    Flushing

    Hey everyone. I've run into an issue over the last few days. My buds have gotten way to heavy for the stalks to support them and the branches have started to buckle. I've staked them and started a flush 2 days ago. My question is what's the least amount of time recommend for the flush? I'm growing hydroponicly

    Some don't flush at all! I'd recommend 7 to 14 days but sometimes you got to cut it short.
    BTW I don't grow hydro.

        Hey Since it’s the final flush I wouldn’t hurry it. Last thing you want is fertilizer taste. I go a week plus and I flush every 10 days or so in 80 litre system.

          SirSmksAlot If you were growing in soil, then you’d need a week+ to flush. However, since you mentioned that you’re growing in hydro, it's fine to flush 3 days before they come down.

            Your ppm meter should let you know when its just plain water,sometimes ive had to drain and fill again after 3 days to get plain water.I guess this depends on root size and how big the system is.

              Ya my root systems are huge. They pretty much completely fill the 5 gallon pails. For some reason I never thought to use my ppm meter.

                I agree with cannabliss 3 day final flush works for me, I will go longer if time permits. I flush 3 times a day for 3 days or more. Regular water Phed. Good luck.
