funny, SIR GANJA, claims there are HEAVY METALS in the plant and by flushing, you make the plant "use up" what's stored in the leaves.

, If it 'USES' these heavy metals up, then those are really "minerals" and the plant needs them if it"used them Up"

see the problem with flushing theories is just that,there theories of some internet troll.

ROFLMAO @ heavy metals.. yes, cannabis plants are suicidal, and love to use phytoremediation to force uptake of arsenic, lead, and mercury. The genius behind that one sounds like bmeat.

Ive looked for people whove done it and i cant find any. I thought i found pics of a guy doing it but he was just watering from the bottom up by dunking the whole container in water filled buckets. From what ive read, give them water three days prior to chop and the last two are in darkness. Good luck and pm me with the details if you get the chance. Id love to hear how it went.

If your going to feed till chop do it at really low ppm, then three days before you cut them give em water. The next day kill the lights, and the next day pull out the hand saw. I had some unflushed bud from a guy that works at the grow store a while back and it was sooo harsh. He kinda blushed and said ya, it coulda used a better flush...it was good but harsh.

No worries, i have insomnia. Depends what soil your using and how much your leaching, what the ppm of your runoffs been, all that stuff. The later in life the plant is the less it needs for nutes anyway. Your just wasting high ppm feedings. 300 ish at the end and id run 7-10 days of just watering, probly 10.

stupid fucks. with no taste buds, or your plants are very pale green and yellow. no nuts in them. I hit weed that a rookie grew could taste the chemical was garbage ! . I had a talk with him . next time, feed them ph plain water for at least 5 days, and ok tasting, but for super clean 10 days ph tap water up too 14 days ! then your talking so high quality medical quality, those dispencarys. will be call you day and night after they send it out to get it tested, yes they test weed for chemicals! so no flush no selling it to those guys, FLUSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH YOURRRRRRRR SHITTTTTTTTTTTT !!!!! or rune a great plant.

I tested this theory with my last grow. Some I purposely did not flush, and fed nutes right up until 3 days before I chopped. I did a nice dry (about a week) then jarred for 2 weeks. The stuff I did not flush, crackled popped and almost sparked every time I took a puff, plus it tasted really chemically with a black ash left. The flushed stuff was fine. not harsh, tasted more of the weed, white ash. After doing my own experiment, I am a firm believer in a good flush. In fact, my current grow just finished week 7. I flushed everything at the beginning of the week, and some strains will go 9 weeks (3 week flush) mighty be a bit overkill, but Oh well.

We all know they say you should flush before harvest or you will get inferior bud that smokes harsh and tastes like crap chemicals. Well I only flushed 3 days before harvest because I was forced to. I found out one of my girls hermied, so rather than do a 2 week flush and risk smoking big fat seeds, i only flushed 3 days before harvest,

My plants hung to dry for 3-4 days, and after a 1 week cure i am hitting stuff off he pipe that tastes fine and is not "harsh" to me at all. The leftover ash is white too. The only problem I find is occasional crackling from the immature seeds in my bud, or it could just be the moisture leftover since my cure is not quite done, but it's no big deal the stuff gets me high like a kite and doesn't make me cough or feel bad in the throat, so I think flushing is a myth tbh and i wont be doing it in the future, its all about the dry and cure.

you will find out if it is not a myth, after you are visiting the hospital in 10-20 years with throat, chest and lung problems in 20 years and they ask you...... "have you ever been in contact with chemicals" to which you will reply "no, why" !
"just wondered"... asked the doctor !

as long as someone cleans it up,I'm all good. But I guarantee it will be from the damn cheeseburgers and not from weed that I grow and smoke(unflushed)
