I believe you're a tad ahead of your plant. I usually see 8 or 9 weeks flowering time for my Pineapple Express grows, not 10 weeks total from planting. Your photos show me a great looking plant, but not one a week from harvest. Definitely not time to be concerned about flushing yet. Good luck; you're doing great so far!

@jamjam887766, Yes, depending on how strong the nutrient adds have been, I make sure the last two or three watering cycles are water only, no nutrients. I always cut off a small fan leaf near the middle of the plant and taste the sap BEFORE I start to flush, then repeat with another leaf from the same area AFTER flushing. If you've been feeding heavily you should be able to detect slight bitterness from the first leaf stem, but no bitterness from the second "taste test". You'll be fine. Take Care.

@jamjam887766, That's it. The idea is to wash out any residual fertilizer chemicals. Usually 2 or 3 waterings does the trick. I break off a fan leaf before the flush to check the taste, then another after to make sure I don't taste any chemicals.

@AuldKelt, what do you do for flushing? Just water like normal but without nutrients during the last week?

@Newbiegrower420, dude for real! I stopped feeding the plant nutrients a few weeks ago - I can't believe how well it's doing

Judging by the amount of nutes you are giving, the fact that I see no pH or EC / PPM info, I would think you have a mild case nute burn. Since you are already past 8 weeks, I would stop all feeding and give it plain water and let the plant consume what's left on the soil.
