Organics hypothesis. To Flush or the opposite of flush!

So with all do respect to salt feeding hydro boys and gals, this is about the question and discussion of flushing organic mediums before chop or the opposite, NOT watering hardly at all.

I point to grapes. Big rains before and during harvest ruin the flavor of wine. "Some common terpenes found in wine are Geraniol, Linalool, Citronellol, and A-Terpiniol."(that's from Google lol)
If those are the flavors making up the taste/sensation of grapes then would it not be true of cannabis too???

Should we not only not flush but stress the plant by lessening it's watering consumption going into harvest for maximum terpene profiles??

I do only give the required amount of water all through the grow cycle and I never pH anything only giving about 3 teas thru harvest...no flushing and making harvest day fall on a dry day for the soil...I rip it out by the roots, fold the stem over, buck it and hang it for 14+ days, trim it, then into jars....I absolutely never flush and I never see much runoff either throughout the cycle.

Quite similar to what I do as well, minus the ripping up part, and 14 day hang. Lol. I use pruning shears, and gamma buckets.

The only flushing I've done is when I've fucked something up, and need to wash things out.

whne using only organic s -- see no reason to flush dur to the fact we ar grownin naturally - know some organic growers that do add water to the mix the last few days before harvest Interestng ting: my cat eats a few fab leaves here and there - once when I "pushed" that plants (heavy chemical fertilizers) the cat did not eat any fan leaves during that grow. Now that I'm growing organic again he can't get enough "fans" (limit him to 1 -2 leaves if that) maybe he knows something I don't - grow CLEAN !!! Guess he can be my tester for chemical's !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
