Hey everyone im just curious, when should you start flushing your plants during flowering? I hear if you start about 2-3 weeks before harvest the bud is better. Any thoughts?
When to flush?

I flush after taking a shit, plants do not require leeching unless overfed. Now hang on for a 30 page thread on flushing.

Oh man, I thought the same thing when I read that post "when you see floaters". Must be a Friday thing.
Spud you are getting close to harvest just like me. I'm not flushing because it's my opinion and those that garden similar to my methods, that it will provide no benefit. I am gardening in organic soil with organic nutes. I can't remember your soil and feed, so I won't advise what you should do. But I will read what others are going to post.

2-3 weeks of flushing is Awful! Thats two or three weeks of starving your girls, not to mention during their most important time! Last few weeks is when they pack on the weight. I start knocking my feeding ppm down over the last week or two. And the last water they get is a VERY mild mild mild feeding. Maybe 200-400 ppm?

Spud you are good with organic nutes. Its the more chemical nutes that require flushing. As said you need nutrients until nearly the bitter end. I flush with a gallon of water with 1 tbsp. blackstrap molasses in the last 7-10 days.

I agree with not flushing. I judt lower towards the end of bloom.in hydro
But I did flush in the past, and ive flushed for two weeks a time or two. I actually got that idea from a hightimes artical. The guy was in Hawaii and he used only water for the last 2-3 weeks, n swore by it.... hightimes lol
I have to admit they finished up nicely when I flush for the last week. They just dont need much food in the last week/weeks
Helps if u havr yoyr genetic dialed in
