Im on day 65 of my grow probably 35-40 days into flowering. My problem is i left for a trip and my friend had to tend my babies but made a mistake. He didn't know the right instructions for ferting and took about 3x the heavy feeding amount and dumped it straight into the soil without diluting it. I came home today and noticed that major nute burn had took place as shown in the photos. The plants are close to harvest and I need to know what my best course of action is here. I'm debating whether to flush and trim the leaves worst off or flush and try to nurse them back. If anyone has any input on how to fix the situation it'd help a lot thx. And a few of the top leaves are so brittle that they break if u hold them too tight.

sorry pictures coming soon probably in next 2 hours

Here are some pictures from last night of the problematic plant that was over-ferted. Should I still flush it? Also it looks like its just about time to harvest as well.

EDIT: Can I harvest that top main cola while the rest of the bud on the plant finishes maturing? (If I clip it off at the stem below the top cola it won't kill the plant??).

I hope you slapped your friend upside the head for making such an ignorant move. Granted, we can't all have green thumbs, but people should at least have the common sense to dilute it, especially when every such product has that on the label.
