I give them nutrients all but the last week of flower. No flush. I tried a handful of the Advanced supplements, but they are expensive, and with the quality just the Sensi Line produces, the cost is hard to justify, at no added retail gain. Perhaps with a smaller garden I would use some of them. Anyways, I have never tasted that chemical/metallic taste found in buds which were over-nutrient feed. So I stopped doing the flush and haven't noticed the difference since.
As you said, to each their own. My point is, the gradual increase I suggested is a part of the recommendation from the manufacture, and as such should be followed and considered the "proper dosage." Since I don't deviate from that much, I can't see the harm. Other nutrient lines may be different. I haven't tried many others.
Good discussion...
