Flushing in soil

Hi am am new to growing and was wondering about flushing in soil, im currently in week 4 of flowering my 6 super skunk clones. I got a grow tent with a 600W HPS, there in some good soil from the local grow shop. I am using Ionic soil Nutrients.

What do i need to do when flushing in soil? just plain water? should i give them extra water near the end of flowering and most importanly when do i flush?

As much advice on flusing in soil would be greatly appreciated.

Here is a video of them in the 2ND week of flowering

Peace

I wouldnt flush just yet, wait till about 12-8 days from your estimated harvest window.
I just water em a bit longer with regular water, Basiclly soak em but dont drown em.
Just flush em.
hahahaha sorry im high!....

pour 3 times the container size of water through them! so if your in 3 gallon pots pour about 9 gallon of water through them, i normally carry them to the shower to do this, makes it alot easier. also i like to flush when i think there ready then let them dry completely out, then chop. hope this helps.

Like Jayy's said, you dont need to flush until youre almost ready to harvest.

however, if you do want to flush, like Robsterb said you may need to transfer your plants to the bathtub. Ive learned that once the water comes out kinda clear, then the flush is done, which is about 3 times the container size. Youre pretty much flushing all the nuts and stuff in the soil so when its pretty clear then it should be good.
keep in mind flushing puts your plants through lots of stress.


pretty much ive learned its the growers personal preference if they want to flush. Some say flushing before harvest takes the chem taste away, others cant tell a difference.
personally i would love to grow 100% organic, no nutes or anything like that, just soil and water. but until then im use FF trio and i flush before im about to harvest.
