I have yet to meet an adherent of flushing that:
1) knows the most basic facts about solution chemistry and how that interacts with plant nutrient uptake mechanisms
2) can point to the cell structure that supposedly 'stores' nutrients to that need to be flushed
3) can explain what happens to the supposedly flushed nutrients. Show me how they are excreted.
They just 'know' that it will make your weed taste bad if you don't flush. With de-ionized coconut water. In the dark phase of the moon. Funny how they never seem to mind the taste of my unflushed weed. I remember, back in the 80's when I was still commercial, a customer commenting about how he hated the 'chemical taste' of hydro weed in comparison to mine. He didn't know, and I didn't bother to inform him, that I was a hydro grower. He paid $2400/lb in 1982, multiple times, and loved it, as his customers loved it.
If you can't taste it in a blind test, it ain't real, as my customer demonstrated. I have literally dozens of data points indicating that people can't detect an unflushed plant from inspection and smoking. So why bother? I feed up to the end.
Excuse me, I have to go feed the plants I'm going to harvest next week. :)
