dont flush. Im not one for a debate on it either lolI know that you cant flush nutrients out of a plant, but if the substrate has nutrients the plant will keep taking them, thats the point of flushing, stoping the plant from taking more nutrients from the soil, and salts as you said.

Aww okay, so I guess its still not clear, its just a matter of what people think they work for them right? I was hoping for maybe a study that I missed or something.All i know is i dont flush. Im not one for a debate on it either lol
Its gone on too long imo and just needs to be forgotten lol.
Not flushing will also work for those that do flush. All you’re doing is removing nutrients from the soil. Those nutrients still exist in the leaves, which is where it’ll just pull from next (if it hasn’t already started - that’s why folks say just use straight water - since you’re just kind of wasting nutrients at that point).Aww okay, so I guess its still not clear, its just a matter of what people think they work for them right?

Unless your plant is showing signs of toxicity or deficiency, there’s zero reason to flush.
All these outdoor growers - you think they’re flushing the earth? That right there should tell you all you need to know.

I just swapped reservoirs, strait h2o as of 8am 2morro
I'll pull at 20% amber ... somay be 1 -2 week strain specificRight on. And that makes sense! I’m nearing the end of my grow - I just did a final low dose feeding and will be using water only here on out in my reservoirs as well (though I’m within a few days to a week from chopping, so not quite as long as you’re going with straight water)
Im sure there is a study somewhere, im not the guy to find it though.Aww okay, so I guess its still not clear, its just a matter of what people think they work for them right? I was hoping for maybe a study that I missed or something.
