  1. I'm new to this
    I have a question. I flush my plants on the 9 week so, I can harvest in two weeks. I used clearex 5 gallon to flush. A week past I only feed once water. Then I kinda panic and flush it again( panic because I thought the clearex had nutrients) just water 6.7 ph. Now it's just in shock been 2 week. Now my question is the nutrients I use and the way I flush it and hasn't use up the water do you guys think the nutrients are gone??
    And the other question is when you flush does a day counts when the plant drinks up the water to refill??

  2. Relax dude a flush is a flush....the flush dislodges the nute form the rootzone, it don't have too flush it out of the pot, but nice if it does,
    and no bother to the 2nd question either ...relax
     
  3. As far as I understand flush solutions lock out nutes in the soil by bonding with them. Just running water through the soil rinses them out, so they both work. Water is usually the cheapest method so it's what I use.
     
    I'm not sure what you are asking in your last two questions
     
  4. What I mean is in the 2nd Question, when you flush doesn't it count as a day. when the plant drinks up all the water?
    Cause usually it take up to week or 2 so the nuts gets up the plant right? But If the plant got shock for week or 2 would it be fine to harvest. I don't want any nuts in the plant.

    I still have no idea what you are asking. "When you flush, doesn't it count as a day" is throwing me, I just don't know what that means.
     
    You can't take out any nutes that the plant has taken up, that's a one way road. But you can rinse out the soil so the plant cannot take more up, this causes the plant to run low on the materials it needs to make food. So it takes some from the leaves and moves it to the bud. This is why the leaves yellow
     
  7. Ok, I think I understand. thank you. I just hope there's no nutrients inside.is there way to tell? I hear if there nutrients the ash well turn black and will extinguish faster when smoked.

  8. I don't know anything about that, but I wouldn't worry too much. As long as you haven't overdosed the plants in the first place flushing isn't that much of a big deal. Just don't add nutes in the last couple of weeks and you won't go far wrong. And when you do water the soil slosh plenty through with a good amount of run off 
     
  9. The point in flushing is to remove the nutrients from the soil, so they stop going into the plant and your herb doesn't taste like nutrients. 
    Simply flush two weeks before harvest and use nothing but water.
     
    Your plant should like like this when you chop.
