I’d go another week as is. You still have a lot of weight to put on it looks like. Jack may be a longer flowerer also - so if it’s something like a 10-11 week flowerer, you’ll wanna feed well into week 7-8. Personally I taper my feeds kinda like you’re outlining, but I’ll do that the last 2 weeks of its life. Not halving the nutes but say 20% off the original dose each time til I hit somewhere around 0.5EC hopefully it looks ready to chop and at that point I’ll feed just pH’d water for the last couple days (4-5) and then chop it

Ducking back in here to give you this link to look at - diaries of Jack Herers that have been harvested - some have gone 9, 10, 11 weeks in flower... so keep pumping the PK, get her bulked up nice and fat and start checking the trichs when you see her naturally start to fade.... :-D

You don't need to flush your plants and it's got a good 4 week left yet before it's ready the plants look really good and if you have patience your yealds will be amazing happy growing and take your time

I don't do a true flush... I don't think it's necessary as I REALLY don't think you can taste the difference and it's hard to imagine that the plant is going to give up all the chemicals its taken on board in a week or two... and if you're growing organically, there's no chemical anything that anyone would feel the need to get rid of! I agree with Ezzjaybruh here - I think you've got quite a while to go yet... If the seedbank is saying "10 weeks in flower" - well, they're just trying to sell seeds and the shorter periods of time sound pretty appealing ("Wow! I can have a harvest in only X weeks!!") and they buy.... But the reality is often (most times) not what normal growers experience... You've got to be able to read your plant (fade, trichs, etc) and let her tell you when she's ready... When you look at your trichs with a microscope or jewelers loupe and you see a couple of amber start to show up, you'll have about a week or so before you should harvest and that's when I start reducing the feed (to help the fade) - or you can just cut them out altogether... Good luck!
