HARVET FLUSH

Improves Taste, Aroma and Burn. Flushes Out All Chemicals and Salts.

Omega Genetix Laboratory has developed HARVEST FLUSH, a root flush formula for cannabis plants that removes any built-up salts and impurities that can affect the final quality of your harvest. This improves the taste, aroma and burning of the cured product.

Magnesium competes with sodium for exchange sites on soil particles. Magnesium helps to displace sodium ions from the soil particles.

Sulfur helps in flushing excess salts from the soil.

Ascorbic Acid is an acidification that helps dissolve alkaline salts making them more soluble and easier to flush out of the soil profile.

Citric acid has chelating properties that form complexes with metal ions and heavy metals by binding to these ions making them more mobile and available for leaching out of the soil.

Chitosan facilitates better water infiltration and salt leaching. 

Stearic Acid soil aggregation is essential for improving soil structure, as it creates channels for water and air to move more freely through the soil.

Palmitic Acid increases water infiltration and helps with the leaching of excess salts and other solutes, facilitating the flushing process.

1. Prevents Nutrient Lockout

Nutrient lockout occurs when there is an excess of certain nutrients in the soil, especially salts from fertilizers. When salts accumulate, they create an imbalance in the soil, making it difficult for plants to take up essential nutrients.

Flushing helps dissolve and remove excess salts, allowing the roots to access nutrients more effectively.

By reducing nutrient imbalances, it ensures that plants can take up the nutrients they need for healthy growth.

2. Improves Plant Health

A build-up of nutrients, especially from over-fertilization, can lead to plant stress and toxicity, affecting root health and overall growth. By flushing the soil, you help:

Remove toxic compounds that could damage the roots and harm plant development.

Prevent nutrient toxicity or over-fertilization, which can cause symptoms like yellowing leaves, burnt leaf tips, or stunted growth.

3. Reduces pH Imbalance

Over time, the pH of soil can become unbalanced due to excessive fertilization or other factors. Flushing the soil with a pH-balancing solution can help correct pH imbalances by:

Leaching out excess acidity or alkalinity and restoring the soil to an ideal range for nutrient absorption.

A balanced pH is essential for plants to efficiently take up nutrients and grow properly.

4. Enhances Nutrient Availability

Soil that is over-saturated with certain nutrients may block the absorption of others, creating a nutrient imbalance. Flushing helps to:

Reset the soil by removing excess fertilizers, which can make the remaining nutrients more available to plants.

Promote more efficient nutrient uptake by ensuring that nutrients are not competing for absorption in the soil.

5. Prevents Salt Buildup in Containers

In container gardening or hydroponic systems, nutrient salts can accumulate rapidly due to the limited volume of soil or growing medium. Flushing the container with a flushing solution:

Helps remove salt buildup that can damage the root system.

Reduces the likelihood of osmotic stress, where high salt concentrations prevent plants from absorbing water properly.

6. Cleanses the Soil of Chemicals or Pesticides

Over time, chemical residues from pesticides, fungicides, or other soil amendments can accumulate and negatively impact plant health. Flushing can help:

Leach out harmful chemicals or pesticide residues from the soil.

Reduce the risk of chemical toxicity and promote healthier plant growth.

7. Encourages Healthy Root Development

When excessive nutrients or salts accumulate in the soil, they can damage the root system and interfere with root growth. Flushing the soil:

Helps reduce root burn caused by high salt concentrations.

Provides a cleaner environment for the roots to grow freely, improving root health and overall plant vigor.

8. Prepares Plants for Harvest

In cannabis cultivation flushing the soil before harvest improves the quality of the final product:

Flushes out excess nutrients (especially nitrogen), which can make the plants taste harsh or lead to poor-quality buds. 

Encourages the plant to use up remaining nutrients, leading to a cleaner and more flavorful harvest with improved aroma and taste.

9. Helps Prevent Root Rot

In over-fertilized or overly wet soils, the risk of root rot can increase due to poor oxygenation. By flushing the soil:

You help maintain a healthier root environment by reducing the chance of compacted soil and poor drainage.

Flushing helps maintain proper moisture levels and keeps the soil from becoming too waterlogged, which can prevent root rot.

10. Promotes Better Soil Aeration

Flushing can help break up compacted soil, particularly in container gardening or dense soils, and improve air circulation around the roots. This:

Helps improve soil structure by loosening compacted soil particles, allowing better root expansion and water infiltration.

Enhances oxygen flow to the roots, which is crucial for healthy root function and overall plant growth.

11. Improves Soil Microbial Activity

Overuse of fertilizers or improper soil conditions can disrupt the balance of beneficial microorganisms in the soil. Flushing:

Helps remove excessive fertilizer or salts that may harm beneficial soil microbes.

Creates a better environment for microbes to thrive, promoting healthy soil ecosystems that aid in nutrient cycling and disease suppression.
