Should i leave the pins when dunking my shoebox for the second flush?
    #25136580 - 04/13/18 06:51 PM (6 years, 9 months ago)

Hi everyone, I am probably within a day or two of harvesting my first shoeboxes, but they still have a bunch of small pins that dont seem to be growing right now.

The sub is slightly shrinking away from the walls and it was recommended to me to dunk the sub before the second flush, so thats what i was planning on doing.

Should i leave the pins for the dunk if they dont grow at all by harvest time? Or would that just kill them? They are scattered randomly all around the sub.



Thanks

I'd pick them all, they won't grow much more

Would it be alright if i sliced them with a knife at the base, or is it better to just pick them when their pins?

And do you think harvesting them would mess with the second flush? Im finding a bunch of mixed answers.

I'd harvest them.  Not the tiny new pins but anything that's somewhat grown.  I'd probably twist and pull by the looks of it.  If they are really hard to get out I'd cut them.  It's really not gonna make or break the grow either way

Alright cool, so it would be alright if i leave the really tiny pins during the dunk? Im planning on filling the tub with water, weighing down the sub a little, and letting it sit for 2 hours.
