Flushing question

I flushed by plants 10 days before they are to come down, I have them in large grow bags so I normally only have to water them once every 6 days or so. So since I will not have to water them until 3 or 4 days before I cut them down do you think it would be better to just not water them for the full ten days? I feel like I heard somewhere that it's better to harvest when the soil is dry, don't know if that true or not. Do they need more water to help get out the nuts or anything like that?

Most soil growers flush them for a week or so before harvesting to remove the nuts (lol).
First time flush them with 1/4 strength nuts. uhh.. according to that jorge guy. VV

Thanks, I guess what I was more wondering is can the flush be my last watering. Is there nothing wrong with that? Other then that they will go 10 days with only that one watering.

your not flushing correctly, you can give it plain ph'd water but alot of salt buildup will still remain in your soil. You need to run water through your soil until the bottom comes out almost clean water. Easy process is to get a bucket place a stole inside and put your plant on the stole then just run water in your plants until the water draining runs clean. Then give your plants a lil bit of nutes then you'll gradually see your plant turning more yellow faster. Then Water it then your done. Properly flushed plants used up most of its storaged nutrients.
