In this thread; The info that Zandor posted is the best info you will get. Maybe you don't need to cure you Meds for 8 months...Don't know who posted that, but Zandor does know what he is talking about. Do not be misled.

I do agree that you learn from experimenting to learn for yourself. To flush or not to flush; And what to flush with is the personal choice of the grower. Period. There is no right or wrong. IN organic soil; I do not flush. I do reduce or stop adding nutrients with 2-3 weeks to go in order to allow plant to used stored nutrients (this is why leaves yellow at finish)

In hydro I feel flushing is a good option in order to make sure the plant has less stored nutrients when harvested. Good Luck
