i was interested what other pepole are doing to flush there plants? i recently smoked my freinds bud that was flushed for 4 weeks before harvest. this was a controlled grow with clones. 2 plants 1 1/2 weeks before harvest and 2 plants 4 weeks before harvests. Massive differance the taste is soo pure compared to the 1 1/2 week plants. also test on smooking technique joint, vap, and waterpipe. Joint hands down!! As far as yeild not much of a differance. What are you guys doing by the way used earth juice products at the recommended dose.

I don't get too obsessed with flushing ... if I see an obvious nutrient overdose, I flush well ... otherwise, I just stop using nutes two weeks before harvest, and give it a mild flush a couple times in the last week ... :smokin:

I stop feeding nutrients 12 days before harvest, and I flush that last week here and there as I see fit

I don't flush plants these days, but I've tried it on a few crops. I just can't tell the smoking difference between those I flushed and those I didn't.
Plants store about 1-2 wks worth of nutes. I'd be hesitant to stop nutes 4 weeks before harvest. I think that if I stopped nutes in wk 4, plants would be looking fairly deficient by wk 8 (or more likely, by wk6). I'd expect an associated yield reduction.
If you want to flush, a max of 2 weeks is probably closer to the mark.
