Flushing and I'm not talking about the toilet lol!

Hi Awesome Rolling Peeps!

I'm in a good mood! The girls are looking like stout little bitches atm & I am a proud momma!

My plants are about 5 weeks from sprout & I have fetilized twice so far using 1/4 strength Ionize nutes doing a water, water nute kinda cycle. When is a good flushing required? How often does one flush??

Thanks in advance for your wisdom!!! As always bmeat, stay behind the barrier, bmeat free zone!!!

OMG.....Rep from me....your funny. I dont use soil so i cant really answer your question....but welcome to the site from another michigander.

Thanks so much!! I'm happy to have found this place! I've learned a lot from the people on here already.

My plants have made this cold, gray winter way more tolerable!!

Well, come on.....
We're waiting to see the babies from the proud parent.

The lights are off atm, they are sleeping but I will post some pics soon! They are small about 5" tall but the stems are getting thick & they are more bushy everyday.

They are starting to smell awesome too!!

flush who flushes? you using ionic at 1/4 dose i wouldnt even worry about it.

but if you must wait till bout week 7-8 then do one basic flush about 10x the water as there is soil in the pot. then give a week or 2 to dry out and finish ripening.

Uh . . . never and never if in soil. Flushing in soil is a fool's errand.

I'm using sunshine #4 advanced which is considered soiless if that makes a difference.

Many thanks!!!

flushing is just preference some do it some don't you gotta decide

I only flush before I do the flip to 12/12 or when my ladies are suffering from a nute-burn.
Some people flush in soil, others don't. I only do it because I've always done it, and because I've never really see it do any harm to my ladies.
