Flushing In Dwc

[40oz2fr33dom]

so I haven't documented this grow b/c I ended up accidentally deleting all of my photos. But I do want to document the flushing process.

First off, here is some copy & paste off of another thread here in thcfarmer. I noticed no one has posted using cyco notes an any online thread in a number of years

View attachment 656520 First grow using cyco this round. I've had 4 finished grows. First grow w/ 3 part GH. 2nd grow w/ floranova. 3rd & 4th grows w/ a combination of the two with dyna gro bloom 1 part in the mix as well. I always used liquid kool bloom, floralicious+,as well as cal mag+ & superthrive. Every grow I would run 7-10 days of the bases (whether in veg or bloom) with cal mag and super thrive then 3-4 days with the LKB, flora+, cal mag and super thrive. I used H&G root excelurator for a grow or two and then switched to great white shark for a couple grows. Not sure of a difference between the two. But I learned it's almost useless in dwc and hygrozymes
I planned on a full grow journal but I regrettably deleted all of my pix from my phone.
Here are a couple pix of the strain kryptonite from clone (NOT kryptonite og) from today in the last days of flower.
I've been "kinda" experimenting with flushing. Long weird story on my flush this round. All I've ever grown with is LEDs in DWC. This particular one is grown with bout 700watts of LEDs. 400 watts of that are my DIY LEDS. This is 9 weeks and 6 days of flowering. Started flopping all over the place a few weeks ago. Not bad for my make shift/ghetto grow room I quite literally slapped together lol

I used everything in the cyco lineup except the cyco xl. I also used everything @ 1.5x whatever the schedule was imprinted on the inside of the pro platinum kit as far as gal(US) wise.
5 days before Xmas, I flushed with kleanse for 3 days, replaced with plain ph'd RO water for two days. The day after Xmas I replaced with mix @ reg strength according to inside of prokit box for three days. Lastly, I changed res with half assed ph'd RO water. Half assed meaning I put 7 drops of ph down in about 2.5 gals stirred it, said f**k it, and called it good. I've kept it like that till the present

Anyway I was gonna say hygrozymes are better for dwc and I was gifted supa sticky and kleanse from a local hydro store and I heard great things about ryzofuel so that's why I switched to cyco. I don't have a "feed" and "water" schedule anymore. I mix up the solution and change it once every 10-14 days. A lot simpler for me. Also the ryzofuel is phenomenal

If you notice some of the leaf tips look really burned and damaged. This was due to a nute lock out for a period of 3 days before I caught on to it. That's the only issue that I've had with cyco. You have to mix silica 1st then your "b" then your "a" & finally you can mix the remaining nutes in any order that you want.
I picked up how to mix up the nutes off of another post on another grow site. Glad I did

I used to go by 40z2fr33dom but I forgot my pw so I had to make a new acct. I have one grow posted on here already

Looks like you did well 40 oz! I used the cyco full line minus rizofuel and was stoked with results, my veg was happy the whole time and was impressed who clean my rez was. The smell and flavor beat my table I ran with h&g using big bud and overdrive but didn't get the weight I did with the advanced boosters but who knows that could have been me lol. Killer job on your grow man

I think what really made the plant come alive in flower, besides the nutes of corwas I literally trimmed off every single fan leaf on day 2 or 3 (can't remember since I lost my pix) of flower and again on day 21. Made the lady look awful and naked as shit but I swear by it. Don't be discouraged because you won't be disappointed. It's the 1st time I've ever done it. I know I'll do it for every grow from now on. I'm not afraid to experiment with my ladies. I research the shit out of anything before I try it to gain fore knowledge as to what I'm trying to achieve and how to logically go about it.

Next on my list is a pure dark schedule of 4 days with ice water which I'll post on another thread

I have used ice water to flush to bring out more color on purple strains the last 7 days but haven't completely defoliated to aggressively just bigger leaves blocking bud sites. I'll be watching your progress because this is one Im curious about. There's a grower on Instagram doing a side by side on this right now too

View attachment 656545 Since u kinda have experience, do u leave the ice in the water or do u mix water with ice to get freezing water and then strain out the ice? That's the only clarity I need.
I have a little "purpling" going on a few of the tops from being in front of the ac unit.

Just rolled over into the new year. Happy new year and may everyone find prosperity wherever and however they journey this year!

I have a 25 gal rez and I put a couple 2 liter frozen bottles of water to get my water temps real low and water with run off but if you put some ice cubes on your soil or coco it wont hurt either.

I do dwc. But I know to strain out the ice. Thx @fstate599
