I grow organic in soil under the sun (albeit in a greenhouse, I am in the UK and it rains) and wouldn't dream of leaching or flushing. I stop all water supplements about week four of flowering and don't water at all in the last week to ten days, depending on the sun. Even when I used to grow hydro indoors I didn't flush as such, I just swapped to straight water to top up the main tank for the last week or so. Flushing is just an extra chore, makes no real difference to your buds. Simplify whenever you can.
I always wondered about this. Do they die and stop eating on there own or dose the medium run out of nutrients after 3 or 4 months? I’m using last years good quality soil with some eco thrive life cycle and eco thrive biosis and fresh organic chicken poo and blood bone and fish. I top up with biobizz fish mix and grow and algamatic and grow and bloom together for flower
It all sounds reasonable. So to stop watering a week or weeks before harvest would it be ok to cover the ground beneath the plant as far out as its extended branches to keep rain water out?
I dont have to starve it or flush them they change color automatically on their own if its going through its cycle. I agree sith this cause this is what ALL the plants ive ever grown have done on their own indoors even
I hang my tomato plants upside down in an old stick tobacco barn in late fall before the first hard frost. The green tomatoes ripen slowly, and some will rot but usually have tomatoes until Thanksgiving with this method. I agree with the statement that you can't wash something out of the bud by pouring water over the roots.
If you're not flushing or leeching you better let the plant use up all the nutes in the soil. I know what black ash, headaches and harsh smoke is from a bad product still being fed till harvest.
Aaah so I'm not the only one that sees some resemblance!?!. When I first started watching cannabis cultivation videos I had a difficult time telling these two apart.
You should always flush your plants regardless. The reason is not what many think though. The phloum and zylum ( the tubes inside the stem) move nutrients.. they remain raw nutrients till the plant transpires them to its ends and then used the nutrients to build upon itself( to grow) . If you dint flush them then these nutrients will move into the buds while drying creating harsh smoke. You flush so that what's inside the entirety of your plant is r.o water, even using tap water vs r.o you will notice a subtle difference, that difference is calcium and magnesium, not quite as detrimental as unprocessed n.p.k "Orfanic" also is irrelevant in this context.. your plant doesn't care where it's not.p.k. comes from just that it has it, nothing against organic growers, but reality is still reality regardless . So yes, flush.
How do you know howmuch nutrition is in your soil since it's organic, the soil will always make nutrients. That's the point of living soil. Even if u flush it, the microbes will start working on new nutrition, and in the mean time your plant will be eating nutrition from its own leaves. So technically in living soil u will always have "nutes" just my thoughts
Today I think I finally understand why flushing might be a thing. My tap water is 300-600 ppm of TDS and a p.h. of 7.5 or higher. I would NEED to use rainwater or something to reduce that mineral concentration because otherwise the same limescale we see in our water cookers we would see in our soil. And I can't just add citrus extract and flush out that cocktail into the sink like with my cooker.
No your not there is no sincere that says flushing is good on the contrary the only since says there is no significant evidence flushing improves anything that's the only test done .... Wake up
Plants don't starve when u flush. When done at the right time the plants are left with there internal reserves to finish but flushed so they don't take up more nutrients from the medium
Exactly. Specifically if your water in the phloum andzylum of the plant contains un processed nutes then they WILL migrate into the buds as they are drying.. if it's just water in there then no trace elements will be left behind to effect t your smoke. What I've said here is 100% accurate and scientificly proven
Great talk gyes always a great show 🔥✌️💨💨
Great info I don’t want to use my good water flushing my organic plants #TeamNoFlush
Nothing better than listening to the ladies with your eyes, and having a good mental bank of possible issues and solutions.
You guys Rock always great info! I would love to come check Build A Soil sometime!
I'm in organic with aerated tea's and I ain't flushing but I do stop top dressing at the end

So you dont flush the weed plants when using organic fertiliser?

What is the the best ppm 1 month before harvest till the end?
@@redfox4024 I like 500-1000..water only till done.
Good advice happy not to flush
Good to see everyone else catching up lol
This is why I only hydro just change your water reservoir . And at least use a Brita water filter
Great info guys. Buildasoil w great comments!
I'm in dwc, I wait until I seed the first sign of fade and then switch to my flush nutrient, even though it may take more than a week to amber up.
nope

When and what the fuck is fall and Thanksgiving?... Can you speak in months or plain English instead? 👍
exactly
you can certainly pour water over the buds though lol, i do wash the larf anyway because of nute splashes
After you flush.. do you leave anything so the ladies dont get starving..?
Plants has enough left
If you're not flushing or leeching you better let the plant use up all the nutes in the soil. I know what black ash, headaches and harsh smoke is from a bad product still being fed till harvest.
Flushing is useless
@@AdolfoMussolini-wx4ykexactly. Even studies have shown this now
💯✅💯✅
Very informative!
Do you pluck the yellow leafs?
If they fall of with just a simple pull yes. If not leave them
No !!!
💚👍
Oh, twin brothers 🤩❤️

You dont flush organic weed.

we're talking ORGANIC bro
How do you flush an organic grow
@@nobonesaboutit7639 You dont flush weed period.

the short answer is NO 😁
But the proper answer is yes.. see my above response.
@@MrDmadness your above response doesn't apply to organic.
@@nobonesaboutit7639 it applies to every single plant bud, im not giving you bro science im giving you certified information from a licensed botanist.

Flushing is useless.
Plants don't starve when u flush. When done at the right time the plants are left with there internal reserves to finish but flushed so they don't take up more nutrients from the medium
Internal....that means inside..... Would you not start like that before becoming a full?

Bro thinks he has anything to contribute while hes just yapping
Flushing to me means stop watering so the ph can rise which helps p to get absorbed while it dries out and less acidic.
Jeremy is the goat everything he says I experienced u truly gotta listen to the plant 🪴 💯
