When do you use Flora Kleen?

I have just begun flush and would rather learn from someones experience and testimony than following the label.

What kinds of results have you had with this product?

Use it when you are ready to rinse out all the nutes. At the end of the grow.

Dirtyboy,

How many days of rinse at the end of your grow do you do?

__________________

Ya know i have grown about 6 grows now. I have not been very good about that. I have just fed them water for 1 week or so before harvesting and then used something like that to rinse my soil out a few days before harvest.

got it. That is what the instructions say for the most part. To use it a couple days before harvest. No mention of straight water flushing prior either. I wonder if I need to do the water flush at all. I guess that would depend on what I want my smoke to taste like (I want the BEST) and how long I cure.

Anyone use Flora kleen without a water flush?
(anyone that likes really good and strong smoke?)

I'd say its better to use Florakleen after flushing prior with regular ph'd water. That way the water will 'rinse' out all the nute/salt build up and then the florakleen will just help remove the leftovers.

Either way you do it, youll be fine as long as you flush.

Sdgoonie,

Thanks! I think that will be the plan. Also, I was informed that I do not need to PH the RO water I'm flushing. The PH balance is so the plant can uptake the maximum amount of the nutes. At certain PH levels all elements of the nutrients become more available to the plant. At high and low PH levels some nutes get locked out and are not able to be absorbed. Now that I am now using nutes in my system, there is no need to balance for elemental uptake, it's just water.

I asked my buddy the same question just a week ago and that answer I received confirmed what I was thinking. Makes sense to me.

You still want to feed water only, a week or so before beginning the final flush with the flora kleen. The flushing agents are great for removing nutes from the soil, but not out of the plant. You want to give your plant a week or two of straight ph'd water to use up alot of nutes left inside the plant. It greatly improves taste. I harvested my last plant without doing so and only Using Clearex at the last few days before harvest. I didnt even like smoking the shit, burnt the back of your throat and tasted like shit.
