There are a lot of good threads on this subject so I won't go into too much detail, I believe this sub-forum has a nice sticky about this very subject as well.
Near optimal ranges:
Temp range: 16 degrees celcius - 23 degrees celcius
RH: 45% - 65% (the higher, the longer the dry will take)
Days: It's different for every setup due to all the variables but generally ~6 days
One of the most overlooked factors is air flow, be sure to keep a proper and continuous air flow or you will wind up with stale, crappy or even moldy weed.
You don't want the stems to snap, you want them to still be able to bend without snapping, sounds like you dried out your weed too much.
How long did you burp the jars for when your burped?
Did you move the buds around in the jars (cycling)?
Flushing isn't going to ruin your harvest but it would definitely have impacted your end product and the overall productivity of your plants.
Regarding your last questions it's very hard to give a generalized answer, because everything is relative, to the environment, your setup, your plants etc. there are just too many variables.
But I would say for late harvest I generally stay within Hanna 1000ppm - 1600ppm (depending on the strain and the variables).
That's around 2.0 EC - 3.2 EC.
I use some pretty basic GHE hydro nutrients, regular ratio, no special stuff (bloom buddy, extra bloom, whatever else these marketing people call their shite).
Nutrients are nutrients, whether they are organic, hydro or whatever other variant you find, obviously you want to match soil nutrients with soil mediums and hydro nutrients with water based mediums but other than that it's mostly nitpicking and superstition/assumptions, don't believe the overhyped marketing machines.
