When to flush

Hi all. First timer here. These Bruce Banner Auto plants are around 70 days. When should I start to flush? I know It’s not an exact science, but any help, or knowledge would be greatly appreciated. Side note: I went on vacation and came back to yellowing droopy, under fed plants. So I fed them and they seem to have sprung back to life. Tricomes still look clear to me, but I didnt know how long it took them to change.

Plants should be fed a proper balanced diet start to finish. If you insist on flushing do 5-6 days of plain water until runoff a week after you think the plants are ready to be harvested, then harvest.. I have only noticed a benefit in flushing for longer periods with plants that were impacted by heavy salt buildup (usually common in small containers/rootzones) or plants were heavily overfed.. Overfed weed can't be fixed in the end you will still have harsh weed. Your plants are what they eat and it can't be "flushed out".

Focus on feeding a balanced diet, lightening it in the last week or two of bloom and if you insist give them plain water a week after they appear ready, then chop, so it's a win win..
