Feeding the one plant until the end of the week and then gonna flush her for a week. Other two plants still have like 2-3 weeks left. Got my seprate veg area setup so I will be starting a new grow tomorrow. Gonna start a new thread for that one.

Don’t flush. Counterproductive. Looking good.

What do you mean? Aren't you supposed to flush out all the buildup from nutes and what not?

In soil there is no need to flush. It’s really an old wives tale. Think about it, why would you take out the most essential nutrients for the most important part of flower? rolling a ton of water through the root zone washes any food that left out. Throughout your grow you use a specific nute regimen, that is imparting all of these flavors the entire grow. Some water the last few weeks isn’t going to change the already formed flavor profile. Alls it does is stresses the shit out of your plants in a bunch of ways. Late stressing can be good, as long as it’s a chosen method for a desired outcome. Flushing just confuses the plant and starves it. In soil, unless you are waaaaaaaaaay overdosing, leave well enough alone homie.

I was just doing what everyone had always told me. Though after doing some research, it seems it might just be what I call "bro science." There's a lot of that when it comes to cultivating cannabis. Here's a link to just one of many articles I read about the topic.

Rx Green’s research study on cannabis flushing explores the truth behind this urban myth in growing nutrients.

Anyhow, starting week six here.

Week 8. Girl on the left is getting the axe tomorrow. Other two have about a week or two left. Surprisingly the runt/stressed gal on the right looks like its producing the most potent buds. Just germinated 3 northern light and a rain chip. Will be planting them tomorrow. Overall very happy with my outcome. Had I had more space it would have been perfect. Tents gonna be rocking next run. Not bad for a newb imo. Happy!
