High all...

This afternoon, I put the wack on 2 of 5 AK47s that have been running on straight phed tap water for the last six days, today being day 67 of Bloom.

I am in the throws of 'vacation timing'... I do not want the bud to be in the jars unattended within the first week of burpage.. so I'm cutting them earlier that I'd like.. but wonder..

can I put them (the last 3 AKs) back on light bloom nutes for 2 more weeks? (Growers remorse! LOL!!) I wouldn't have to cut until just before vacation... they would be in the hang drying stage (7-10 days) and need no attention.

Whadda u think?

Im with you on the drying and curing. You got to be there to do ti right. Otherwise you could ruin some quality Buds! So why not re-feed? They still keep flowering and the buds still swell even when you go to water only. The nutes will be fine just dont go too heavy. Enjoy!

High OG.... I agree

I added the nutes this morning (735/5.7) and will grow them for another 8 days before cut... This was my first attempt at flushing... and I will not flush again here with this grow.. 2 are cut, that were flushed, and these remaing 3 will not be... I'll see first hand, the taste differnce and decide..

Using the Lucas formula, according to Lucas and my past results, flushing, in DWC/E&F isn't necessary, so I never did.. taste has been great. But it did let me whitness how much more they wiil bulk up running only on reserves...
