Flushing Roots With Pure Water, Possible Improvement
    #211294 - 04/02/09 12:38 AM (14 years, 11 months ago)

During the flushing stage, how about the idea for soil bound plants of gently washing off the soil with water, and placing them in a DWC system with an air stone for the flush with distilled or reverse osmosis water?

This might add to the stress factor, but in the final weeks, you WANT to be stressing the plants to produce the most resin. It seems like this would be the more efficient way of truly providing them pure water, flushing faster, and burning up the rest of the stored nutrients. Perhaps this would be different in a mostly organic soil setup though? This theoretically would put all plant energy into the buds in the final days...

P.S: In hydroponics, the same thing is done during flushing, do people notice a difference by this?

Why? Standard flushing works just fine. Thats a bunch of extra trouble for nothing.
