thnks also, how do i flush them?
You need to sort your light cycle out, its all good giving them 24 hour light. But them plants need rest.
Bang them on a 18/6.
is that true stinky attic do plants need rest?
No.
Not necessary.
I mean, people will argue about this based on the krebs/citric acid cycles of photosynthesis, but cannabis is fine to grow 24 h. Other types of plants WILL suffer.
Hell, I've been growing mine under 24h as long as I've been growing.
Oh and ezmack, flush your plants with 3x their container volume of pH adjusted plain water with no nutes.
Stinkyattic just a quick question re flushing - if you saturate your soil with 3 x the size of pot in plain water won't it over-saturate the soil and possibly drown the roots? Or do you wait for it to work through all the soil inbetween flushes?Quote:

PS! Can you flush your plants at any stage in their development (eg mine are now into 4 weeks of flowering..)
Yes and no... That is why you need to make sure your soil has enough perlite in it, to really take aggressive flushing (among other things). It makes the water drain out much much faster, so the roots don't drown.
But if your soil is heavy and either too clay or too organic matter, yeah, you can have issues.
And obviously if you have no drain holes that is a problem.
And you can flush any time. But I would then give a little weaker nute solution on the next watering.
