Should I start pre - harvest flush?

lets see some of ur grows church.. lets see u back some of this up with your own experiments. o o wait.. i forgot. u were asking how to grow what.. 1 year ago? lol. come the fuck on.. stop believing everything you READ and do the work yourself.. maybe you will get a halfway decent bud out of it .

the best part of this is .. the guys who go around telling others to grow.. are usually the ones asking stupid questions a month before.. asking how to do something that they should have known how to do before even popping a seed.. its never the guy who has the pictures and grows under his belt that says flushing is a myth.. just the dudes growing 1 plant.. and not even getting it to full maturity. because why? because they are to impatient and believe that 1 week longer isnt going to make any difference.. when 1 week.. even 3-4 days longer in flower.. can have DRASTIC EFFECTS on your final product.

THIS IS WHY I DONT TAKE ADVICE FROM PEOPLE WHO ASK FOR ADVICE ON STUPID SHIT 1 YEAR EARLIER.. hasnt had a single post that is helpful to the community as a whole.. and does nothign but troll around putting out misinfo...

DOES THIS LOOK WORSE THEN YOUR BUDS? only 4 days into the flush.. and man does she look like a beast.. and super potent.. stinks up the entire house with a gram.. and ya.. guess what .. it tastes amazing.. just like it smells.. THATS FLUSHING AND DOING THE EXPERIMENTS AND SIDE BY SIDES MYSELF.. thats what it GETS YOU.

So what if one is growing in nutrient pre-loaded soil? Still flush for 2 weeks when the trichs are almost 100% cloudy?

ya .. ive found flushing helps get the plant ready for the dry and cure.. but ya.. i start flushing when i start to see a amber trichome here and there.. once its like mostly cloudy.. a few clear .. and a amber here and there.. thats when i flush.. but ive had a few dudes that i chill with that use super soil tell me they flush tap water.. thats around 7.5-8 ph wise.. and they say that the lockout that it causes does the same as flushing.. since its hard to get the nutes out of super soil,

stupidest statement I have heard in a long time. Just saying.

Oh God, here goes another "flush/no flush" thread......it's like the obits in the newspaper, always someone in there.

I can't understand this hostility.

I'm not claiming to grow better weed than you, so I see no point to posting pics. If you want to flush your weed, fine. It doesn't really make a big difference, or there wouldn't be so much controversy. It would be night and day which method was better.

Your rant about noobs giving advice is the ultimate straw man. My rollitup registration date (2009) alone suggests more than 1 year of experience. I actually learned to grow when I was 15 from the anarchist's cookbook, before there was overgrow.

it doesnt suggest shit bro. ive had 10 diff names since 04. i switch it up.. so i dont get anyone begging me for clones anymore.. 1.. and 2.. your registered date means nothing to me. im not trying to start shit.. im just saying.. the dudes who try to give advice.. and tell people why they shouldnt do something or why they should. are usually the guys who read about it.. not the ones who actually do the side by sides.. to figure out what works better..

im not saying i grow better buds then u .; im just stating that if u grew for 7-10 years.. maybe u would have dont the side by sides yourself instead of relying on someone else to tell you whats the best way or not.. see the weed game is evolving.. and if u dont care about TASTE AND SMELL.. well then ur customers will dry up like a puddle in the desert bro.. its very simple.. if u dont have the best.. u wont make it wen legalization or medical comes to a town near you..

the problem being is.. your newer to growing then i am. and u could of learned alot from me.. instead of arguing about how flushing has no affect because billy bob said so.. lol.. just do the experiment yourself.. and then tell me u cant tell the difference. lol..

dude im not here to have people start shit with me. .. sorry but.. to the dude who started this thread.. wait another week or 2 before flushing.. look at these buds. this was 2 days before i started the flush.. some clear trichs.. and more cloudy.. waiting.. to pull when its almost 100% cloudy.. my customers and myself like our bud DONE.. and as close to ripe as possible.. with as few clear and ambers as possible..

i always love the unflushed bud tastes like chemicals.. just what do people think makes up buds and leaves and stalks and stems? sure as shit ain't plastic, it's, omg, things like nitrogen, calcium, etc, etc.. so sure, all buds taste like chemicals. everything i eat or smoke tastes like some kind of chemicals.. wtf?

I honestly believe that their bud probably does taste better after flushing,, flushing starves the root system of o2 causing the sugars to start to ferment, which is what you want, Just not 2 weeks before they are done, this is when they need nutes the most.
I use to flood my roots and put the plant in the dark for about 7 days before harvest, then I learned about pouring boiling water on the roots. i tried this and got better results in 3 days, you can see the plant change color. The sugars are fermented and as soon as it is dry it is smokeable with no bad taste or burn.
I also don't use bloom nutes and my plants are healthy and green when I harvest, so I don't have a salt build up in my medium.

fermenting? Lol
I have a few different theories....
I prefer words like gas transfer, hydrolysis, and respiration etc. We are not fermenting anything
Edit
Please don't post that long ass stupid thread either

You know the one

I promise I won't hit you with that thread, But, Let's look at the word I used
Fermentation is a metabolic process that converts sugar to acids, gases and/or alcohol. It occurs in yeast and bacteria, but also in oxygen-starved muscle cells, as in the case of lactic acid fermentation
now your's
Hydrolysis usually means the cleavage of chemical bonds by the addition of water. Where a carbohydrate is broken into its component sugar molecules by hydrolysis, this is termed saccharification.
the process of breaking a complex carbohydrate (as starch or cellulose) into its monosaccharide components
I think we both are saying the same thing. Breaking down the sugars and starches,chlorophyll is what makes your smoke good.

Except in curing.. it doesn't work anaerobically
