Growing is the easy part. Post harvest is where the real magic happens.

Just started reading this, scientific evidence saying flushing is bad on page three but it's 47 pages long. Even Science can't explain that shit.

Overfert = Flush
No burn at all = No Flush.
And if there's no difference why is there all this nonsense? Let the grower do as he/she pleases.
Just my $4.24

Shit dries quick here, especially when my dryng area is around 100 degrees farenhite, but thats all I have. And besides both the weed picked straight off the plant and the shit flushed for a week were subject to the same drying time in the same conditions so its not entirely flawed. Just to clarify too, i dont rush my shit to the market, i normally dont part with it till it's cured at least a month in glass jars but this time everyone was screaing for it as everywhere was dry and i thoroughly informed everyone that it wasn't really ready but they wanted it anyway.

Also, do you honestly think commercial growers (ie the growers of the bud that most people smoke) is ever cured? Its quick dried and sold wet half the time, left to dry out in the smaller tier dealers hands.

I am not sure where you got that info from. Wet weed packaged up would be a big bale of mold within days.

You know what I mean surely? Not damp, not soaking wet but not dry either. I've been sold plenty of pounds like that normally... by lebbo's or wogs lol.
Hence why i started growing my own and keeping a set of ethics with me.

Just because your dealer sells you wet pounds and you are dumb enough to buy it doesnt mean that its the norm. Its misinformation machines like you that have clogged this site up with bullshit.

Growers love it when people buy wet weed, I spent a lot of time r/o'ing and ph'ing and oxygenating it. I should get paid for it right?

Its actually true, for most mexi brick weed anyway. Its sprayed with fungicide and then put into a form and pressed into bricks,all while still pretty moist. Thats why its malleable enough to be compressed like that. I saw some show on nat geo or discovery or something where they filmed the process.

back in the day, i used to buy that crap in coffee cans, you never knew what you were gonna get until you opened it. sometimes you got fruity, sometimes,most times, you got ammonia(mold)

It seems you either dont have the intelligence to see what im getting at or you've never had ppl screaming at yr door after any weed they can their hands on. When you're moving 5 pounds a week and the only shit you can get is stuff a few days away from being ready and nothin else you are gonna take whatever you can get and keep yr customers and yr wallet happy.
I was tied in with "commercial growers" in my younger years, some may call them organise crime gangs or whatever but these guys dont smoke weed, they grow it to make cash and couldn't give a fuck what chemicals were used to kill bugs and certainly aren't concerned about curing their shit, once it's dry and burns its ready to sell as far as they are oncerned. Thats all I was getting at mate; big time growers, the growers who supply most of the weed in Australia, DO NOT CURE. Hence why i started growing all those years ago and i'm very proud to hear time and time again over the years that my shit is the best any of my customers have smoked (which is surely more genetics related than anything else).
Sorry to have gotten yr knickers in a knot, Mr Kermit.

you people obviously dont know shit about growing buds. how in the fuck do you think its not important to flush? buds need to be clean of chlorophyll and nutes to get the great smells and flavors. if you like sparkling buds,that on you. that why im know for the best here in colorado springs. my shit isvalways bomb.
Ooo look, another flush-bot.

well, i do soil. so i can only say what i have experienced myself. when i have three weeks to cut, i do not feed anymore, in fact, the last feeding before that, is a nice dose of big bloom. then when they are thirsty agiain, i put like 5 times the ph'd water thru em. i usually get three good flushes. and then i cut em when they have about gone dry again, but by this time, they are not moveing much liquid anymore. i currently have four bc gods, that are 64 days today. very yellow. im about to post some pics. they have had three flushes, as described, thru them. i know they like the first one alot. the water is dark and a bit acrid. the old salts that the poor plant sits in. dirty diapers!! they allways look perky the next day! cleans the scum off the roots, too, as i add some peroxide to the flush water.
