Here are white paper studies showing no differences from flushed or not… …

Plants giving away extra sugars and stuff at night for the microbes thats the real flush that someone can do but even when they tend to keep everything they can by the end of life so people that growing hidroponics i dont know what they flushing out i guess extra nutrient from medium
Do u put your plant into darkness?? Just curious I watch you religiously at one time I kind if thought you were stealth grower keep making the Awesome content
i stand by the fact that you are restricting the plants uptake of any nutrients, forcing the cannibilisation process of the plant, thus tricking into thinking its dying which in turn speeds up the metabolic processes of the plant into producing more thc and getting fatter buds. also the trichomes end up turning cloudier/amber at a propelled rate.
Thanks for this video, and 'explanation'. Are there (do you have) any links to the "science"/scientific studies that you're referencing in regards to senescence or flushing?
I flushed for years and wondered if it really made any difference. I have more recently stopped flushing altogether and just reduce to a much weaker nutrient solution for about a week to support the ripening and the final stages of production of all the good stuff. I think not flushing is better and produces a better end product. My plants yellow or "color" regardless of the fact I'm still giving them some feed. I have never noticed any white/grey ash diffrence or that it burns or tastes any different but I have blown myself away with the quality of buds I now churn out. My tip is when you think it's ready – give it anther week and your buds will looks like supermodel version of the former selves.
So when do you start to let the cannibalization process start? And during that time is it just water? No fulvic or humid acid or compost teas or anything?
You should do a video of when you should turn your lights up and down during flower. If I'm not mistaken increase of light causes more Trichome production but eventually during flower you want to turn the lights down. I personally don't know for sure and would love to learn more about it. Hashtag still learning
Nobody understands that growing for rosin and growing for buds aka smokable flower are two different things. I agree, I would just flush the soil just to get the nutes out of the soil not the plant, That starts senescence Everything you said 100% accurate. I never understood why people think the flush takes nutes out of the plant. This is the info people need!
I don't know about a bad taste without flushing, but a chemical taste without flushing I can understand; it isn't necessarily a bad taste, but most certainly an undesirable one. The difference between chemical taste and non-chemical flavor has always seemed prevalent to me after a good weeks flush.
I usually taste the sap that oozes out of the leaf to know when it's been truly flushed. It should taste like water with no chalky yucky chem taste. Not sure if that's in line with your theory.
This was a fantastic video for me..thank you so much..you explained a very complex process so an idiot like me can understand what happens during synopsis..so why even flush..
Is there a downside to housing all of those strains together? Maybe this is ignorant af, but is there any risk of cross contamination of any kind? Thanks for the video!
I usually agree with you but this is one thing I don't you said it yourself the plant is not up taking the things that needs to live those things are nutrients I can definitely tell the difference between a good flesh and it not on my own plants
How long should I veg my plants or how tall should they be before I throw them into bloom also I have never pH my water cuz I don't have the stuff to do that but I used to but I have already had a grow and it turned out okay
I feel u on the flush myth I have done organic and chemical grows and side by side one plant flushed the other not. There was absolutely no difference or harshness between them. Same strain FYI. I know I will probably get picked apart but this is my experience and opinion. Like and subbed bruda respect ✊

Rx green did a scientific research study 📖
I almost smelled guava and marshmallow when I watched this
Flushing is basically damaging root system and starving the plant. Slowing down growing

Osm growth weed
It makes her eat her reserves or am i wrong .
cummunity haha, genius

Hey Gene,

Buds look kinda small.
Good info. Thanx 4 the lesson, learnt some new words….
Great class !
Subbed
Multi strain grows are the best. I have always enjoyed at least 4 strains just so they are diff ones for diff time of day!!! Great job Greengenes!
Great advice, well explained and all backed up with actual science. Got to be one of the best explanations I have come across on youtube.
Wow!!! I love how you explained the burnt marshmallow. Awesome methapor 👏👏👏
You should do a video of when you should turn your lights up and down during flower.

Was waiting for you to say the 'S' word. Once they get to that point, proper dry and cure will bring out your flavorful harvest.
Thanks for sharing.
Where did you get watermelon Skitz seeds from???
how much light you give this plants at this stage pls? very cool vids
Good video jimmy..excellent information.Always felt the flush thing was hyped fake news like msndnc.

WOW! Almost done! 👍❤
Love, love, love it!

Love popcorn nugs

Fox farm nuts here.
I don't flush in my notill you are absolutely right great info
Hell yeah great info
Very informative 👍

Community
beginner grower here. I just eat up the info you give. Best info ive found explained right. I will look for your videos. Thank you
How much epsom salt do you put in per gallon of fertilizer?
Make it sweat… Ha ha… That skunk will come out..
I usually agree with you but this is one thing I don't you said it yourself the plant is not up taking the things that needs to live those things are nutrients I can definitely tell the difference between a good flesh and it not on my own plants
So it took 7 to 8 weeks to veg and the 9 was all bloom?
How long should I veg my plants or how tall should they be before I throw them into bloom also I have never pH my water cuz I don't have the stuff to do that but I used to but I have already had a grow and it turned out okay
Bro your plants drying should be in darkness not in the grow room
Great content, very well explained
Flushing nitrogen out of the soil through flowering is a good thing.🥔🥝🍐
Nice

Thank you for cutting through all the bullshit!
Aren’t we suppose to dry in darkness? Or thats a myth? Beautiful flowers!
You also dry with lights on.? Pls explain
