What I have is the first lowryder#2xAK47 plant which is about ready for harvest...I just fed it 1/2 strength nutes the other day, but realize its almost time to harvest(the tricomes are milky white with some turning amber)-whats the best way to flush this considering I may be pulling it from the ground in a few days?

To flush run 3 gallons of water per gallon of soil. I just flushed a 2 gallon pot with 6 gallons of water. Just pour it on through and watch it drain out the bottom. It will start out being yellow colored and eventually will run clear, that's when you know you got everything.

Hey I have a question about flushing too :P Would it do any harm to pull the plants out of the darkness to do it? My lights are 10pm-10am and I'm not around when they're awake to do it :S

Just do it as close to their light cycle as possible. They will be a little shocked from all the water anyways so a little premature light shouldn't hurt that much.

I'll do it tonight when the kids go to bed around 9. Haven't watered in 2 days in preparation for flushing.
