while im at it, can i just check, "flushing" is just pouring a large amount of normal water through the soil right?

The main stock holds the main cola. It's the top part of the plant where the antioxidants that control most of the plants growth and cycle are found as well.

Flushing is the process of trying to remove the nutrients from the plant to improve taste and speed up the curing process. In my opinion it is a requirement at harvest time. I prefer to use a commercial flusher product in place of just Ph adjusted water.

the cola sounds quite important then. is it important to keep the cola well lit, as at the moment i have put my lights around the plant to get some light to the smaller leaves inside, the top gets plenty of under-light tho.
gonna start 12/12 in a few days.hee hee
Is there anything else i should know about these here antioxidant magooglies.
