When to flush?

Hey guys!

This strain is a 6 week flower. Which is about right on track for yalls guesstimate on finish time. I’m on week 4 of flower. Should I start flushing? To flush do I just switch to PH’d water only?

* i’d say it’s about 10-20% red pistils.

Thank you!

Looking good so far, 4 more weeks I think. Flushing is frowned upon here, it has no actual merit. Good growing...

All I can say is.....WTF.
Shaking my head in disbelief.

Uhhh?

Woot woot. The daily flush has arrived. That plant has a month to go if not more. Keep feeding...but in small amounts.

Flush to correct or attempt to correct an imbalance or issue in your medium DURING the grow.

Flushing away the magical mystery build up inside the plant come harvest time is not really necessary and could rob a plant of finishing to its fullest potential

Yeah PH and everything seems good. So I’ll keep feeding until the end. Run off PPM is about 800.

Yup they look done, flushity flush and choppity chop.

Perhaps new members should have to sign a no flush agreement? It's not gonna stop!

Lol so much sarcasm

If it's yellow, let it mello.
if it's brown, flush it down.

You paid good money for those nutrients. Who's telling you to flush?
You wouldn't want your farmer to flush the nutrients from your vegetables. Just saying.

Yeah, 2 more weeks and that will be fire lol

When the vegetables and fruits are done they flood the fields for 2 weeks before harvest. You didn't know?

Facts.

Here's some properly flushed cranberries at harvest time.

I went from a deformed little seedling with my first auto grow to some actual bud. I’m pretty stoked with the results so far! I appreciate all the BS and advice.

Figured I’d throw in the beginning and another current picture for fun. Also the set up I’ve been working with.

You got some good BS and some good advice and you also took it all with good spirits. Honestly, flushing threads usually don't go this well and often end in flames...or cat pictures (that was cool)

Great compact setup you got there. I always find it impressive when someone can pull anything from a small space like that. Nice job
