If its over ferted with organic nutes it will also not burn right. All black. I have experience with both. Its not a fallacy. It's the truth.

soup style can burn some and TLO soil can over feed and burn as well as burn from teas.not just PH dipping hard for a short time either.they can burn when pushed.but as a rule they wont if used properly.there are tons of misnomers here throughout which is odd too since the knowledge pool here is truly a great thing.the ash test is a sound ,yet basic but trustworthy test especially if you run chems and push them hard too.they'll be around.ppl like to spit out numbers n this n that.its there.is there a number?well its there,with organics you get no more(no force feeding pushing more than the plant needs through feeding time of flowering,early or late)than the plant wants if used decently and fully green or even mostly green has burned thee best around.if you run chems its best imo to run them out naturally as best as you can since thats what chems are taking the place of in the first place was TLO growing and it all got started to get rid of all that crap LMFAO!!Why not increase everything you want in your plant(s) and go more TLO styled growing,saving water,nutes,money and work by nit having to actually flush your plant verses rinsing your soil naturally while you water..? makes the most sense to me.. my grows improved 100% fold especially if your talking about genetics and Amber and acids n oils in the plants since thats nowadays all down to a genetics card deal imo.and weather your TLO or not.you mutate what the plant wants to do early on but feeding it them chemicals and adversely mutating the internal structure and make up and maturing of the compounds are compromised early on.oops LOL! sorry fresh baked n rambling..yes go organic..TLO specificlly.youll be utterly amazed and astounded or even floored literally and figuratively LMFAO :Hookah:

P.S. not trying to argue with anyone,just I see things i feel are personally outdated and need to be re told in a more individual or itemized, manner and so forth.there are much larger pieces to some of these questions and comments imo.just my dealings and readings and growing experiences have shown me otherwise.

On a sidenote: I don´t think a 2 week flush is necessary as after one week of water if you eat a leaf or popcorn bud it will not taste like shit as there are no nutrients present.

Not to open the can of worms too wide Pop, but cleansing isn't about removing magnesium from your plants, it's about removing salts. As you flush salts from your soil and the concentration(read: # of sodium ions) drops lower than that of the vascular system, the ions in higher concentration flow into the lower concentration area. I'm very much interested in reading the articles you're referencing.

Some people water once a week, others every few days, myself due to access can water as and when i like or as the plants needs, . Do you think salt build up is an issue if watering less in volume but more regularly as apposed to total saturation which takes days - a week to dry out

The water always flows out the bottom of the pot or sides and is always sucked back up within 6 hours. I just now dump 2 liters in the pot and be done with it. Does this daily feeding keep salt build up to a minimum meaning even less of a flush would be needed come the finish line.

I've got the week off work and to much time to think )

I'll search for them today. I think it was on Big Buds Magazine site but I'll have to check. I'll post a link when I find this.

That's subjective as your making a supposition based only on visual observation. You think that was the cause but you have no definitive evidence that is what caused the plant matter to burn that way. My understanding is that it burns like that because of high sugar content.

You know, all I'm trying to accomplish is for people to look closer at these phenomenom and find out whats really going on. I'll do my best to go back and find where i read about this. But really, if you think about it, it makes more sense than saying ing conentrations of minerals, etc in a plant, that are measured in parts per million, are to blame.

Salt will not build up if u fed right. I like tang feed every water but I don't water everyday like he does and Ive only had salt build up once and that was my first grow before I knew better.I use organic amd non organic nutes but never go over half stregth

Okay..Flushing my girls at the end of the FLOWER cycle is just a good idea to me. I'll do a full two week flush (normal watering w/o nutrients) to let the girls use up all her left over nutrients in the plant itself. I've added molasses to the "flush", but I really don't see any benefit to it. My current Nirvana Swiss Cheese is a "photo" and I've done a FEED-WATER-WATER wet/dry cycle with a pH of 6.3-6.8 since the beginning. Not adding anything to the WATER cycle. Full strength Recipe of Success with Liquid KoolBloom at the FEED. The irrigation is a 20%-30% runoff. This Swiss Cheese out of the two other Swiss Cheese grows seems to have bigger bud sites than the other grows. I'll have to go back to older pictures of the last two S/C grows to really see if it's just me or there is a difference in just keeping this grow K.I.S.S.

Feeding the girls right to the last week or two before harvest to me is a waste of nutrients.

That's what I like about AFN. We all have our ways of growing. I'll take some info with heart or just leave it alone.

I've followed the Muddy Method of harvesting..Photos and Autos. I haven't been disappointed with the results.

Gotta go and WATER my girl now.......She's got another four weeks then I'll see about starting her "Flush".

Great ideas out there. I learned a lot from this thread..Good work AFN.

I didn't want to get into this, but alas, I must, lol.

Two things

First, Organic, if you are indeed growing organically, is flushing even necessary?

I have smoke plants coming out of the ground, and they were fine as long as chemicals, or otherunatural compounds are not used.

Second, Once, I had some Blackberry Kush, Black Powder Kush, and some Jack Ass Auto's in a tent. They were all yellowing. I had some PM issues, so I put them ooutside, and they yellowing went away completely (other than the leaves that were too far gone), to a solid dark green. This was towards the end of flowering.

So could that issue of yellowing/dying off be something indoor growers deal with more than outdoor growers?

Any way, great thread, you got peeps thinking.
