Should I flush?

After much reading and deliberation, Im still unsure as to if I should flush right now or wait till 1-2 weeks before harvest?
currently in week 4 of flowering.
Haven't flushed once.
And after yesterday's feed, I noticed some burnt tips and spots appearing.

Should I flush them now, as well as 1-2 weeks before harvest?
Would it hurt them?

yes, Im a noob, so I welcome all suggestions and thoughts!

Nutes:
Dutch Pro
I feed every other water
in fox farm soil

Generally speaking, I would say no don't flush. Just back off the nutes and the problem will most likely correct itself. A few minor burnt leaf tips isn't anything worth doing something drastic like flushing. Any pics? Never used dutch pro nutes, but I find that almost every nutrient line I have used, the instructions on the bottle is too high.

Week 4 of flowering is when they are really going to start packing on the mass, so this is the time they usually start sucking down the nutes. Of course, every strain is different though.

Buds do not store nutrients, so flushing unnecessarily stresses your plants.
Just give the plant less nutes or even none at the end.

If you run gallons through your pots you will wash away the microbes and nutrients the plant needs to live.

Dry and cure your buds properly and you will see that flushing is a pointless myth practiced by the uninformed.

Are you serious? I don't know many people who would agree with you...most people say a flush at the end is necessary, and is even recommended on many nute instructions. But what do I know...I'm just a noob.

For those that DO flush: do you only flush 1-2 weeks before harvest, and/or do you flush several times throughout the grow?

Buds do not store fertilizer.
There is no science to back up flushing.
How come my unflushed buds taste and smell great and burn to a white ash?
