Flushing????

Healthy plants stay healthy when you know what you are doing and why you are doing it. Wanting to flush a pot is not a social commentary on a gardeners inability to find a balance, but it is a step that is necessary as a result of the ingredients in the nutrients building-up in your soil over time.
Perhaps one should know what they are talking about, before attempting to slam another's technique or skill level. :wtf:
Wait till the ladies need watering. Flush with two to three times the volume of the pot, with clean, properly ph'd water, then let the soil dry before watering again. Skip a nutrient day if necessary.
I use the Fox Farms line of nutes which is notorious for salt build-up...but is the best nutrient regimin I've found for cannabis. Once a month I flush, then in the last half-gallon per pot, I add some Soil Syrup at recommended dilution.
