okay right it's living soil but it doesn't matter if it's organic or synthetic nutes that your plants have been fed. plants in the back are good to go but plants in front have nutes stored and still available in them,in excessive amounts apparently.I mean,those plants are not able to absorb all the nutes well. if you don't want to flush,try to trim well and remove all leaves you can see.green stuff makes a harsh smoke. Nute burn can be seen on the leaves.Personally I would flush the front 3 plants for a week and harvest,with plenty of pure water.and this will make a last push to help buds ripen more during that.this way you force them to use stored nutes instead of nutes in the soil.I bet your buds are smooth but my opinion would be to get rid off any green stuff.yellowing leaves will do better favor in my humble opinion. I don't see flushing as black or white,sometimes plant needs it sometimes don't.If those were my plants,I would flush the front ones.cheers
