    Question about flushing with additives

    I'm using the heavy 16 line of grow nutes and will start flushing in a few days. I'm growing firehouse og. My question is can I combine my carbs (prime and humbolt honey) with my clearing solution? Or should I flush till runoff is clear and then give a final dose of carbs?
