To Flush or Not To Flush?

This has been argued over & over again.
I used to believe you had to flush or it would end up tasting bad.
I don't believe that anymore.

You can't force the plant to uptake more nutrients than it needs too.
You can deprive it of nutrients.
A healthy plant will produce more than an unhealthy plant.

The reason I think many can tell the difference between chem-hydro & organic soil, is because during the grow the plant had more than just NPK in the soil, while many hydro growers only focus on the major nutrients (NPK) and forget about minor & micro nutrients, enzymes, beneficial bacteria, etc...

I still flush (water with plain water) but it's just so I can re-used my medium. There's still plenty of nutes available for the plant to feast on.
