soil if soil grown contain the nutrients to last weeks no need to feed really, its my opinion about soil ,In hydro and such an 0.5 ec would do . but we build our houses diffrent and gardens to just have fun :)

The last weeks of a plants life is when bulk gets put into the flowers. Why would you want to stress your plant out by not feeding it during this time? Doing so will effect final yield and potency.

I've been feeding the plant plenty, it can go a week with water only. Prob won't even make a difference.
I have multiple plants. I will test your claims

Well I do have children 8)

But this is about teaching new growers, spreading common sense and killing stupid myths

I for one don't care what folks do in their gardens, if ya want to flush, then flush but don't go around perpetuating the freakin myth that without a flush you're smokin nutes, it's total bull and nonsense.

Rather than arguing about flushing more time should be spent teachin proper cures

I couldn't agree with you more.

Okay,
This was not a post about advanced being a rip off.
They are its 98% water and way overpriced. I know how to read but I'm using the line so don't sit there and state the obvious. It's very annoying. More annoying then you seeing someone using AN

I'm not trying to pull anything out of the plants? Those of you must not understand what I'm saying.
Plants store there food, there is no reason to feed a plant the day you are chopping it down. It will never get used. There is food stored in the plants and in the soil.
The idea here is that by feeding my plant only water the last week, it will use up some of the food it has stored. My leaves are green so my plants aren't hungry, they are quite healthy actually and loaded up on food.
By feeding only water it allows the plant to use that food it already has stored in it. My water won't wash anything out of the leaves, you are right. But the plant will use the food if I'm not feeding it.

Logic reasoning again;

The plant is taking what you call "stored" nutrition from point A and using it at point B...This being leaves to bud and if done long enough you believe that it even removes from the sugar and bud leaves. Correct?

The failure in your reasoning;

Truth is. The plant, not getting "normal" nutrient up-take. Will begin to "feed off it's self" to continue to have what it needs..... The nutrients (many non-mobile) being shifted inside the plant are going from area's that you don't smoke to area's that you do smoke! So then, the plant is still maintaining nutrient use levels AT the place you think your "reducing" it for better smoke. .The plant will also read this as unexpected stress and go into "gotta finish" stress mode....
So please explain to me just how you've "improved" anything?
OR
Are we smoking the leaves and throwing the buds out because they, by your logic, will "taste better".....

RM3 "said" this earlier and you didn't "get it"- More understandable my way?

BTW, your method increases plant stress and plant stress increases chances of bisexuality (Herming)! Go figure?

Just wanted to know what's the ppm of your soil when close to harvest if you don't mine.

I'm organic, water only soils I build......so, none available...BTW,,,I recharge and reuse my soils!

PPM is for metering water contents/contaminates. Not soil nutrient concentrations. I would have to send it out for a soil analysis and it would be reported as nutrient ratio by volume (%).

First off I'll say it does work ,, ok?

As for "made for marijuana" ???

That's marketing dept. HYPE!

AN is a shameful example of marketing at it's "worst"..... Way too many bottles of watered down nutrients and supplements that sometimes overlap so you didn't really need them anyway! One sided testing done by NOT "independent" testing! They also have a terrible habit of making abso - fucking - lutely overblown claims of results.....

The finishing "Flushing" agent is useless! (cept ta fill the company pockets)

You say better then MG,,,,,in a way. Bet anyone with the know how can do just as well with MG!

But, yeah, it works to grow plants, any house plants!

Lmfao. Was just joking. Forgot about this. Shit I have grow with just mg
