2 weeks may be a bit long. The color of the trichomes determin the type of high you're going to get. If you wait until they are 50/50 Amber and cloudy that should give you a nice relaxing head high mixed in with a body buzz a little later. Tell me the high you're looking for and I'll let you know when to harvest.

That's his opinion, honestly his opinion doesn't matter. It's your cannabis so only your opinion matters. Now back to the topic at hand... if you only want 20% Amber, based on what you told me I would start flushing in 3-5 days.

We got us an expert grower here. 9 days on site and other opinions don't matter, but his does. Welcome to RIU OP.
9 days on the forum is not an indication of my knowledge and experience growing. In this case my opinion matters more because I'm actually answering his questions. He has made it clear he wants to flush. Hence the title of the thread?

Well it looks like someone else is answering OPs question and has a very different opinion than you. Seems you might be wrong.

Oh an it is 71 days old and supposed to be a 60 to finish. And the larger fan leaf are yellowing now so taking no more nitrogen. This is my 1st auto grow, so a little unsure.

That 60 days is under the breeders grow style though, so unless you grow the exact way and exact equipment it will be different. 2 extra weeks is usually a good time to add on so you should be close but could still need time.

So 1 more week feed the 2 week flush?????
I can't give that advise. I use coco. Coco has ZERO nutes in it unless fed. I use nutes up to my last feed and cut after 2-3 dry days. I do not flush. I cure well enough that nobody has complained about bad taste or ash. Burns nice and slow. I don't believe it does a plant any good in coco to have zero food for 1-2 weeks. Soils maybe to dilute the nutes in the soil, but i don't grow in soils so not gonna steer you the wrong way on that.
