Flushing

[vasq4932]

when do u flush your plants. and do u use regular water without anything at all or do you still use the ph down thanks

first flust mild solution 1.0-1.3 ec, then second flush with just pure water. yes ph should be same as what you where using before.

if you use water with no nuts in it you will not flush, as the salt in the medium has nothing to stick to. so therefore mild solution is the way to flush.

id say flush every 2-3 weeks depending on salt buildup. thats why checking run off helps!

I no longer flush at all . . . . simply use fresh well water for 2 weeks before harvest; plants use up all the nutes.

i agree wih Lucky 7

ph down is useless if you use soil and good nutes like hesi (ph down included). correct me if i m wrong...

You didnt mention what type of medium or anything.
If you grow aero or something you might not need to ph your flush water, but I wouldnt go pouring tap straight out of the faucet down your coco...
