Default flushing
when you guys use orgainc nutrients, do u guys still flush, even though the salts are not as harsh as a synthetic ferts.

Doesnt matter organic or not if you have nute lockup for whatever reason flushing is a must and faster if you use flushing agents.Even if there is no prob still a good idea to flush every once in a while to prevent any type of probs.

i am doing a soil grow, and i heard you should flush for the last 2 weeks. im just debating whether or not to fertilize again and what some of the effects may be if i dont flush the nutes. i would fertilize with bone meal. my plant actually is a hermie that is almost done , but i think stess is extending the flowering period, the buds are starting to swell but still not to its full potential i will harvest the latest in 9 days and i want full buds.
any advise is appreciated

If your going total organic no need to flush in my book. Just cut back on the N and increase the P. That should work. Now if a person was using human feces or something like that it probably wouldnt hurt to flush. It could taste purty *hitty so to speak.

You need to flush nutes at the end to get rid of nutes in the soil. You need to flush two week before harvest. If you still have heavy nutes at harvest your bud won't taste good or smoke right.

the bud wont be the highest quality due to the fact that it has been pollinated. i think the buds may be sparse because i stopped using P so early the plant is a 9 week strain but it is getting close to 11. i thought it was getting close to being ready so i started to flush too early maybe. anyways 9 more days till harvest and i was possibly thinkng some bone meal may help the final swell. the high isnt that great and the buds kind of sparse so late in its flowering period i think it may need more energy.
i apppreciate all the help

Just give it a good dose of molasses then a full flush 3 days before harvest at least.

you might be able to. I do a clean flush two weeks out an pure water after that. I did the same as you. I added nutes to half and let the other half alone. Big dif in taste. the nute side was harsh and gave me a sore throat.
I would say don't add nutes. The molasses your choice don't think it would hurt.
