Ok so here goes, Flushing a plant by cutting a plant at the very
bottom and putting it in a bucket of ph'd water.

kinda like you would do with a christmas tree, Its just a wierd
thought that popped into my head, but it seems, if a christmas
tree takes on water, then why wouldnt pot plants do the same???

Maybe its stoopid but what do you all think.
I have a plant outside and its in the ground. I cant really flush it
and i thought this might work!

NEw invention or what ?? should i get a patened on this shit???

But, if you cut off the bottom you would lose all the roots and the plant might die. Just feed it water only for the last couple of weeks before harvest and it should flush out the nutes

im talking about giving it only water for the last two weeks,
then harvesting then letting it sit in a bucket of water for a couple
days then hanging it upside down and and drying it out.

I think doing that could lead to ALOT of problems, including mold.

Without roots the plant is unable to take up much water. I'm not sure how effective this technique would be. Like all new ideas, there's only one way to find out: Try it.

The only problem I see with that is the excess water in the plant when you begin the drying process.

After I flush I try to let the plants get pretty dry before I harvest. I do this for two reasons: (1) They will dry out faster and less likely to grow mold (2) The theory of can plants producing trics to help protect from drought, thus getting the plant to produce more resins right before I chop.

thats true i never thought of the resin thing
