When you guys say flush do you mean to water as usual and just not nutes or water more regularly without nutes?

some will say to over water.. but i would think that if you just water with ph'ed water with no nutes as usually for the last week or two and you should be good..
i have also been reading a lot about this too.. roseman and fdd2black say that there is no real need to flush, and it actually caused more harm than good during the critical last week or two of flowering.. i just read an article on this subject that said that if you only use the correct amount of nutes during the plants growth, and don't feed every watering, then there shouldn't really be any build up of nutes in the soil that need to be flushed out... and the same article said that a proper cure will do more for you in terms in flavor and smoothness of smoke compared to a flush..
i don't know what the real answers are to a flush... i flushed my last grow... but i am thinking of not flushing this grow and see what the results are..
i hope i didn't add too much confusion, lol.. i just wanted to tell you what i have been reading about flushing/ not flushing your plants..i would just say try to do some research on the subject and see what you can find out on your own..
