She was harvested on the 8th of August. She didn't really put off much smell, but she'll reach up and touch you, right between the eyes.

Her daughter is currently vegging, so we'll see her again.

Mine at this point seems to smell just like a plant and has no smell of Mimosa whatsoever.. Does this smell only appear after drying and curing? I'm kinda worried that I didn't flush correctly and that I'm paranoid that I can smell like a gluey chemically smell coming from the trichomes when I touch them and smell my fingers. Almost as if it's a strain like Gorilla Glue or something! Should I run a last flush before I cut and drain a large amount of water through her as my run off is still dark in color?

I don't know crap about DTW. I grow DWC. Even after the cure she doesn't have much smell. Maybe a bit chemical in smell. I put her in nothing but rainwater for two weeks before the cut, so residual chems shouldn't be an issue with mine. What did you do for your flush?

Well what I was doing at the start of the grow was weighing the pot dry and monitoring how long it takes to dry out and it was taking a week exactly with just the beginning signs of the leaves going from pointing up to drooping ever so slightly. i have her in a 20L fabric pot not fully filled and was taking 7-8L of water to give me like 15-20% runoff and I'd water her gently with a pressure pump evenly. Would take around half hour to water as I would try to not get any water on the leaves/buds. In terms of flushing, I just cut out the nutrients completely and only feed with 6.5 PH water, just an extra 2 liters making it 10L in total of just plain PH water. My runoff is coming out brownish in color to a yellowish color, not clear like it's going in. I'm a little worried it has too much nutrients in the buds still and that's why it smells a bit chemically, also I'm worried I'm flushing wrong and that I need to keep running water through till it's clear.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

If it were me, I would run her till clear for flushing, otherwise I would think there are still nutrients to be absorbed.

Do you suggest I do that now even while it's still not dry enough from the last watering? Wouldn't that cause overwatering?
Sorry this is my first grow, so I'm still kinda paranoid about getting things wrong after making it this far!

I understand completely, I don't want to advise incorrectly. I would wait till she needs the water and then water quickly till she runs clear

I was thinking down the same line as you, she still has a few days left I suppose due to her not having much amber trichomes showing on the buds themselves, just on the sugar leaves so I guess I have a bit of time to play with. I'll weigh her tomorrow and see if I can start right away!
