I flush for 1 reason. I basically learned to grow weed from reading this forum.(and youtube videos) And most of the forum says flush. Or at least it was the consensus 2 years ago when I started. When I started I based all my decisions on what the majority seemed to agree on. If there are multiple ways of doing things, most people chose the same way. That's the way I did mine. Except de-foliation, I'm not starting that war again. Nobody agrees on that, do what you want.
Flush, flush, flush! We are in deep water, there is no buffer like in dirt. Do you want to join the white ash club? That means a clean smoke, no added anything. It also ensures that your flower has used all of its stored energy.
Why not give the roots a wash? Not giving your plant a flush is like letting a kid play out in the mud and saying it’s okay to come to dinner without washing up. Flushing is key for quality product. If you smoke your final product I wish you can compare between flushed and not flushed Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
Do fruits and vegetables get flushed in nature? Nope. It's broscience. It sounded like a good idea, but science has shown it does nothing. Here's another study from Guelph University. They didn't do a taste test but it showed no noticable difference in yield or the bud chemically. https://atrium.lib.uoguelph.ca/xmlui/handle/10214/12125
