Can I flush like this?

I have been flushing my plants for about a week now. By flushing I mean everytime I water, I water heavily and then a few days later do it again. I don't feel as if I have flushed enough though. I planned on harvesting Monday. Could I flush in my bathtub with my detachable shower head or something? The pH is like 7.0, but after i flushed there could I flush with like 2 gallons of well pH balance water to cancel the bathflush out. The whole thing is that I don't want to really fuck up the pH there by fucking up the plants in a matter of 48 hours.

Any opinions would be great. For further information on my grow my journal is in my signature. Thanks! ^_^

Thats exactly how I flush them! I run a TON of water through them. The water should be totally clear coming out the bottem

it won't matter how much water you run through the roots at any one time. the plant has to use up all the nitrogen in the leaves or it is going to be harsh. I say go another week or two.

Not totally true you still have to flush the nutes outta the soil before it will use what the plant has stored.

1 week of flushing may not be enough. i'd go at least one more week. DJ SHORT suggest 2-3 weeks water only.

How about some pics of the whole plant under some blue light? Its hard to tell from the ones in you're journal.
