I have always Flushed  my IRBs when I switch then to 12x12... But I waz just thinkin, (I know it's not that often ) the girls stretch for 10 dayz to 2 weeks, and need the Nutes, so would it be better to flush after the stretch? I also switch from GH FloraNova Grow to GH Flora, 3part when I switch to flower. Any Hydro folks have any thoughts as to when to flush and switch to flowering nutes???

| if i were to do everything by the book, and i dont,  i would give the plant a grow regimen of nutes up to around the 2wk point, then flush and switch to flowering nutes. this way, they get the N they need, during the stretch. but, this really kind of depends on the strain. some strains don't care what you give them, as long as its food.

| I don't flush until the end.   When I add a PK supplement I don't change PPM but use less of my base nutrients. I do this when the stretch is over.
