I like to flush 10 days. The whole point is to clean the plant out. The leaves will fade and turn yellow.

Vastly improves the smoke if you are using salt based nutes IME.

Also, plants put on so much bud in flush.

Most people don't realise you can flush for weeks!

To the eye, done mate.

Ideally get a loupe or microscope to check.

I don't flush at all in coco, never been told it has a bad taste.

Flushing doesn't do what flushers think it does according to
https://atrium.lib.uoguelph.ca/xmlu...t7iPF94NGG4A_2cPXI9GnkmgAesrtDw5YMCDKp9u7kgS4
"Flushing was found to be ineffective in removing any significant amount of nutrient from the bud."


Flushing is especially harmful for hydro growers, because it immediately deprives the plants of bud-fattening nutrients.
Soil growers' yields might suffer less from flushing, because soil can hold enough nutrients to stave off the flushing starvation.

While brought up flushing the plants, my mind has been continuously wandering back too...
What other fruit or vegetable do we flush the last week or so of ripening?...hmmm...

I read the last article, hardly damimg of flush!

I tried both ways and I know which I prefer.
