It's pointless to try to explain things to people who already know it all like yourself. If you're telling people they need to do something you should be able to explain why, period. There's a reason it's called search and not research? That's clever you should put that on a bumper sticker. Unfortunately the research people do are on other sites just like this one, so they repeat what they read without any first hand knowledge or experience. Here's an example
Flushing.
I've smoked bud from the exact same crop/strain, most plants were flushed and a few were not, there was an EXTREME difference in the way the weed burned and finished.
.It's plain and simple, when using synthetic nutrients in ALL VARIETIES of mediums, there can be some salt build up. Not always but sometimes.
Another thing is when you burn a bowl and it leaves behind a black ash plug and doesn't burn all the way/leave white ash, I'd say either there's something left in your product that could essentially be "flushed" out before cropping, or it's just by chance that it taste like crap, pops and cracks and doesn't burn correctly, who knows really there are tons of variables.
All your quotes from November, now you're singing a different tune and you don't need it. Your last post from that thread.
I've been busy. I read all the replies and the articles and links you all provided and then some. I will have to say my opinion on flushing has been changed.
You typed walls of text, mocked people, and made smart ass sarcastic comments advocating something you knew nothing about, no search, no research, certainly no experience.
Yesterdays claims by you
AN sensi a/b vs AN grow/bloom/micro
For some reason his seems to be finishing two weeks earlier and with more and smellier bud on the plant. I've never heard of this, it is for sure the same plant from clone, smells the same just stronger.
Did you notice you quoted a two year old post just to talk shit and call names? Nope, you wanted to tell him how "your friend" had the biggest yields (21 gram cola?) the best taste and faster flowering times using AN. You didn't explain how or why your friend was a superior grower, all you wanted to do is call someone who disagrees a hater. Again without any research. If you weren't in such a rush to tell everyone how superior of a grower you are you'd have noticed the MULTIPLE comparison grows in his sig.
So when I see someone making claims like you do, I'll ask simple questions. It helps me know who's full of shit and who's info should be avoided. What's lame is pretending, supporting, and arguing about things you've never done. What your friend did, you heard, or saw on youtube isn't valuable to me. You don't like it tough shit, get over it.
Here's some facts about AN for you so this post isn't a complete waste of time.

Throw some epsom salt in a bottle and call it a "flushing solution"

You..."It's pointless to try to explain things to people who already know it all like yourself"
Me ....obviously..."I've been busy. I read all the replies and the articles and links you all provided and then some. I will have to say my opinion on flushing has been changed."
You ..."Did you notice you quoted a two year old post just to talk shit and call names?"
I read a post that had been revived by someone else a couple days ago, was I supposed to look at the dates while reading backwards through people's rude comments? Also show me where I called names on this post cause I don't recall it... Any shit talking was just calling out shit talkers like you.... Don't see anything other than that.
You again...."You typed walls of text, mocked people, and made smart ass sarcastic comments advocating something you knew nothing about, no search, no research, certainly no experience."
I like to debate... How does someone learn without questioning something? I'll have to admit my style is straightforward but I don't remember mocking anyone. No search, no research, no experience, those are some bogus claims considering that's what I came to do and that's how I got here was searching.
I can tell by the way you ask these little stupid questions to people that you are just here to "mock and make smart ass comments" to them, you're definitely not here to learn as you already know it all..
As for the rest of us, who understand science isn't the knowing of all things, we will continue to debate about it. im sure somewhere along the line we will find one your useless comments throwing someone off like....
"Bigger yield in a shorter time, sounds like a win/win. Wonder why more people don't use it. How do you know when to flush if AN shortens flowering times? Should I use AN's flushing solution, I don't wanna taste chemicals. Thanks"
And of course I believed you and my reply was litterally built from information I got from talking to you...
But you were too busy trolling around looking for another stupid question to ask someone to help your inferiority complex.
As for bud factor x containing a pesticide! Lol it's salicylic acid or the same stuff used in acne medications and wart removers. They know it's in there it's what causes the SAR response that makes the plant grow more trichomes, as for the guarenteed analysis it's not required to say much so there could be other ingredients not listed that may help improve taste somehow. (I wasn't advocating using it I'm just not super against advanced nutrients or any lineup for that matter)
"Products that are fertilizers only, and have
no claimed functions other than as
plant nutrients have the simplest
labeling requirements. ... For example, Hydrogen is
not considered to be a
plant nutrient, so it cannot appear on the
label."
Who cares what's inside... If it works for some people and they don't want to mix Epsom salt and water then cool right? Maybe instead of being angry that people don't know just jump on the bandwagon and start selling bottled Epsom salt and water. If advanced nutrients can and get 5 star reviews and best sellers with it why not you?
Oh for your question... "I wonder why more people don't use it?" Look it up its the number one selling plant nutrient lineup for cannabis on the market.... Yes I'm sure there was more brands of non specific nutrients that sold higher on a commercial level, and no I've never bought it or used it I just got some for free basically, I can't say for myself just what I've seen others do with it.
Have a good time asking useless questions... Really helps people looking for answers.
