To flush or not to flush organic grows

First time grower. Plants are about done all auto flower. All organic grow. Heard different theories on flushing or not flushing. Thoughts? All replies greatly appreciated.

The only thing “flushing” does is save on your nutes. There are no benefits for the plants.

:thinking: thinking about it I guess I do flush in a way :thinking: I top dress for the last time like a 4-6 weeks before they are done, I only feed my plants 2-4 times throughout a grow

That’s organic though ayye… and there are still nutes in the soil. To a degree “this is the way…” that’s the process. Just let it ride out… makes me question what the op means by flushing if it does it naturally…

flushing in the traditional way serves no real purpose, other than conserving your nutes. Which is fine, I’m just saying it doesn’t effect the outcome of the final product. The fade is still something to behold, but unnecessary.

Just harvested this lady. No flush unless its poker or the toilet.

Flushing is more geared towards heavy ‘salt’ users. Trying to load the plant past its absorption point. If not flushed you can produce some real shitty weed. The weed that simply won’t burn in a pipe due to all the chemicals remaining.

We grow 100% organic in living soil. Only feed with top dressing and freshly brewed teas. I feed a tea about once per week. Other than that it’s only water. The last week or so I skip the tea and run only water.

All the living organisms in the soil are making nutrients consistently. The worms are munching on the decaying cover crop and are producing worm castings. Overtime creating an all natural worm casting teat within the soil.

There is already enough nutrients stored in the soil to make it to the finis at this time. Plus it gives me alittle extra time to prep the drying area.
