Flushing is not a myth. But not needed with most grows. Flushing was created because growers would push nuturents to the max thinking it would produce better/bigger buds. So the plants would be overfed and have toxic levels by harvest. So they would flush to get rid of the high levels of nuturents. You only need to flush if your overfeeding your plant.

This is the last thing cannabis does before it dies. Harvest sooner rather than later, it is already 1-2 weeks past prime in my opinion.

plants dont eat anything :) they use those elements to create new growth whats the worst that could happen? you starve your plant at the end where it needs to bulk up. you think apples are flushed? tomatoes are flushed? how about lettuce do you flush lettuce hahah if your buds are tasting like horseshit thats your problem flushing is a myth. you think plant releases iron from buds when you give it straight water? i’ll tell you what dont overfeed so you dont smoke awful tasting chemicals ok?

Flushing is a myth, are u joking???. You wouldn't flush if you are making hash or whatever but to have good clean smoke flushing hard metals like iron and so on out of your smoke a given. A myth god, what a load of horse shit. BTW your weed will taste similar to horse shit if you don't flush or at best cut down on any micro nutrients or hard metals that are in all micro and most nutrients these days Trust me. I didn't flush a coco plant proper and the ppm was 1000 after I checked and it was fine right up until after a months cure it brought out all them chemicals. Especially if you are using synthetic nutrients you HAVE TO FLUSH. Organic you will get away with it but even then why not flush. It finishes off your plant and it'll finish eating everything. Just soft flush for a week or do 2 hard flushes over 4 days. Flush, what's the worst it'll do. But if you don't you can't take it back, so, I'll leave u to make up your mind. Good luck man

Nope that's done. Start the flush and harvest her. I don't even need to ask about trichs I can tell from your pics she's done, about a week ago. The buds aren't huge you wanna be careful not to overcook it. It's flowing an awful long time. Good luck.
