Are you eating the soil? Because that's the only thing you're going to clean up by Flushing

Im using co co not soil so be hard to eat wat isnt there. Go play on another thread if ya got nowt useful to say.[/QUOTE]

Is it not useful to let you know that nutrients don't leave the buds? That flushing is a waste of time and may affect your yield?

    I believe that the molasses and the sugar it contains targets the ever present mycelium that connects to the roots of the plants. That is why the molasses is diluted by water.

    This should kick the mycelium into overdrive and provide more goodies for the plants.

      When you add anything to soil – it will not target one type of organism over another. It simply spreads out in the soil, and if an organism is present that can use the nutrient – it does so. Fungi and bacteria will both make use of sugars.

      I don’t see any logical connection between your idea of feeding the fungi and a reason for dilution?? It is diluted in order to make it seem like you are feeding a bigger area of soil.

      Yes the fungi and bacteria and other organisms will be ‘kicked’ into over drive. But once the sugar is used up – the same microbes populations will crash. I don’t see that as being particularly good for the soil.

      As far as “provide more goodies for the plants”, the mycorrhizal fungi usually get sugars from plants – not the otehr way around. Granted more fungi, might mean more nutrients delivered to plants – but again this is a short term thing which the sugar lasts.

So you use sugar to turbo the soil, the drop a few days later causes the plant to shock and flower harder if its don`t just up and die, adding aspirin increases the chance of it dying

Some strains are nice to hack down all fresh other strains I like more dead, also doing 50/50 when you have a room of clones all the same gives you a mix of more ripe buds and less ripe buds, some people like that older bud other people like the less ripe stuff

It`s good to know ways you can shift the colour and smells of your plants in a short time makes you able to vairey how it will taste and the high it`ll give you, also can shorten or lengthen the drying/curing process depending on what methods of finishing you use

most have a time and place where they`ll suit better

The post said natural extracts and flavouring not mountain dew and grape kool aide

We tried everything we could think of. No sugar sweetened nothing added a noticeable or wanted flavor. Grape crush and koolaid didn't add color. No dyes carried up into buds. Budswell and other guano teas add a earthy hashy back flavor. Fish emulsion left a seafood flavor to OG lemon making it smell and taste like ceviche.

Because im using csnna nutes abd i dintwsnt my green to taste lyk shit. Tgst good enough for ya[/QUOTE]
Switch to Bio Canna. Truly organic and more flavores the canna coco. Use the boost at 16 ml a gallon twice a week from week 2 to 7 and you'll have more resin and the most nugged out buds you've ever grown. Also no rinse. Just do water last week. No over watering to push nutes out of your plant. At week 6, under heavy nutes you can pull a bud and dry in the sun the same day and it smokes clean and smooth with white ash...

Ive bin thinking about turning back to soil. But i may consider trying using coco again with a organic nutrients. Ive only ever done 1 or 2 plants at a time but this time i have 4. Ive always grown soil and bio bizz nutes. Only ever used cfl aswell. Ive gone from that to using 600w metal halide(veg) and hps bud bulb. Aswell as moving from soil to coco and using canna coco (chem) nutrients. Its my 1st timevgrowing this strain(pineapple gum) aswell as my 1st time using scrog technique. I realise i mite not get the same flavour as soil. This is why i started to ask myself is there anything i can do to enhance flavour and taste.

Look i have limited amout of space and funds and i live in uk. So sorry if I cant have a massive hydro grow we have to be more discreet than you Americans. Ask for opinions on mollases and flavouring. And people goin on telling me people laffing at me for growing in pots. Dont give a fuck if they are. Im doin the best with wat ive got and aspire to be better. Thats why i joined this forum to learn to be best i can be with wat ive got. Not to be told im wasting my time or told I need to use hydro. Half people on here just give it the biggen. Ive only spoke to a few that have helped me with my theorys instead of slating them.
Yer to your perception hydro mite be better. But im using coco atm. So unless u have advise which i can actualy use wer im at feel free to comment. If ya just gunna twist about something dont bother
