Besides harvest should I flush if I have 20% run off each feeding with nutes. Fox farm soil ocean blend fox farm nutes and 5gal smart pots.

Are you referring to a weekly flush during the grow cycle? If so i would only flush if there was a problem.

Just water forathe final 2 weeks, or at least cut way back on the nutes for the last few feeds. I always judge feeding on the amount of fade a plant is showing. Always try to get at least a little yellowing before I chop or I get complaints from the snobbier smokers.

20% run off =20% waste....yeehaw... I very rarely flush...I feed almost every watering at reduced rates...and then just plain water near the end
