How much water do I use to flush?

[Foreverhigh]

Hey guys,

I am about to start flushing my plants and I was wondering how much water do I have to use for my 10lt and 6lt pots? I ve been watering every other day with 3.5 lt and 2.5 lt when feeding with nutes..

Save the water ...flushing is a myth....do a search here....i have flushed and not flushed...no difference..do vegetable farmers flush before harvest? Now that I've said this there will be others who disagree and i respect their opinion....whatever works for you---Placebo effect can be powerful....have fun--you only live once.

I've flushed and I've not flushed, Never made a difference as far as I could detect.

+1 - what those guys said.

You cant remove nutrients from inside a plant. Flushing works for removing salt build up on roots if needed. Facts.

Thanks for the replies guys.. So what about the taste of the buds and the so called "harshness" on the throat ? 1st grow here..

That's 50% genetics and 50% dry/cure technique. IMHO, FWIW, YMMV etc.

Come back and ask questions. I know when I first started, I expected AFN to be like many other forums (both cannabis-related and other) and found out quickly that this is a different place. You'll see growers with years of experience helping the new grower and even asking questions themselves. Very cool community.

BS-free zone. None of that "my Sativa can beat up your Sativa" or "I've been pouring goat piss on my plants at week 3 for 35 years and you're an idiot if you don't do it too" nonsense - or damn little of it.
