100% cloudy trichs.. when should i start to flush?

the title said it all.

what week are you into and how does the rest of the plant look?

Depends what effect you are after?
Since they're 100% cloudy they will probably produce a head high / energetic high (depends on how long you've flowered them, strain and other variables).
If you want a more of a couch lock high you could wait until you see 10-50% amber trichs.
It's all based on personal preference, just don't harvest too late (I personally don't like 70% + amber).

well if ur already cloudy your probably already to the point where you should be flushing with straight fresh water.. it should be the last 2 weeks of your plants life.. since they do not grow very much more in this stage you just want to push out all of th last nutrients stored within your plant to get it to optimum potency at harvest.

is this because the end result is too much of a couch-lock high? i ask, because that is what im searching for. i am in my 3rd week on 8 plants, on 4th week on 2 of my plants. i see the hairs starting to darken, but not much, they are still a little long and white. i know im not looking at the pistols though, i know to look for the amber trichs. im just trying to time it perfectly, for i want the narcotic type of high. thanks for the help!!

Well, yes.
Around 50%+ amber trich plant will produce a couch-lock high yes.
Many strains actually produce a couch-lock high or a combination of energetic and couch-lock already @ 10% amber trichs.
Getting more amber trichs then only increases that effect but there is a cut off point.
You don't want 100% amber trichs, trichs turning amber basicly means that the THC is being "degraded" into CBD, thus the high changes, and if you wait too long your bud will lose potency, just like if you harvest too early (all clear trichs).
I know people who go 80% amber trichs, but I will warn you and say you probably won't be able to stand up after tokin' on that.

My best advice would be to harvest some part of your crop @ 30% amber and another part @ 50% and perhaps another one @ 70%.
That way you will be able to get your preference narrowed down
