Do you need to flush weed that has been fed organic food

Does anyone know?

You don't need to flush ANY weed.

Stick with flushing your toilet.
Flushing is bro-science and completely unnecessary in any medium.

You get that by overfeeding. No amount of flushing is going to fix toxically overfed buds.

You'll also notice noone supporting flushing

I haven't done nearly enough of a deep dive on flushing to wanna shit on someone who does do it, but my own private 'experimentation' has led me to the likely conclusion that flushing is a bunch of bro-science. The flushed stuff was never noticeably tastier to me. Nowadays, I just feed the fuckers pretty much up until chop.

I think flushing is purely anecdotal

I grow in coco with GH nutrients and additives. I would say I use a "medium" feed level. I have personally done:

0 days flush (usual approach, 10-20 plants maybe?)
1 day flush (two plants)
3 days flush (approximately 6 plants)
5 days flush (approximately 9 plants)
10 days flush (only once, single plant)

My personal opinion, my smoothest buds were among the 5-day flushed plants BUT, I may have simply been taking better care of my environment & plants overall at that point. Nowadays, I hardly check my hygrometer unless the plants are doing something weird. I have no true data to back anything other than my own summed up experience.

I generally just taper down my feed to an almost-plain water the days leading up to chop. I'll usually skip a watering just to make the pot light & easy to move, also.

you do not flush plants - bro crap, only the people that grow in doors in there shed /bedroom seem to believe in flushing... must be a Bad Boy Bubby thing

You can lead them to water, but.............

You don’t need to flush.

Unless by flush you mean lowering your medias nutrient content for generative steering or to correct an over feeding issue.

But that’s not relevant to organics

Here's a study on flushing, spoiler, it doesn't do anything, and everyone here is trying to help you.

This is a great place for learning and talking with likeminded folk, but if you've got thick skin, put it on now.

Welcome to RIU.

Damn learn somethin new everybody

Water for 1 or 2 weeks does not change what the plant ate its whole life. What the plant is litteraly made of. If you want better weed use the best plant nutrients you can and don't overfeed. I haven't flushed a plant in 5 years.

So when you flush your medium, youre only minimizing nutrient in the medium, not the buds.
