Flushing

Flushing is a technique used in cannabis cultivation to remove any residual nutrients from the plant's growing medium before harvest. It involves watering the plants with plain, pH-balanced water for a period of time, typically 1-2 weeks, prior to harvest. The purpose of flushing is to enhance the quality and taste of the final product by reducing the presence of excess nutrients and chemical residues. Flushing allows the plant to use up any stored nutrients, resulting in a cleaner and smoother smoking experience. It is an important step in the cultivation process to ensure a high-quality end product.
