Dark leaves usually implies excess nitrogen (which is the first number in your NPK nutrients) If I were you I wouldn't flush but I would skip the nutrients on my next watering. Tips for future waterings:
1. Make sure you're using the right amounts
2. Make sure you are not overwatering the plant in general, Water frequency as well as amounts are both factors to a good grow. Let your plants tell you when to water them rather than forcing a cycle.
If you want more info add the name of your nutrients so we can have a better idea what you're dealing with. Good luck on your grow, it will surely recover

nothing to overreact to... make note of concentraion and what you want to do next time... give something a little below that or even a water-only irrigation with a little runoff at regular time. between what it drank and what remained, it'll be a lower concentration guaranteed.. more so with runoff.

Thanks for your input , the nutrients I'm using is biobizz & half the recommended dose. But I just upped it today to 1.5ml / litre of the fish mix & noticed that my girls were turing a darker shade of green , I think I got a bit paranoid because of this .. this is my 1st grow ever & growing 2 strains , banana purple punch & strawberry cheesecake, both are autoflowers. Since i increased my light to 80% the temperature has been a constant 24°c
Again thank you's for the advice it's much appreciate 💚🌱

Being careful not to overwater I'd consider plain water maybe next 2 waterings. Have you checked your soils ph? Also I feel the room may be a bit chilly if its 68 day 63 night. Have you considered raising your temps? I keep my grow room 78 day 68 night

Your plant looks healthy and vigorous,don't see anything wrong with her. You should only give it water the next time around, don't wanna just feed nothing but nutrients that will start to cause problems. She doesn't need to be flushed though and most of the time in the vegetative stage especially less is more. It's critical that you are doing good and have no deficiencies or anything at the time that you flip her into flowering so don't overuse nutrients and cause any issues in the vegetative stage when she looks great.

Substitute for liquid hydroponic nutrient solutionsThose solutions (like Hesi Hydro Growth) seem to be ridiculously overpriced, like 10€ for 1 liter fertilizer solution which consists of mostly water itself is a total ripoff in my understanding.
Is there a substitute for those heavily overpriced nutrient solutions?4 years ago

How much hydro nutrients per plant?My two tiny plants have access to 100 liters of water with nutrients added according to the schedule of the producer (Hesi). But the ratio of water to plants is very different comparing to smaller scaled hydroponics. Is there a rule of thumb or such?4 years ago

Co2/Temps/NutrientsI pushed the temps up and got the VDP on point w/co2.
Now since the plant is drawing a lot more water up through the roots, I've noticed very slight nute burn on the newest leaf growths.
Do you have to drop PPM's as temps rise? I thought it was the other way around?

Am I watering too quickly?Someone suggested that I use this pump to remove excess water from my tray. It wasn't powerfull enough for that, but it works perfectly (I think) for slowly(ish) pushing a good bit of water to the plants. Is this too fast? Is it too slow? Does it really friggen matter?
