    You will be fine, no other plant that i know of gets "flushed" before harvesting..not even hops. Too me personally, I feel like flushing is a preference, but I wont tell you not to flush if you want to or feel you need to.

    I dont flush either.

    It will be best to not trim the leaves after you harvested it...slow drying , it will help a lot in the end...last time i fed a heavy nutrient and same day i had to harvest it and hanging whole plants with fans intact and i had to went somewhere...it surprised me that slow drying it will bring best aroma out of it and no harsh at all. But potency is always there

    happy gardening.

    I have seen a lot of folks here who like the taste of non-flushed bud. Some folks liked Zima as well.

    Flushing is a myth.

    If you give it a good slow dry i doubt you will be able to tell if its been flushed by taste. Its not like the nutrients are sitting in your plant in the same form that you gave them anyway.Plants absorb the mineral ions and use them in chemical processes that make starches and sugars ect. I really think the flushing idea came from plants with way too much nitrogen in them at harvest. Lots of chlorophyll in plant matter makes it taste bad. If you slow dry and cure that chlorophyll will gas off. If you quick dry its trapped in the buds.
