looking great. nice to see how light you're feeding and still having success.
a buddy of mine is an agronomist and a farmer (and a weed hobbyist) and he broke down some theory for me - you're proving him right. basically, he claims that there's no real value in feeding more than strictly necessary. a plant can take up as much as its genetics allow, no more, so feeding as light as possible is always the way to go (so you've got tacit approval from a real, large scale farmer). that said, it does mean that flushing at the end might not be the best idea.
apparently, the habit comes from commercial agriculture, where they often feed slightly high to ensure that every plant is adequately fertilized, and then water with fert-less water towards the end because the medium is fertilized enough and there's no need for extra feed. with plants on a good, light feed, you may not even need to flush (and flushing may mean the last week or so of the grow will have the plant underproducing). he claims that the entire flushing to remove chemicals thing is ridiculous (which makes sense - plants don't eat nutrition, they absorb it, there's no digestive system - the molecular breakdown happens in the soil).
something worth looking into and considering before you hit that stage - might mean squeezing out a few extra grams.

you and @pop22 should have a chat he doesn't flush his plants I haven't flushed my last 3 after a good cure no one whos sampled it can tell the difference have a good old rep slap for the info

thanks! it just seems unlikely to me that cannabis is so different from any other plant that what works with fruit won't work with it. i've never had a tomato, regardless of feed schedule, taste like fertilizer, and flavor is obviously more pronounced in fruit than in marijuana.

Nice to see someone else has read the same sort of info i have.i see people say nice dark green leaves means a healthy plant but its just to much N and hence claw and other problems.also this 20/4 16/8 light schedule thing is rubbish if you ask me,cannabis plants are c3 plants so only collect co2 when its light not dark,c4 plants collect co2 in the light and dark,the only reason to do different times is electricity cost or 12/12 photo period plants.i also agree with no flushing because even if you do flush its not getting rid of any nutes because its still gets them from the leaves this is why i am not flushing this grow.and this rubbish with ph i have never ever checked my ph in 3 grows and the only problem i have had is cal/mag def.all the other problems i see are overwatering or over feeding or ph problems.i just used common sense with the ph rubbish because nothing in nature or grown(cannabis apart) by us is ever phed.i read somewhere that the plant/trees roots change the ph of the feed to suit what nutes they need at that time and constantly change the ph to keep things balanced so when i see people with problems i think its because they are keeping the ph at a certain lvl and dont let the plant do its thing
