1-2 weeks before harvest with ph adjust water. or you could go with florakleen or some other flushing product and go by what it says on the bottle.

Wrong!!!!

Your plants put on up to 25% of their total weight in the last two weeks of growth. You shouldn't need to flush with hydro if you aren't over fertilizing in the first place. The purpose of flushing is to remove excess nutes in the event of nute burn. If you flush during the last two weeks, you will severely affect your yield in a negative way.

flush in hydro for like 4 days. solid.

I dont know where you are getting your info from Johnny, there are two types of flushes. one if you have excess nutrients and you always want to flush before you harvest. it dose not effect yields as you flush when your plant has hit maximum yield. you do not want to smoke that nutrient therefore you flush your plants. However when I flush I still add Molasses to the water and your buds will still get a little fatter. your leafs will start to discolor but dont worry thats the plant telling you there is no nutrients. I always take a leaf and taste the liquid from where i cut it and if there is no taste (it tasts like clean water you are set to go) it usually takes my plants about 6 days for a good flush and make sure that you cut the plants on the night cycle as alot of fluid is pulled back to the roots so i usually cut the plants right before the 12hours of night end.

Whatever works for you man. I haven't had a need to flush before harvest. I keep my PPM's no higher than 1300; no "nute taste" and my ashes burn white.

im on my 9th week when should i start to flush the trichs are clear and cloudy no amber im thinking a couple more weeks like 11th or 12th week? any comments
