How are they defining flush?
The removal of nitrogen from the diet is the only flush I ever do. Yeah, dousing your plants with water like a fire suppression system has never really done anything.
Interesting research, although keep in mind it was done by a nutes company lol. Non-biased, I’m sure
I currently grow in super soil, so I don’t flush, but this is still very interesting.
I use foxfarms trio on some grows. On others I use supersoil and teas. Yes all nutrient lines have salts. Synthetic fertilizers are more readily available and show quicker results. Natural fertilizers come from animal, plant, sea water etc. They by them selves are not readily available to plants. You have to have microorganisms on the soil breaking them down to useable sources.
I dont fall for organic or all natural etc etc. Cyanide is organic and natural after all.
If you amend your soil properly and it is full of living organisms you can get away with almost no nutrients added. The growth may be slower but the quality and ease of use makes it worth it.
Very interesting discussion!! One thing that bothered me about the article was that he didn't say how much salt was left in the buds when he mentioned that "Overall, there was no significant change in the mineral content of cannabis flower as a result of different flushing treatments."
So now I'd like to know what is left over in the buds...
