I've been seeing you around the boards and I am now fully convinced you're NOT that good a grower. You're advice is always wrong and you still don't know how to clone... Just stop giving advice and learn bro, there's nothing wrong with being new to this. There is a lot wrong with passing out bad advice left and right.

Overwatering and drowning your plants roots is a bad thing, so yes, flushing can and will hurt a plant.

I allow my plants to suck back up the run off and I grow trees. I also don't feed heavy and I use fabric pots. Most of the water just runs out of the sides and if I pick the pot up right then it's still very light. After an hour or 2 the run off is gone and now my pots feel heavy.

hello all I need your expertise with flushing before harvest. So I bee reading and watching a lot of videos on you tube but none answer my questions maybe someone here can. Ok so I'm ready to start flush tonight I wanna do a two week flush three of needed but the part I'm confused about if if I don't have a drain in my grow room can I let plants absorb the run off water or is it a must drain situation? Some one please help!!!!!!!

Has anyone mentioned a ShopVac yet? I find its invaluable in the grow tent when it comes time to put excessive amounts of water through the pots.

Is that right? So youve seen my grow journals? Or are you just reading chucky estevez cunt who calls me a noob only because i call myself that after five years of growing.

And ya...i just recently started cloning. Ive always grown from seed.

As for what your talking about my advice...what is that exactly that you have a problem with?

If youre flushing to remove salts from your medium why would you allow your plants to sit in it and suck it back up.

What you describe is similar a bottom draw type of watering. Drip your pots and let it suck up. Lots of people use that technique. And as along as the water/nutez are good there are advantages to it

But thats not what this guy is asking about. Totally different situation...

Even when I used synthetic ferts I didnt feed heavy. If you're having to flush to remove salts then you're over feeding.... hence doing it wrong because you're NOT a ninja.

But my bad for even speaking, you just keep over feeding and flushing bruh.. carry on

You flush, do you not? Are you not giving advice based on your experience?

Because you dont want that high ass tds water going back in your plants, right?

Yes and Yes. But I don't exactly flush the way its defined by many. I just run some extra water thru, not like 3x or 5x (or whatever it is) the pot volume. I just don't ever let things get bad enough to have to run that kind of huge volumes of water thru the soil.
