That is unfortunate. That's why every intake to my tent is filtered. I have two dogs and I don't want their hair in my weed.

OH MY GOD I JUST SAW THOSE FILTHY HAIRS
But my cats don't even step inside the room where the grow is located, i saw before those kind hairs getting stuck on my fans, maybe is from something inside the grow room or outside, but sure nothing from my cats or my pubic area lol

Maybe i got it, these are the same hairs from the carbon filter full white, my cats are black and so are my hairs....
So yeah that's where these hairs come from.... But damn how can i manage this?

Btw if i got 3 more weeks to go, when should i stop feedin nutes giving only water?

That’s a hot topic if debate that could spark a riot.


First question.
what do you hope to achieve by giving just water?

Second question
What medium are you using? Soil soiless hydro etc?

Here is a link to a study done on flushing to hopefully expel any myths Associated to its uses etc.


www.rxgreentechnologies.com

Cannabis Flushing Research Study

In our research study, RX Green Technologies evaluated the effects of different flushing times on chemical profile, flavor, and smoke of cannabis flower.

Read it and make an informed choice for yourself or try a few different methods.

Many growers will take the word of some dude on youtube over a scientific study done by someone with a PhD.

I'm growing in soil Biobixx light mix, and i was hopin to remove nutes from the flowers with the flushing (to avoid bad aroma), anyway i'll look into the flushing research and i'll let you know.
Thing is btw, wasn't billybob that told me about flushing ;) but the charts of my nutes (Plagron) and basically what i've been reading around

Flushing removes nothing from the plant. All it does is flush stuff out of the soil.

I don't listen to anything these companies say. This is from Plagrons website.

"This rinses the unneeded nutrients out of the soil and out of the plant. "

Pure nonsense but they print it anyway. But they are half right. It rinses nutrients out of the soil but for a company to say that it rinses nutrients out of the plant is pure nonsense. And if they hadn't had people overfeeding their plants to begin with there would be no reason to rinse anything out of the soil.

The only reasonable use for flushing is to clean out your medium.

So i guess that the charts of Plagron are wrong and they're all just a bunch of morons? Lol, i think it depends on the nutes you use, maybe mine are more chemical than the nutrients used by RX Green.
I'm not an expert or anything like that, just trying to figure out who's wrong here, Plagron company or these theoryes i've never heard about.

But as i said maybe we can't compare cause the nutes used are different

Just about all nutrient companies have you overfeeding your plants if you go by their directions. It's not just Plagron. I use nothing but chemical salts. The same ingredients most nutrient companies put into their bottles. I mix them myself at much less strength than what most people are feeding. I have healthy plants from start to finish. I don't have crispy leaves, I don't get spots, I don't get deficiencies. So yes I think many of the charts are wrong because they have people overfeeding their plants and developing nutrient antagonism which they try and correct the deficiencies caused by antagonism by adding more stuff which just causes more issues.

As for do I think they're morons? Not all but many are. I might be a moron myself but I grow healthy plants from start to finish without following some chart by some company ran by people with a background in marketing and not plant science.

I do agree that they give charts that overfeeds the plant but that depends on the strain you're growin, you have to adjust to what your plant wants. For example I've followed the charts as instructed and i've had no major problems of overfeeding.

But anyway that's not the point here, i'm talking about flushing the last week as they say in their charts, stay in the topic pls i didn't ask about overfeeding

I agree another 3+ weeks by the looks of the photos. In coco, I feed until 1-2 weeks before chop and finish with water only (normal amount of water).
