That is actually the aim / reason why people flush to remove the excess nitrogen, potassium, phosphorous, manganese ect. from the actual structure of the plant. When it lacks the nutrients from the grow medium it still absorbs H20 it needs bringing the sugar with it and it breaks down the fan leaves and lower branch larf for those nutrients it's lacking. the flush itself doesn't remove anything from the plant it just shocks the plant into using its reservesComplex sugars can't count for nitrogen, potassium, phosphorous, manganese, etc, etc.
you wouldn't want this to go on for a long time but the plant can survive / thrive for the week or two that it is in the flushed soil. / DWC ect.
