I'm having a hard time seeing my trichomes thinking I'll be ready in another week or so.

Lol. So 2 no flush and 1 flush. I've just been reading everything I can, and most things say to flush. I'm pretty confident in my time frame for harvest. Just hoping for advice from people smarter than me.

“Flushing is important because it removes excess nutrients that are leftover within the plant,” explains High Times senior cultivation editor Danny Danko. “So it helps with the burnability of the flower by leeching out excess salts and nutrients.”

2 divergent context here...one that's taste oriented, and one that is based in the science aspect of the methodology.
You add nutes you grow bigger faster, that's physics, that's provable...you add too much you mess up the plant....same with burning something, less molecular impurities in the burning substance produces a purer flame. 93 octane, or 85 octane...dirty gas...that's friggin science man.
you want a cleaner burning flower for someone with sensitive inhale, then flush it...screw the haters
maybe clean hitting weed is nice, i dont know, it's not something i care about or seek out...ill burn raw fkn flower dried in front of a hair dryer for gods sake, i wanna get high and im doing it right now...but ill also defend someones right to understand flushing without the dramatic, traumatic, hostile engagement. i needed to know stuff, so i asked...you asked at one point...and now he's asking....be a cool uncle

"that no matter how they tried to “flush” the plants out, the tissues still contained statistically identical amounts of the various major plant nutritional elements N-P-K-Ca-Mg-S etc…"

you still have all the right in the world to flush if you want, you can claim the earth is flat, you can vote for [insert candidate] if you want....you do you...but flushing is stupid by the way
