    I know tap water is normally just fine for flush as it will lockout nutes, I'm not sure what ph is needed to lockout mind so sure some one will clear that up, I'll be doing my 1st flush this grow so I'm interested to know if you still water to run off or what not ....

    I never PH the water when I flush, I cannot see the point in that because when you flush you want to remove "ALL" traces of chemicals and obviously PH up and down are chemicals. PH up and down are only used to help the plant take in nutrients so they are not needed when flushing.

    I flush with RO as flushing with my tap water would be like sewage.

    I Slowly lower the EC to 0 and keep the PH in check over 2 weeks

    I don’t want root lock out I want the nutes to be sucked out of the plant during the flush/leech so no big EC or PH swings.
