My girl is growing in soil, she is going into week three of flower, I have not been adding anything other than H20 to the soil since day 1. Day 1 meaning, since she sprouted above the soil. Knowing full well that this would inhibit the plant in various aspects- this is my first time. She's 15 inches tall, looking happy and healthy with very minimal issues in the past 60-70days - deff indica hybrid - grown from bag seed. What I am wondering is- from all the info I've gathered, flushing is appropriate for many reasons, ridding salt buildup, ridding plant of nutes before harvest and so on , do I need to flush if I've been using nothing but water this entire time?

No., Where the salt buildup will come from if u just using water? I'll recommend u to feed a complete npk solution high in n., And compliment with micros calcium and magnesium. If not u will run into EARLY FADE AND YELLOWING OF LEAVES., Now is the time that she will use a lot of nitrogen and if u are not feeding she will pull it from the leaves for the stretch., Unless u have her in supersoil., Then u can keep doing water only. What kind of soil u got her in?

Like Tupapa said you have nothing to flush seeing that you have never fed nutes.
