1st grow, 2nd flush help?
    #12993163 - 08/02/10 09:22 PM (14 years, 5 months ago)

This is my first grow and im using pk tek. I have been picking a few every day, as soon as the veil opens. Initially, the pins are grey like aborts but then they grow and get their color, maybe i am doing something wrong?

Anyways, things are starting to slow down, and i think its time for the second flush. There are some here and there but overall there is very slow growth of pins if any at all. I read in the double-ended casing tek that the cakes should be cleaned of everything, and i dont want to wait too long because it feels like im wasting the nutrients in the cake. So should i just dunk and roll again? Is there something significant that happens when you flip it over? What should i do?

Thanks:laugh:

It sounds like your doing fine. A flush should be fairly obvious when it occurs if your just getting a couple every few days your humidity might be to low to actually create a pronounced flush. I'd suggest to dunk and roll clean off all the aborts you wont lose any nutrients doing this so really your not hurting anything.

Okay that makes sense but i still cant decide. Some are still coming out, but youre saying that by removing all of the stalks(i couldnt pick them without taking all the pins with it so i cut them) and pins i wont hurt anything?

Here's a picture(obviously)

Leave as many pins as you can- that's your second flush.

Okay, so all they need is moisture added, i can figure something out. Ill just set them in wet verm and put some more on the top - its probably too late to flip them over. Would dunking them for a few minutes hurt? Pins and all?

Just dunk them, don't mess around.
