Flushing Hydro

[Guest weekprik]

Who flushes thier plants every 2 weeks roughly??

 

I thought you just flushed at the end before harvest,

Do I just remove the nutes and cycly ph adjusted water though my system for 20 min??

 

what will this do for me?

[Guest Field_of_Light]

Nah any clean water will do...I have to say nearly everyone I know does it weekly or fortnightly.....

 

Hook up a hose to take the excess water outside to your garden from the flushing....and then after all the crap salt laden water has gone reintroduce your nutes as per your watering cycle...

 

Or if you are growing in a closet take em to your bathroom and flush em there under a tap....

[Guest Field_of_Light]

oh yeh if they are closet based plants fluish em with warm water...so as not to shock em....

[Sadant]

we just put tap water without nutes through it every few weeks,

but before we pull we are going to run distilled water through it to clean it out fully

i just run 2 cycles of ph adjusted water per water change which is weekly.

 

The first flush comes out at .6ec and the second comes out at .4ec my base level
