flushing question

[loveintheganja]

i was wondering seeing as most growers use nutrients in their grows and some people dont flush their plants..
well if enough people dont flush and your gonna be smoking it rugularly do you reckon that could cause any long term effects on people???

just a thought that crossed my mind guys seeing as a some of the commercial growers dont really care plus them contaminating it with all sorts of stuff like glass and shit??

I'm not sure, you would have to assume there maybe be some risk. Seems to make it harsh to smoke to occassionally.

If you really have your grow dialed in, it's not really necessary to flush. I know guys who switch to straight water, for the last 2 weeks or so, and never flush. As long as you haven't been giving them much more nutes than they require, by the time the plants have finished, the soil is basically, clean, and so is the smoke. That's the logic behind it, anyway. Personally, I flush mine, sometimes twice. I like to flush at some point during the first two weeks of flowering, then again at the end. I like flushing at the beginning, because it gives the medium a fresh start, when the plants need it most...flower building time.

Totally Agree
