Day 116
chopped the final lady last night!!
and put the stretchy one into jars, seemed very airy and very hairy!!
didnt weight it...to much disappointment i think

last one seems to be the best, at least the biggest and densenst of buds on her, thinking its from the no flush, well kinda flush?
was feeding like 80ppm right till chop, after a flush of 20L of water runoff was coming out around 50ppm till the end

 

[InTheShed]

Sorry about the fluff...hope you get some solids off the last one!

 

[Lungren]

thx man, still smokes great!
time to start another journal i think
received 4 plants from clone, think they are rooted out and about 2 months old of black kush from a friend of mine
dunno if i want to keep them or start something from seed yet, seem pretty stretchy, and looks like some deficiencies

 

[InTheShed]

You could top them low and I'm sure you can take care of any deficiencies! Clones are so much easier than planting and worrying .

 

[Lungren]

think i'll transplant them tomorrow and bury them a bunch, dont like how stretchy and unstructured they look!!

 

[InTheShed]

True dat!

 

[Lungren]

new shit still wet as hell!!!
started a new journal for them

 

[Backlipslide]

Damn! I just found this journal, and now I need to find your new one haha

They turned out fantastic! Sorry to hear about your other ones you threw in the garbage.

Here’s to a new grow!

well the no flush plant #4 turned out okish, no idea what strain doesnt pack a punch or anything and still developing some flavor
but she burned white!!!
flushing def a myth on this one, and with the tightest buds of the four, i wont be flushing any time soon!!!

His dank weed had nothing to do with flushing! The pdf link (second link) is a test they did in hydro where one set of plants was in plain water for two weeks before harvest. No difference in the nutrient content of the buds after drying. You can't flush nutes from buds, it's scientifically impossible.

VPD is important if you have that kind of control. If not, just do the best you can. Here's a great thread on VPD if you're interested:

Vapor Pressure Deficit & What It Means To You!

VPD - Overview Until the last couple years, Vapor Pressure Deficit, was measured mostly by research universities and agricultural laboratories. The tech available to growers these days has enabled us to dial a grow room in very accurately with regards to heat and RH. We all know that cannabis...

Can throw all the science you want at the flushers mate. They still won't believe you lol.
I think the myth comes from back in the days when folk didn't really trim the buds, smoking the sugar leaves too. Those would undoubtedly taste nasty without a flush.

It’s all a preference.. I’ve flushed, I’ve not flushed, I’ve also cut it down naked, it’s all a preference. You can skip it or keep doing it, again it’s all a preference.

 

[InTheShed]

I'm with you 100% BLS! Anyone can grow anyway they want, but what they shouldn't do is tell others that flushing makes for cleaner tasting buds because it flushes the nutes from them. That's just contradicting the science .

thats what i was told!!!
