Thats so cool to hear from someone on the level you're on. I redid the res today to full bloom nutes for the next 4 weeks or so. Then flush. I'm going to use ph'd water and whatever else i need to use during flush.

Just pH water in a flush. You're cleaning it out, so just water.

Just think!!! I had 1 of these plants propped up with a toothpick because it was almost dead. I can't believe they were this small.

Just slowly taper the nutes back over the last 2 weeks so that your down to 100ppm and then plain water for the last few days. You dont need to starve the plants and cripple yield for clean weed. You just need to make sure that you dont OVER feed them and that they arent saturated with nutes by harvest from being fed 1200ppm in flower.

So this is how im going to do the last 5 weeks. I maxed out feeding. And from here on out i am only going to add ph'd water to my res. That way i am bringing the feeding down every week. Then. On eighth week i will change the res to nothing but ph'd water to flush.

I had to do a double take to see if there were even plants there.

Keep the water pH'ed even with no nutes.

Lmao. Yes! That is at the very beginning of this thread. I had the nutes all messed up. And i wasn't feeding them any nutes after they sprouted in the rockwool cubes. I had them under the dome until they sprouted. Then the plant with toothpicks (Bruce Banner)(NASC freebies) stem turned white and was laying over the rockwool. So i propped him up. Lmfao. And here we are today. He is shorter but still has some buds.

No. Let the plants tell you what they want. If they look healthy, no deficiencies, the ppm/pH are at equilibrium, then there is no reason to add more. The ONLY exception to this is for me, during a 10-11 week strain i usually add
a little more phosphorus and more potassium and a bunch of sulfur during weeks 7-9, and then i start to taper down the nutes for weeks 9-11 until harvest. One of my best harvests, with the smoothest, tastiest weed ive grown, only went as high as 650ppm during peak flowering and it was sill potent af. Less is more. Besides, adding more food than they need not only saturates the plant tissues but it also slows growth/bud development. Any time the plants have an issue with anything, the first thing they do is slow their roll. So essentially, by adding more nutes in an attempt to grow better weed, you can actually reduce the overall quality and quantity of your harvest.

Man, you got some nice looking buds started and the resin glands are certainly putting out. Should be some nice smoke. I just had bruce banner actually and i really enjoyed how it turned out in the press.

And this is why you get the big bucks. Good advice. Thank you. I added some kool bloom to the res. That's a phosphorus potassium and sulfur product i believe. Hopefully they will be fine since i put it in a little early.
