Hey what's up fellow Hawaiian growers. I have been growing off and on for 25 years and never seen branches rot where it comes out of the main stalk. Six weeks into flowering. Genetic or bugs? Anyone have any clue? Mahalo for any manao

I get it quite a bit, but don't know what it is exactly.

I mix the sulfur powder into some non-toxic acrylic paint and paint it on the affected areas. It's pretty target specific when done this way.

Got the idea from Gene of Aficionado seeds who uses a grafting paint mixed with sulfur powder and paints it on all his trunks to protect them when they split from growing so fast up in Nor Cal.

My Jack the Ripper is about 2 weeks away from harvest. Should I start flushing it ? I was gonna start with about 10 gallons of pH'd RO water, a coupla dousings.

What kind of media and feed are you using? And do you want to throw up a couple pics to get a second opinion on ripeness? A lot of people cut early in my opinion.

I am at the same place on my Super Cali girls I am testing. This week they are getting RO water with MASSIVE, SourDee, and a little calMag as I am in coco. Next week just water.

For the final cut I am thinking of trying the boiling water flush on last day. RM3 and his crew seem to like it. I will see how it goes.

Flushing is bullshit. Plants do not get "flushed". Only thing you are doing is flushing water through the medium. Plants uptake what they need not what you put to them....Drop your feeding down if you want if you think that makes a difference but plants dont "flush"

I thought the idea of flushing was to clear the soil of nutrients to improve taste. No?

I admit to watching too many You Tube videos where someone is always telling me something different. You're a seasoned grower and know how to keep it simple. I'm a susceptible newbie, but ahhh the smell coming off those girls !!

Works pretty good for speeding up the cure. I've only done it once though

Hmm. It also depends on the nutes used. Organic I would agree with water, molasses water, water. However, am using soil less, and do notice a difference when not flushing. My 2cents.
