It is a good point that when growing outdoors naturally, you cannot flush your plants. Ah well, something to talk about at least

I am not sure where you got that quote from but my best advice is to not read anymore from that person....They have no clue about growing quality medical marijuana.

Flushing is always done to remove the excess nutrients from the plant and to force the plant to use up stored chlorophyll.

Stop feeding N the last 2 weeks before you start to flush.
Zandor Reviewed by Zandor on . To flush or not to flush before harvest.... Sorry if this is the wrong section, it just seems to be where most posters hang out! Anyway, I was reading various boards and there seems to be a mixed opinion of the final flush before harvest if you grow organically in soil. I had always believed that a final flush was necessary. However, I've been reading some opinions that this does not allow the plant to reach its full potential and that it makes no sense to starve the plant and force it to use the stored nutrients in the leaves.
