Lmaooo id never lol. I try not to be biased because I’ve only tried certain things so far. But that I wouldn’t be trying. It was a good experience builder. Some people have to see for themselves. Personally I don’t think I like flushing. I got some strains that aren’t purple and are turning purple from malnutrition soooo I just can’t look at that as a positive effect. The plant is obviously still hungry and starving it isn’t gonna make it better, only worse.
I think it’s plant/grower dependent. If you feed properly I wouldn’t think a flush is needed. I could see slowing nutrients toward the end because it could become a waste at some point.

Plus when you’ve grown fully hydro you see how the plants utilise slightly less nutes during the final weeks which manifests itself as increasing nutrient strength and pH drop in your reservoir.

You know everything. Why even post here? You should write a book instead.

Oh, almost forgot, remember to boil the roots. It's all about the turps, bruh.

yeah i always used to flush myself and im kinda starting to lean towards the idea now that flushing has more negative effects than positive, loads of people tell me that all you do is deprive your plant of nutrients at the time where it needs it most, right at the end, to produce all those terpenes, trichomes and swelling up. and starting to think only time i do need to flush is if plant is showing signs of any toxicity/overfeeding
loads of people will tell you different things, but best way to do it is try all the methods, and see what you think yourself.

I've washed my live aquarium plants in bleach, about 20-1

Was really skeptical before I tried it, even use a toothbrush on some.

I'm only feeding a quarter as much now and only running the light 7 hours a day.

don't have to wash those plants in Bleach anymore.

Yeah you can also love that your little fishies and plants to death

Don't know if your eyes work or if you just read the bits you want to hear but as stated in previous posts. this is my first time growing so until I try not flushing and flushing myself and see the out come for myself is then I guess your input is kinda worthless budget man

The advice is only as worthless as the person not taking it.

In the end they are your plants, you're more than welcome to try whatever you'd like on them. Good luck!
