Thanks guys. Had a tough battle with heat and then cold evenings. Also kept kicking breaker. Finally got it to where it needs to be. I like to flush the last 3 weeks. I try to anyway. One fell over and broke so I had to chop it. No cure and it still tastes and smells amazing. I am now a fan of Kush lol

I actually did a test a few years back on Lemon Haze. Flushed like I usually do at the last 3 weeks and 3 with no flush to see if I was wasting my time. There 3 that had no flush tasted WAY different. Had a bad taste that never diminished. Even after 45 days in cure jar. The ones I did flush tasted exactly what you would think( lemon heads) lol.

When the plants needs nutrients most?, it's reckless lunacy.

Plants look good. I disagree with a three week flush.

placebo effect
a beneficial effect, produced by a placebo drug or treatment, that cannot be attributed to the properties of the placebo itself, and must therefore be due to the patient's belief in that treatment.

Nice plants man :)

3 week flush is a long time.. I agree with flushing, here’s why;

Peeps say your starving the plant when it’s packing on most of its weight etc..

Thing is it will eat itself, like we do when we have less calories coming in and burning off more. Our bodies consume protein/fat etc.

The plant will use its own resources left in its leaves to continue flowering. So it’s not actually ‘starving’ per say.

However. I do see that the timing is critical. No food for too long a period will deminish harvest. This is why most say don’t flush, getting that timing wrong is a fine line.


It’s the buds we’re after.. not the leaves. As long as the plant has those nutrients (which it does) it will continue to mature.

I’d personal flush 1-2 weeks before if using synthetic nutes. Organic? Well probably get away with no flushing, like nature :)

Just my observation..

Very good Intel. Thanks brother. This is why I love this site. I just started in 2010 growing indoors and using fertilizer. Started off with dyno-grow for the first 2 years. Now I use fox farm

How do you like fox farms Nutrients as I'm a first time grower and been using it as well! I'm 37 days into flower and my buds smell and seem like their gonna be amazing but not sure as I'm a first time grower again!
