Default Flushing Question + REP
A quick question about flushing, when you flush the leaves will turn yellow and this is normal right? and does flushing also help the buds grow bigger and more potent?

Yes the leaves turning yellow is normal, but flushing doesn't really enhance bud growth. The idea is to get all that nasty-tasting fertilizer out of your herb.

you can use some non-sulfurized mollasses to add a lil carbs to your flush. that will add some swell and sweetness to your buds

I was molasses from the time i start 12/12 all the way up until the last few days when i stop watering completely. Just make sure it is non-sulfurized grandma's brand works the best IMO.

Flushing doesn't do anything except remove excess fertilizer.

the yellowing late in flower is a normal part of the plant's life cycle. its dying and has nothing to do with flushing.

you also should know that a 72 dark period right before harvest can have the same effect as a flush by making the plant use up the nutrients left in the plant because with no light the plant make glucose so whats left gets used make sense?
