Dude once they have TV shows about this shit like they do with wine and food. Lol. Your next opinionated factoid will be how unqualified flavor experts are and how unreliable the current industry's methodology for quantifying flavors and contaminants are.These.
I flush for null days before harvest.
Sometimes I will flush lines and media to remove salt and solids buildup in the system.
No reason to do a pre-harvest flush other than stoner mysticism.
(True believers can fight me!)
So which "grow chems" did the weed taste like?Dude once they have TV shows about this shit like they do with wine and food. Lol. Your next opinionated factoid will be how unqualified flavor experts are and how unreliable the current industry's methodology for quantifying flavors and contaminants are.
Let's see a side by side flushed vs unflushed cancer study. Nitrate levels will suffice.
I'm waiting patiently for that day. You ain't smoked with enough people if you think weed can't taste like grow chems instead of weed. Some real humans left on earth can perceive these things. As for the rest we have science and numbers and shit, from the essential oil industry. And the food industry. And the candy industry. And then medical industry. And many more industries much older and more important than the chemigation racket. The inventor of force fed plant vitamins denounced that shit in his own life time. Think about that. Back before everyone's taste buds were fucked i guess? And they could see where all the problems came from instead of buying more problems?
Your rant is shockingly ignorant. Referring pejoratively to “science and numbers and shit” is a great way to demonstrate your vast lack of understanding, thanks.Dude once they have TV shows about this shit like they do with wine and food.

That’s basically what I do, also. In soil, coco, rockwool dtw, and rdwc. Usually end up about 1.0ec (500 ppm NaCl scale tds) toward the end, but not lower. I usually only flush my media twice per run, and I run the same nutrients pretty much the whole time, except a little bump of MKP during flower.Flushing is only useful to leach excess nutrients from grow medium should there be a buildup at some point. I used to but it’s pointless and does more damage than good.
I “flush” every week or two in coco to clear out buildup. A gallon or two of water through the pot until I get a low ppm. Then follow that immidantly with a full feed.
I run a lower ppm towards the end of flower but no flushy flushy. Then dry and cure.
My fresh weed tastes like sugary hash, always. The distinct flavors come later. Never "harsh" until terpenes hit over 10% (wimps may puss out at 5%)It’s cool man, there are a few of us here who don’t pre-harvest flush. I taper off nutes at the very end, and I only run about 100ppm N for most of the run, but a proper dry and cure means so much more to the end product than any sort of flushing ever will. Plants are made of those nutrients, I have never understood that argument.
Also, to the other poster: Copper sulfate is what makes Miracle Gro blue, probably.
All my strains have their own personal traits smell wise- not sure why yours don't??My fresh weed tastes like sugary hash, always. The distinct flavors come later. Never "harsh" until terpenes hit over 10% (wimps may puss out at 5%)
Dispensary weed taste like contaminants, smells like specific grow product you could walk into the broponics shop and put your finger right on. Fresh or cured.. Why?
I don’t accept the premises upon which your question is based.My fresh weed tastes like sugary hash, always. The distinct flavors come later. Never "harsh" until terpenes hit over 10% (wimps may puss out at 5%)

So..again..how does "flushing" or leaching or watering whichever one you may mean with that stoner term...I'm guessing you mean watering, remove immobile nutrients from the plant and how do you avoid the movement of mobile nutrients from the plant to the flowers?Yes in virtually all cases weed needs to be flush, for those of you that don't think so great I'm not here to argue I could careless if anyone does or not, for anyone that wants to listen don't take my word for it I'll tell you how to prove it send it to a lab and have it tested, Really anyone growing should do this regardless you wouldn't believe the shit in your weed. there is like 12 labs iab canada, a good one B.C. But they check for everything THC CBD Terpens etc also bacterial culture, mould, , fungal growth pathogens etc.And Heavy metals, lead, chromium, mercury etc I think most places check for like 30+. anyone thats been around the industry or has done a fair bit of lab testing knows that the number ONE hit in the heavy metals department is phosphorous fertilizer. any why is that so bad , because it is very high in cadmium. even very small amounts of cadmium over time will effect the lungs kidneys bones etc. So you can flush every bit out you possibly can with RO water or you can fucking smoke it what ever makes you happy, and yes labs testing shows a big difference in flushed weed and not flushed weed. Oh and another big hitter is arsenic. Here is another fun fact in studies/tests done show 30-40% of Dispensary weed can't pass health Canada's standards, they fail for chemicals, pathogens,bacteria and moulds
