There are lots of growers clean game that flush more than once throughout there grow a lot of people will do it before they flip to flower. Some will also do it once every week in flower to once every two weeks. So you growing method might be what you like or what you have heard how to do it. But IMO that a lot of breeders and growers alike will flush more than just a final flush so you might want to do a little more homework. Peace mike

The TRUMP of SKUNK: making skunk loud again!

Your big "I" is showing again. The only 'schedule' that can be said is the same for all strains is a gradual diminishing of nute strength the last 3 weeks. Should be around 100ppm by the time you harvest.

I run full strength nutes 'for the lighting being used' for all size plants. As long as they have a small handful of roots, they can handle a balanced nute profile at full strength.

"Full Strength" is (again) entirely dependent on pheno being grown, light density and (to a lesser degree) humidity and air/co2 content.

Main reason you can never pull the 'optimum' out of different plants in the same res at the same time. Just not possible.

You can produce what I consider 'average' meds that way... lots of folks might call them 'fire' but they're understanding of cannabis is limited. Heck, you can even produce crap that way pretty easily too... now that I think about it.

Feed for the marathon... not heavy, not too light... just enough to keep the plant 'fed'. Taper off slowly the last few weeks.

Actually quite simple really. Just no way to post an "Optimal Schedule" like you're asking without filling in a whole lot of other variables. Eh? :D

Keep it Clean! :D

hey clean

in nlp we call this post projection, then deflection

all good though. remember , by judging others you are only really judging yourself

i am flattered that you decided to imitate my blog though, peace

Are you claiming that you have seen people use medmans methods consistently over an entire grow? I personally haven't but I have seen bigger than normal growth spurts from under fed plants that have recently been fed properly.
I think you should keep an open mind. Everyone thought that the world was flat at one point. It wouldn't be that crazy if plants grow best with organized spurts.
But anyways, you shouldn't dismiss anything medman says so easily. The man is on a whole different level when it comes to growing. His level of passion and dedication is second to none. He surely has something to teach you.

Well said GSPfan there is no other way to put it. You do not see a lot of breeders taking the time out of there lives to show people techniques and tricks like medman does. I am also sure that because of med-man he has convinced a lot of people that were scared to grow to take a chance and start growing there own medicine. So for that alone you have to take your hat off to med-man otherwise like I have said before he could be just like everyone else and just dump seeds on the market and not show or even teach or for that matter be a stuck up breeder on a high horse that won't even answer people question when they ask them which a breeder on here won't say his name but I pm'd him to ask about a drop and strain that I wanted of his but I guess he was just to busy to answer my question so needless to say he will never get my business. Med-man is a open book for people to pick his brain apart I suggest you sit back smoke a joint get your notepad ready and take notes. Well seeing as I have yet to see your grows clean game go borrow a joint from a friend and sit back and take notes I am sure u will learn some things you never knew. Peace mike

As for feeding your cannabis?
Do it both ways yourself like I have and see for yourself. That's all I'm gonna say here. lol

Guys, please quit needling each other. CleanGame, you have a fool proof method and MedMan, likewise with experience in grows, both of you.

The END product is what you both or all of us are after, no matter the direction or method you choose. Can we agree to have a difference of opinion and leave it at that?????!!!! Sheesh.

week 4

week 4

- the purple pain killer is always a bit slow to start, but still really popping
- spend some time to continue training branches and tops as the stretch out more
- remember 5 days nutes 1.5-1.9 ec, 5.5ph-6.2ph, 48 hours shock flushing in between res changes
- pump co2 to 2000 ppm now. my afghanicas always explode in week 5-7
- dehu 45%
- take note that it is impossible to tell they were naked a week ago. shock pruning is the law :)
- the nets have turned the space to 5 feet wide instead of 4 with training. this is also a big key to gaining larger yields with the same lighting :)

flushing

flushing

week 4-7 are the same for nutes and c02

so when you get to 50 days start flushing

turn co2 in half to 1000ppm

turn dehu to constant

flush for 10 days

then shock ripening for 3 days at least

a total of 63 days with most afgahanicas

@med-man,

Can you please explain what the 6" ducting going into the table is needed for? I may have missed it if you already said what its used for. Thanks

hey kush trees

it allows flow of cool air from the shaded rez area (drain hole) to the highest point of the root chamber (duct)

What's good M-man? With your headband strains should they also be done around 63 days or should they be taken out to 70 days in soiless medium?

MM,

Thank you for the link to this thread. Has answered almost all of my questions. I still have a few more, but will do more searching before I ask you. I am stoked that I can actually do this. Shit skills in mechanics, and carpentry. I still feel I can do this. Appreciate the time, and best to you...D
