I literally use 0 nutrients in my soil. I build my soil at the beginning, give it a week or two to cook and reach equilibrium with the microlife, and then the plants go in. They get R/O water, and the occasional bacterial or fungal tea to keep the microherd numbers high, and other than that I watch the plants grow.
I do have supplies on hand to battle any micro-nute deficiencies, but I only need those when I'm experimenting with my soil mix and I screw something up.
So no, I don't flush, or you could say that the whole grow is one big flush

I make a very rich soil mix. Its got greensand, guano, perlite, manure, compost, FF Peace of Mind 5-5-5, mycorhyizzae, pelletized dolomitic lime (for slower release), kelp meal, blood meal, bulb food, soft rock phosphate, and Happy Frog (I'm not looking at my recipe right now, but I think that's it).
Because it is 100% organic, I get 0 salt buildup, and b/c it has such a LOW percentage of peat by volume (whatever is in the Happy Frog only), the pH of the soil doesn't become too acidic when I recycle my soil.
 Beautiful. I wish I was one of your weed plants.

Hecks yeah, 81. Those Humboldt Nutes were not very old around the time I quit growing. I read about them in "Grow" magazine which was just begining at the time and was out of Humboldt County and on the internet and quickly became interested and wanted to try them. I was using a premium brand from Canada at the time and wanted to bring my money back to the US. No offense Canada. This is just where I live. If I lived in Canada. I would be keeping my Canadian dollars there.
This thread is chill.
