In my experience, with some strains of weed, it does make a difference if you flush in what you taste after curing. I had a friend that did a side by side of flush one plant and not the other and the difference was noticeable. That was only one experience but it makes sense that if you only have water in the leaves, it will evaporate and leave only plant, not any chemicals that are potentially dangerous if ingested or inhaled.

I can understand the other side of the argument, somewhat, so I just chalk it up to personal preference. Do what works for you and that is exactly what makes growing marijuana an art and not a science !

I've lived in a solar powered home with a composting toilet. Not pumping 100 gallons of water a day to flush with saves a lot of electricity!

i guess a self composting toilet is the way to go then ?

As a sidit were note to my post, I'm writing a letter to Greg Green in hopes of discussing this with him or another plant biologist, its long past time to shed some light on this myth!

RIGHT ON POP! I would love to see a guest texter as it were come online at a specified date/time to discuss topics the texter is expert on. Perhaps even a series of talks from the breeders here at AFN?

So all this talk of flush or not to flush has got me thinking about things. I have five plants on the go at the moment, four of which are the same strain, so just to satisfy my own and I'm sure others curiosity I'm prepared to flush two of them and not flush the other two.
I'll feed them exactly the same throughout the grow but the only difference will be the last seven to ten days or so.
I'm not doing this to prove who's right and who's wrong as we all have different growing styles and ideas, we do what works for us at the end of the day, but I am open to trying new things as I believe it's a constant learning curve (unless your names doublejj, he is a master of photos)
So no arguments as to who's right and who's wrong this is just a bit of scientific fun and I'll enjoy smoking the end results for comparrison

Cool! I guess I missed any arguing. How will you measure the differences? How will you flush?

I guess the only way to tell the difference is in the smoking of the final product. I'm not doing this to settle any arguments or take sides etc, leave that for the playground, this is purely my curiosity at work. I liken it to which way is the correct way to stir your tea, clockwise or anticlockwise.......
Two plants I'll feed right up to the end say a couple of days before harvest and the other two I'll keep an eye on the trichs as usual and when I figure there's about ten days to go they'll get just ph'd water until harvest.
In the final test I'll be looking for cleanness of taste and smell after it's had a proper cure of course.
I've smoked some street weed here that leaves a real metallic taste in your mouth as well as a tingly feeling in your lips, so I'll be interested to see if a proper cure is the answer or whether flushing does make any difference.
Any input or suggestions as to something I may have missed
