Flushing indoor in soil

There was a fancy study. Individual people noticed different flavors between flush/no flush, but there wasn't a consistent result. Like some people thought one was better, and other people thought the other was better.


How many plants are you growing? You should try to flush some for 2 weeks and fertilize some all the way and see which you like better. Or if there is any difference at all.

If using chemicals, in the last 2 weeks, I would first cut fert 25%, and then the last week before harvest, another 25%, and only for the reason the plant is simply not going to be using fert, and water like it was, so I make a small adjustment. One could give them more food, but is not necessary.
Flushing, is a myth, unless it is to remove high amounts of excess fertilizer, because of burn, or lockout. Not to get rid of fert, in the plant.

You beat me to the study. I was the one who originally posted it.

I'd bet it would be hard to tell the difference between to flush or not to flush regarding taste but who knows, not me.
I think there is a difference but best way though is to find out for yourself maybe try flushing half your crop and not the other half dry and cure it right and see what you prefer what jar your reaching for more

A picture would be helpful, but unless you're using synthetic nutes a lockout is highly unlikely.
I recently had a problem of under feeding them but got that straightened out.

I can't tell if this stuff is synthetic or organic I don't think either word is on the whole jug.

I've only been infusing so I'm pretty sure I couldn't tell there, might give me an excuse to burn one.

6 with 3 strains. Here's an old pic when they were being under fed ignorantly. I'm shooting for quality and potency but only usually infuse, I'm guessing the only difference with burning versus infusing would be a better taste for burning.

I originally just wanted four but I couldn't bring myself to killing the other two, now it's a crowded party. 20241115_210357.jpg
