I dont think placebo played much part in my results.
-My crops burned and smoked great for about 17 years straight while I did 2 weeks plain water at the end.
-kept reading on here how flushing was pointless so I tried 3 crops in a row tapering back nutrients at the end, but kept feeding light balanced feeds to the end, pot had burn characteristic problems. Burned out easily in a joint and ashes were dark grey/black. Flavor was ruined halfway through a joint. For numerous strains 3 crops back to back.
-went back to water only finishes and smoke quality improved dramatically again.
Some would say I'm a chronic overfeeder and that explains my need to flush, but I doubt that. I hardly ever go over 1.3ec.
And.. Flushing doesn't remove anything from the plant, it cant, it just prevents it from getting there in the first place.
Try reading the damned study instead of looking to immediately discredit the author.
We don’t smoke tomatoes but we eat them. Zero health issues. Your comparison is kind of irrelevant. Again please name any crop husbanded by man that heads to harvest starved? Please.
Please flush away if you’re so inclined.
Im not sure where you are but if your water leaves a black deposit in the ash you seriously need to switch to bottled water. a background in agriculture is great but unless that is in the tobacco industry its apples and oranges because few other plants in agriculture are dried and smoked that makes it completely different and as inhaling is about the fastest way to get anything into the body short of injecting it behooves us to make sure its as clean as possible.I don’t. I grew up in agriculture. I always ask people to name another crop that’s starved before it’s harvested.
Black ash? You don’t dry properly. Period. It’s retained moisture. Not unused nutrients. Plants use it as they take it up.
So the answer is no I take it?Does weed get fertilized by humans in the wild? Do you harvest a lot of wild weed? If so let me know how it smokes.
Whatever. 3 crops out of hundreds doesnt agree with that logic. I'm leaning towards correlation here.But the plants take up very little nutes the last two weeks IMO. For me maybe .8ec 4 more times. Maybe only 2-3 times and the last water only. Why would the little bit at the end make so much difference?
it doesn’t. We either fed right or over fed. That’s the only reason for any difference. The plant is an accumulator but not so much at the end.
Yeah, adequate nutrition isn't he same thing. Not enough potassium or magnesium in a grow will lead to a poor burn too.
This is saying exactly the opposite of flushers . White ash is produced by mineral rich soil and black ash by mineral depleted soil. Why do flushers say nutes cause black ash?

There are peer reviewed studies because when an individual conducts a test they always see the results they want to see.
in fact in a proper medical study the scientist conducting the test may not participate or even know which patients have the placebo as the tester will unwittingly alter the test results.

because there are a lot of misconceptions in this industry and they are harder to kill than hitler. these myths and such are along the same lines as the comment "its ok my friends an electrician" people who have worked in a shop will get that lolThis is saying exactly the opposite of flushers .

It's tue... initially I saw the results i wanted to see and fooled myself into thinking they burned ok.
That's not what it's saying at all.. Holy shit guys, ths saying nutritionally deprived plants burn poorly. Try leaving out magnesium and potassium and see how your wedding burns. NOTHING to do with how it's finished.
When do tobacco farmers apply the last dose of fertilizer before harvest?
good question there. I will have to investigate when.
Question. When you tried pbp grow all through did you stop 2 weeks before the end. Cause that was when you kept showing pics of your super white ash joints all the time.
Whatever. 3 crops out of hundreds doesnt agree with that logic. I'm leaning towards correlation here.
And you know what? I'm gonna "flush" my plants for 3-5 days at the end of this rockwool run, AND I stripped every damn leaf off them TWICE so far in flower.
Don't worry, nobody but me will have to suffer through my "bro-stash"
because the forums and guides are full of mis-information and conjecture. And there are no yes or no answers to these kinds of questions. It depends on many variables is always the answer to all these arguments.
That's exactly what it's says don't try to pull a fast one. It says less minerals produce black ash. You said not flushing produces black ash. Those contradict each other and your anecdotal evidence is just that. I'm still trying to figure out who invented flushing because nature didn't.It's tue... initially I saw the results i wanted to see and fooled myself into thinking they burned ok.
That's not what it's saying at all.. Holy shit guys, this is saying nutritionally deprived plants burn poorly. Try leaving out magnesium and potassium and see how your weed burns. NOTHING to do with how it's finished.

I did 2 crops with no flush and 1 with using pbp. The ones with no flush required blue horse blanket zig zags to burn properly and white. And I only had 1 strain that burned clean no matter what I did to it... RIP Platinum cookies
