You should not flush.. You should adjust your nutrients accordingly and not oversaturate your plants.. Flushing for 2 weeks does some really negative things to your plant. It breaks down stored nutrients and causes your plant to circulate more nasties to the bud sites.. It cuts out on terpene production and makes for a quicker finish and less weight.. Flushing for a few days before harvest sure that makes sense.. 2-3 weeks is much too long and you will absolutely negatively affect your plant.

Not all plants are the same your far better to adapt your schedule and timing to what you see.. Learn to speak to the plants.. They talk to you through the foliage.

U can flush from 2 to one week before harvest, starting with a lot of water the first time to collect a lots of salts in the runoff. So you continue watering regularly until the end. You can defoliate to leave the light reach all the buds to let them ripen all at the same โœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿฝ Sorry for my english , hope to help ๐Ÿ˜Š

You should flush for about 3 weeks before harvest and its best to leave defoliation out just to allow them to do a full flower with out any stress since they are autos
