What did you Accomplish Today

[RosterMan]

dunno who grew it or what was added to the weed to make it grow but I'd not smoke any...people don't care about most commercial pot...besides, if grown correctly I don't see how a man could make any bank at those prices...I was getting 400 a zip when I grew for profit...those days are long gone...

You were also risking a lot more jail time

 

[Kindbud]

Are you sending us taste test samples so we can all vote on the two final products?

Maybe a select few of the group I will send a #1 and #2 and not tell which is which.... THEN we will see which is the better method for taste quality. The select few taste testers will be those who I feel comfortable sending a few #1-#2 buds too so Sub you want to be 1 of the voters?? Already got a few picked out in my mind mostly just those who Im following

#9 Drifting!!!! He just posted on sick plants waiting for him to reply to message and thread answer.... He's been on here about as long as me and haven't seen him for awhile but good to see some people I used to know when I first started the passion of growing the plant we all love

Pretty much a worthless day for me. To hot. Will try again tomorrow.

Yea I didn't do much today backs been bothering me alot lately. But in a couple months I'll start a thread on flush or no flush with a poll for the testers. And I'll send messages to the few I want to be testers will end up only being 5-7. Odd number so no ties lol but I'm about to clock out I'm excited about this experiment with testers that will prove that KindBuds right

Can you please expand on why not flushing and using salt based nutrients is a bad idea?

Because a build up of salt is bad!!! Have you ever put a salt block on the root or next to a tree it will kill the tree if left there for more then the hunting season leave a salt block on the root of a tree it will be dead in a year or 2

 

[Kindbud]

To much salt for people plants animals is a bad thing for any living thing it just is and with the amount of nutrients we pour on our plants flushing would just take some of the salt build up and break it down and dilute it if you get what I'm saying I personally use two to three teaspoons a gallon every watering on my plants and by the end of the year there's a good salt build up I flush for that reason

 

[Kindbud]

Copied but here...
Salts absorb and bind tightly with water, preventing roots from absorbing water. The salt can even pull water from the plant, creating a drought-like condition. At higher concentrations, sodium will compromise the absorption of essential nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, and potassium.

 

[Kindbud]

Flushing outdoor plants and indoor plants is smart especially when you use as much nutrients as I do.... Outdoors it's not that as big of a deal because of rain and the ground will absorb some of the salt build up but still I like to flush them a little extra then amount I water usually last week if no rain has luckily not fallen I will do 1.5 × times the amount of water so I give my plants 1.5 gallons a piece right now probably be 2 by end of the month so I'll flush with 4 gallons just how I do it and never had anything but good reviews some have smoked what I grew back in the day and said it was some of the best and wanted more when I grow mostly for personal smoke and maybe help out friends with smoke that's quality and not 80$ a quarter smh

CONCLUSION
In a first of its kind study, Rx Green Technologies evaluated the effects of flushing period on yield, potency, terpenes, mineral content, and taste characteristics of Cannabis flower. Overall, the length of the flushing period did not impact yield, potency, terpenes, or taste characteristics of Cannabis flower. Taste test results indicated a trend toward improved flavor and smoke quality with the zero-day flush. While there were no significant differences in nutrient content, there was a trend toward increased iron and zinc in flower flushed for 14 days. The results of this trial indicate that there is no benefit to flushing Cannabis flower for improved taste or consumer experience.

Plant Botanist and ppl who have actually tested flushing say it doesn't do ****,,but what do they know.
I feed my girls and fatten them up till I harvest. To each his own. That's what makes the world go around. Taste like weed to me.

Sure I’m always up for a good taste test

I have always thought for yrs that not flushing gave weed a black ash.
I have since found that if you do not dry the bud enough before the cure it will do this and nothing to do with flush.
