Yellow Runoff water??

Just wondering if anyone might know whether the intensity of yellow colour in the runoff is normal or is related to salt buildup/nute buildup in the soil? I'm just asking because some of my plants are in late flower (less than a week to go) and the runoff from flushing comes out yellow, more intense with some plants than others. PH isn't an issue at this point, just wondering if anyone has any feedback about this?

Perfectly normal and nothing to worry about.
If the plant is healthy dont stress as its just the run of salts and from the soil and is always yellow in my case when i water to much.

Yes it will be yellow/golden. I just lift the pots and put a towel under the pots until it stops running but its rare for me to water my plants to that extent as all you want to do is moisten the soil without it running out the drain holes and if i have runoff i know i have watered the plant to much.

LUDA.

Stopped feeding a few days ago, and just doing the flush as they're getting ready for the chop. Wondering do any of you have any tricks you do near harvest to improve taste/potency? Sort of new to the game and could always take a tip or two :eek:)read some people using molasses with their flush anyone tried that? thanks :eek:)
