sorry, but don't call yourself a 'perfectionist' yet ... you are over-fertilizing like crazy, and where in the world did you get the idea of flushing with HOT water ? :wtf: ...
I am NOT trying to ridicule or embarrass you ... it's your plants, you may do as you please, but inexperienced growers will see the mistakes you are 'getting away with', and try to duplicate it ... it is a WEED, and tends to thrive 'DESPITE' what you're doing, and not because of 'what' you are doing ... regardless, good luck with your grow, and don't be so resistant to following the normal grow methods, they have become routine, for a reason :thumbsup:
