Flushing

Flushing as a finale for home grows needs to die.

Plants don’t have livers or buttholes. They absorb sunlight and transpire gases / water vapor. That’s it…

You “flushing” the soil with water does nothing to remove contaminations that the plant may have absorbed during its lifetime.

Flushing during the grow can be good if your soil goes out of wack and you need to reset.

Flushing in commercial grows saves some of the expensive fertilizers used at scale since the plants are coming down soon.

Flushing for home growers to “improve taste” or “purge nutrients from buds” is nonsense.
