There is a vast diference between watering with plain water for the last 2-3 weeks of flowering & doing a complete flush. Because soil retains so much in the way of nutrients your herb shouldn't really need any more nutes in the last few weeks.

Yes I think alot of people misunderstand this to be the same thing. I like to do more lite feeding in my peat mix and taper off at the, well still trying to do it.. :joint:
Propbably too much tapering off on this one :pointlaug

continue to adjust pH?

continue to adjust pH?

I'm in the last week of flower with my indoors grow and started flushing one week ago...the leaves of many of the plants are still fairly green, so I wish I'd started two weeks ago. (However, I've read that Caramella tends to stay green, so maybe it's strain-specific.)

I still adjust the pH of my water even though I'm not using ferts now. My question: is this unnecessary? I figured the plants might still use whatever ferts remain in the soil--hence the adjustment.
