Question in regards to flushing for those above (help a newbie out please). I've seen people such as Mr Grow it and Mr canuck (among others known and unknown) although both mentioned are using organic pre amended soil/coco, they only water (maybe with molas) for the last two weeks and get a beautiful fade through their girls consistently and although Mr grow it, had released a video showing a study which does mention a few benefits/debunk a few wives tails. Others such as Mr canuck and even Mr grow it honestly, support the "smoother smoke". A few others mention the breakdown of remaining/excess certain nutrients within the plant (i.e sulfur, phosphorous) which onsets quicker/ can occur from flushing prior to harvest.... my questions based on all this are
- When a plant is almost "ready", if it had slight nutrient burn, would the plant really only have what's needed to dry/cure/be smoked and no more?
- Is Chlorophyll the only internal contributing factor/compound towards taste within the plant/buds in the final few weeks of a pheno/plants life before the dark period/chop/dry/cure? (external factors being moisture/rh/temp/airflow that i can think of)
- Does having less/no nutrients in the soil (besides make the plant use whats inside of it) help break down Chlorophyll faster (minus n deficiency if that makes sense)?
Hopefully that all makes sense... i have a ton more questions but honestly i am still researching everyday
im sorry in advance if any frustrations caused - i'm trying to exclude the variables in my questions and get down to the bottom of this as well, and although obviously comparing two clones of the exact same plant/pheno and doing a side by side would probably be the only way to find if it makes a difference (besides placebo lol) i've 0 grows under the belt
