My reckoning is it's pointless as the whole reason we're adjusting pH is so the nutrients are available to the plants. Idea behind flushing is to wash these nutes away, no?
Or does going from 6 pH in flower to 7 the pH of water unhealthy for the roots?
I only bring it up for a bit of healthy discussion as i've seen people doing it both ways.

"I fucking hate harvesting. I like planting the things and watering them, and looking after them, talking to them. I don't like fucking harvesting."
"You like smoking them, though."
"Oh, I like smoking them."

Re: pH in flush?

Re: pH in flush?
I never used to ph flush but I find that if I don’t the plant locks out and won’t use what’s in the leaves they just die off. If I ph I find the fade takes longer but the plant seems to use what’s in it. So my shout is to ph flush

Re: pH in flush?
I would advise to carry on doing what you was before flushing. If you're adjusting the PH then carry on. You're not actually removing anything from the plant when harvest flushing and the flushing agent will trigger any chemotropisms and corrective flushing you're pulling salt from the media so you wouldn't want to stress the plants by adjusting the PH.
Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.

Re: pH in flush?
Ph for abit then flush with no ph worked well. Was just the way I was told is best. I'd go with the more advanced growers rather then my comment though lol. All the best!

but final week before chop or if plant is very green i give two weeks of ph'd water..
That way in my head they are fishing the food available bit by bit... i allways end up with full flavour smooth smokes
