Opinions on flushing befrore harvest

[labratlee]

Hey there guys.. An girl's

just thought id make this thread to get peoples opinions on flushing before harvest, in a soil grow.

iv read different views about flushing, do we flush with 3x soil volume of water 2 weeks before, do we just stop feeding nutrients and give water for two weeks, do we feed nutrients right up to harvest and do a big flush the day before, or what ever else works? Lol.

I'm approaching the end of my first grow. And would love to get the best tasting weed I possibly can. I'm not sure how quickly its gonna mature from this point as its my first grow.

id be very interested in hearing all of your tried and tested methods... I'm sure there is no really wright or wrong way... Its just what works for you I guess.

thanks in advance for sharing any of your valued opinions... Not only for me but for anyone else who may gain knowledge from you peeps.

peace

2 weeks prior to harvest Flushing is a must for smooth smoke.

Flush once every 3 days. So in two weeks you will flush 4-5 times. Then let plant dry out for 2-3 days in total darkness. Then chop suey

In the last 3-4 weeks I've seen extreme bud development that's the norm, I'd like to hear some opinions on flushing agents, I've read that you can use yucca (a natural saponin) and that only takes 2-4 days, and usually you would speculate when you want to start your flush, and also while im here I might as well say, would you need to flush if you followed the Lucas effect ? And personally I don't think it's the most important thing unless you are adding tons of nutrients,
