I dont know about that, i've always used straight water the last 10 days till harvest. The plant litterally eats whatevers left in the fan leaves and turns yellow and drops giveing me clean tasty buds.
Wormcasting is a source of Nitrogen, i dont understand why you would give that to plant thats nearly ready to be harvested?
GG-
Not much N in worm castings. The worm castings will supply humic acids to the soil to buffer pH and provide microbes and the molasses will provide carbohydrates so the plant can scavenge the rest of the food in the soil. Feeding the plant until harvest in organics is a good thing. You don't starve the turkey 10 days before Thanksgiving do you?

Bottom Line: If flushing was PROVEN to make a significant difference, it would be as common as watering when the soil is dry or adding pH up when the pH is too low. It would be a grow-basic.
Truth is it's debated each and every time someone reads up on it and asks, "Should I flush and if so how long".
Live by your own experience is what I say... sure, ask around, research a bit...but most importantly DO WHAT WE HAVE.....TRY IT.
I've flushed, not flushed, used organics and non-organics and my findings are:
Flushing is NOT required for Organics
Flushing is NOT required for more than 7 days if using suppliment (Clearex)
Lastly - if you don't flush at all and feed those ladies until they're ready....
.....drum roll......
I haven't noticed ANY difference in the final product (organics) when allowed to cure. Without a cure everything tastes like ass.
