after a "royal flush" how soon can you harvest?

So a royal flush is a method to prepare your plants for harvest by removing xcess salts and nutrients from the soil and the roots and plants.You simply feed only water and molasses (if you like i do ) for the last ten days of flower and on day 9 and 10 you flush with the same amount of water as you use soil I use 3 gal growbags so on both day 9 and 10 i feed 3 gallons water and 3 tblspn molasses .They were put back under the lights and i plan on cutting them today just b4 the lights go back on.(the plants store all excess stuff they arent using in the soil when its dark and the instant the leaves get light they ask the roots for food thats why i chop in the dark.)is it safe to cut now or should i wait another 24 hrs to maximize the flush and have the cleanest smoke.

sorry for the self promotion but lights come on in 1 hr so i really would like to hear some opnions b4 i go running in the dark with my knife

let er grow man ....got pics?

my avitar is one of them ive got pics throught my threads but not for this one

mm id sai shes alomst ready but give her sai another week mayb less than harvest her..id wait until the soil starts to dry a bit..then cut it..happy harvest

Yeah man - wait until next watering, or water once more then harvest

allready picked thanks for the help though

haha noob ,.....shuda waited

noob???????? you better check yourself.son i grow dank and do a fine job. im no noob by anymeans.And for your info I refrenced a cultivation book to answer my own question and turs out they recomend cutting 24 hrs after the flush which is what i did.So i find it funny you coming to my thread obviously uneducated in what you profess to know,calling me out.I think you should be more carefull who you disrespect.considering its a fact you dont have any knowledge in the correct way to grow marijuana.

hahah okay jus cause u got it from a book dosent mean its truu...y harvest 24 hours later...this jus makes the buds more heavy with water weight...if u waited a lil bit longer ur buds woulda been a bit dryer nd u prolly coulda got a bit more...nd i didnt call u out i said noob...its my opinion....ur opinion is im uneductated w.e well leave it at that smoke a joint nd fuckin chill

Are you serious???????? the plants only use what it needs and stores the rest in the soil.And the more water stored in the soil the better the chance of the roots locking up

ok..haha.....well leave it at that....HAPPY HALLOWEEN

nd for all those who think i dont know what im saying here is the PROPER way to flush: Use plain water...using this leaches out extra nutrients salts for better tasting pot. U will notice as u flush the excess salts fan leaves will get lighter (yellow) ...
Add enough fresh water to tottally saturate the medium. Once medium is soaked ..wait 5 minutes to allow fresh water to dissolve the leftover nutes....
Once the first dose has fully dissolved those unused nutes..its time to add the second and final dose in the flushing process...Second dose should be equal to the physical volume of the container ur growing in.....For Ex. if ur growing in 1 gallon bucket ...u want to add atleast 1 gallon of fresh water for the second dose....the more the better during the second dose- within reason-.......doing the flush in this 2 step process further dissolves ALL excess nutrients salts...same idea as stepping a tea bag...the longer u let it sit in the water the more the tea will take from the bag!.....If ur flushing a soil medium consider this`~.....Organic soils are the food for the plant, so you can never really get rid of all the nutes away from ur plants root system......soo ull need to time things carefully..flush within 24 hours of harvest...u need to harvest when roots are still in fresh water ..For Ex. if we flush than wait for a few days to harvest the roots will have enuff time to begin feeding the plant again...generally 2 weeks of flushing is going to provide thorough a flush as you can expect...if ur plants leaves are all ready yellow from lack of nitrogen..theres no need to flush for 2 weeks ..but if ur plant is fulll in life nd still green flush for 2-weeks....ALWays harvest in the dark at the end of 12 hour night cycle..u do this because the plant is pulling up nutes when the lights are on...when flushing take off a branch taste the liquid coming out the end of the branch..if its bitter its not ready for harvest..but if it tastes clean almost like water than ur ready for harvest...IF U FOLLOW THESE STEPS CAREFULY UL HAVE GOOD TASTING POT ND AN EVEN BETTER HIGH>>>>HAPPY SMOKIN

hey thanks for posting that cause you just proved everything i did was correct.and that you were wrong for telling me to wait.Kudos to you for inadvertently swallowing your whole foot

ahaha np...lmaoo ..i jus wanted to see if u were a good grower...every grower knows the "just" of flushing ...so kudos to u to for ..harvesting ur plant at the right time nd not waiting like some inexperinced growers might tell u too..haha makes no sense does it thats what i like it to be like..
PEACE ...let me kno how much u got off of her..shud take a week or so no?

MORAL OF THE STORY: dont listen to jus anybody..even thought it may seem proper or professional..always do additonal research nd get ur shit straight before strating any grow or finsihing it..HAPPY SMOKIN ...im down by da bay der by~

That might be true for dirt..But what about hydro????? I flush for the last twoo weeks of finishing. All the stored nutes left in those fan leaves will nurish those buds and I add only ph water and some mollasses to the end. As far as cutting my girls, I ALWAYS cut in the evening as they get that last shot of light to ripen those buds.I have never cut the whole plant down. I find that the upper will be ready before the lower smaller buds.
I chop the tops, then wait usally 2 to 2 1/2 weeks later then harvest agian..Works for me

it all depends my friend..what eveer works the best

I was going to say I'd cut it but you already did. I do what Rye guy said pretty much word for word but as he also said to each his own. Everyone has what they think works I don't know what is truly best.

everyones got there own ways..i jus posted one of the ways i do it jus incase some one needed info or help..happy smokin
