Forgot to flush before harvest

[past times]

kind of an idiot and forgot to flush one of my plants before i harvested. right now i the stalks that i cut down sitting in water in the flower room. you think if i do that for a couple days it will help with the flush

In theory, one would think this would not work for you IMO. Good luck!

I might try to re-root. I sounds good in theory but I'm not sure how effective it will be. I've smoked bud that I didn't flush vefore. And it really wasn't that much more harsh. Had kind of a crappy after taste but whatever. Once you're blitzed the after taste is soon gone after all the cookies and pizza, etc.

this doesn't really sound like a great idea. If your plant reverts to veg and starts to build roots again (which is the only way it could flush itself that way) the THC in the plant is going to start breaking down very rapidly.

I think that's a terrible idea. Just dry it and cure it for like 8 weeks, then go for it. Time makes the smoke nicer as well (I think, anyway), so just do that. Or just deal with a little harsher smoke.

so bad idea aye. the long cure should do it

If you keep it on 12/12 there's no way it will re-veg. But the THC would suffer under the light. Just harvest and cure my friend. Cure it longer than usual.

If you are worried about smoking harsh chemicals from your nutes, then just water cure the buds from the plant that you forgot to flush.

Smoke it anyway! Who knows, you might hallucinate or something. Or cough up blood or something cool like that.

how low were u running your nutes in the prior week to harvest?? If it was high and therefore taste strongly of chemicals, i would consider water curing. Otherwise as the others have said just cure it well.

Try to "water cure" it!

Are you talking about ice on the roots?

I soaked unflushed buds for 5 days and it came out great.

You just need to immerse them in water and change it every day for a week. Then just dry them out quickly. You loose a fair amount of weight in the process but it gets rid of the nasty taste of chems.
