I was wondering how often you guys flush with water?

Never. I do use water only the last couple weeks or so. I don't "flush" in the sense of flushing multiple pot volumes of water through my plants at the end of flower. IMO that's unecessary in an organic grow using PBP.
What would you be flushing?

although i only used ferts 4-5 times throughout my grow, my schedule for them was one water with 1 tsp and next watering was pure h20, seems to like it, as they never saw any real burn or def.

I haven't been flushing much either. I've just been building it up until I see slight burn then just keeping it there. Towards the end I always have to back the nutes down. They always start to burn a little more then. That's why I asked about flushing.
How about you pedro... what's your nute scheme?

Hey Don:
I don't have a feeding schedule as such. I make up a decent soil so that early on they don't need much. I gave my oldest plant of the five girls a feed yesterday that was 2tsp of PBPro Grow amd 1/2 tsp Flower. I "phase" them into 100% flower formula over a couple weeks. Just depends on how the plant looks. SSH doesn't need a lot of feeding...or my last one didn't.
I try to keep EC under 1.3 or so (650PPM) no matter what.
You don't need to flush with organics IMO. I agree with BurnOne and others on that point. I just water the last weeks and try to get the plant to use up nutes it has stored in its leaves.
