Flushing question, no debates please.

Waiting to see those 40 or 35% bigger more bad ass buds. That much heavier, too. Clowns. I'm looking for something about as big around as a telephone poll. It better no be anything near the size of a thigh or calf muscle, because that has been done with flushing at week 5 for decades. Lets see it.

I read an article that you're feeding your plants into the last day of flowering with a yield no better than someone who flushes at week 6. Show me these buds that are 35 to 40% bigger and badder, more developed because you opted to feed until the last day of flowering due to some piece of information you read that you cannot apply. You spent' 35 to 40% more money getting the same product, but you weren't duped into pushing nutrients all the way to the last day.. Show me these 35% 40% bigger buds because you didn't flush. Feeding correctly to start with is a huge deal... but to say to flush = not knowing how plants work is hilarious when not one of you can show me a bud that is THAT much better because you fed it THAT much longer. You're fools. Continue to quibble over science that you cannot apply. There is a lot of antiquated information there, however, while understanding the science behind what you're saying, it's null and void if your product isn't that much better. Understanding something doesn't mean anything if you cannot apply it, and once applied if the benefit to expense ratio isn't there, you're wasting your fucking time. Keep telling me about all your books and science as if nobody has ever read one, or knows anything about anything.

Who said anything about unflushed buds being 40 percent (or any percent bigger)? Show us links to your vast scientific learning on flushing.

you're feeding 40% longer.... show me these big ass buds to back up your science. Something bigger in comparison to a flushed plant. Show me this difference, and how it's beneficial, and how you're not spending more money on nutrients. Your expense to benefit ratio is out of whack. You weed isn't that much better because you feed it longer

these buds that you get becausse you feed longer... evidently it's beneficial and everyone was wrong for decades. They may have been. I want to see this benefit in feeding to the last day. So you know something... it probably isn't doing anything for you. Does that make good sense to you? You're more than welcome to your school of thought, but science aside... your product isn't that much better. Period.

you just haven't supported this argument of not flushing with a discernible difference in your weed. You know something, though. hahha. You spend more money to get the same shit. I'm not here to stop you dude.

don't overfeed and you won't have to do that

I grow for personal use only. I don't care about getting a few more grams or even alot more, I know each round I will have way more than enough to last through the end of the next one. I care about having the smoothest finished bud possible, so i will continue to flush, even though I don't overfeed in the first place. It damn sure does make a discernable difference. When I started growing I fed right up to the chop. A few years in I gave flushing a try and never turned back.

It's a tid bit of science that nutrient companies latched onto and promoted, and now every kid that grows weed thinks he knows because GH or some company told him so. If there were much to it, we would be seeing 30 and 40 percent increases in size and weight to reflect this feeding schedule. These gigantic buds that are that much bigger and better than someone who flushes don't exist. Science is science and it isn't a matter of opinion. However, with your science applied if you don't benefit you're spinning your wheels and complicating things for no reason

I'll be around, waiting get owned by these pictures of buds that are bigger, better, and stronger because you spent more money feeding them. I want to see at least a 30 percent larger, heavier, more dense... terpene rich flower , that is that way because you fed it 30% or so longer. If you can't, your economics is fucked up.

citations? "da buds swell da last 2 days" c'mon man. A lot of that is due to genetics and environmental factors, and not burning your shit down. On a basic level, you're right.

I've done it both ways no real difference so I just quit flushing but could see where strain choice & growing method could come into play I like your username we used to call elvin pig boy crabshaw don't know where it started but elvin always put on a good show especially in the smaller gigs
