New Grower Flushing

[gregie420]

So i have heard a couple things, if you use all organic you dont have to flush then some people say no matter what to flush. I use all nutes and soil, should i flush? If yes when do you flush autos? thanks much

My first grow was with regular plants and even though i used all organic i still flushed but don't know if it was in vane or what (figured i"d throw it out there, this is only my second grow and first with autos)

I'm new to autos (on my first grow), but have experience with photos. I'm planning on flushing my autos for about the same time (10-14 days before anticipated chop down date). I also use products, and still always flush. Never haven't flushed so guess I don't have anything to compare it to, but trust me brother, you wanna flush them babies. Better safe than it having a negative effect on quality of your crop. Considering using some GH Flora Kleen on this grow, but might just use ph'd h20.

The vast majority flush. Rosenthal recommends flushing as do most pros. Some use just PHed water and others use an initial flush product followed by water when needed. Flushing is just watering with a good run-off, initially, and thereafter regular watering.

Most like to start two weeks out. Yet a week or so is ok. Some flush is better than none. Even unflushed is not a disaster, but, you will notice the difference if you smoke. Plants will just drink so much towards the end anyway.

cool deal, i have humboldt royal flush, bought it because it was cheaper then ff sledgehammer. Worked good on the reg photos, bud came out smelling and tasting nice and citrusy, burned great. So i'll flush about 2 weeks before harvest. thanks guys
