scrOG closet grow

Friggin Scrumdidilyumptious! Those are some A+ lookin' buds there! Pretty much sold me on a 250 HPS for my closet. 400 seems like overkill and is begging for heat issues... Hopefully I can get one relatively cheap. My local Hydro store said they would match prices with any place that has a brick & mortar building. I'm guessing that means if they have a building they run a business from, instead of just an online store. In which case, HTG would be considered a go and I can match their 250 price without the shipping & have a warrantee with a local shop :)

Does HTG list in-store prices on their site? I know my local shop has on-line-only prices to compete with other web shops but if you go into the store, everything's a couple dollars more.
 
I looked on HTG's site and I don't see any in-store prices, but they do give locations & URL's for all of their retail stores. dunno if that helps but.....

As far as flushing Nasty:
from what I have gathered people flush to get the taste from the nutrients out of the bud. I personally didn't bother flushing my last grow because I was using organic soil & Bio-Bizz nutes; Bud tasted fine to me, no complaints. However, if you are using something other than organic (advanced nutrients etc.) than it would probably be beneficial to flush. If I recall correctly, there is also something along the lines like the plant uses up all it's nutes and juices in the soil & supposedly gets the most out of the plant if you flush and use straight up water for the last week or two. I'm sticking to organic soil and nutes (with the exception of Advanced Nutes "Big Bud" durring flowering) that way I don't have to bother with flushing and that kind of thing. Don't quote me on any of this though, this came from memory. I find that it will always behoove you to do a lil bit of background research of your own as well.

Here's to frosty Nugs!

Late but subscribed. Scrog looks great even though you flipped a little late, your yield won't suffer much. If your package says 8-9 weeks I would wait until end of week 7 to start flushing. Then you can take them anywhere from 8-9 weeks and they should be perfect. Surprisingly 14 days of 0 nutes did way less damage to my plants then expected, hardly lost any fans maybe 10%. If you know you like a up high I'd take them at 8 weeks, If you prefer the stronger couchlock stone take them 9 weeks or beyond. But yeah a 1 week flush is all that is necessary. Keep up the good work.
