veg nutes last weeks of flower?

ok, so ive read a couple of times before that the odd watering with veg nutes near the end of the flowering period will:
1, force ripening slighly, decreasing total flower time a little,
2, force the plant to use up the remaining phosphorous left in its leaves leading to a better smoke,

are these myths?
do they work?

i have about 2 weeks left give or take a few days and my lemon seems to be slightly behind everything else so was thinking about getting some ghe ripen solution to speed it up a little but as there is another postal strike starting in uk i dont think i will get it in time, so..... do i give a watering of veg nutes? bearing in mind they havent had any nutes for the last 2/3 waterings,

i dont want to mess them up at the last minute but would of rather been able to harvest them all within 2/3 days of eachother as i have the new batch of clones cueing up lol,:-o

anyone know about using veg nutes in late flower? anyone tried it?

hopefully someone could shed a little more light on the subject

I try to get rid of all nutes not add the last few weeks. I call bull shit on your reading material.

total bs, the people who tell you that stuff are wrong like stumps said, dont listen to them. i give a veg feeding around week 3-4 of flowering if the fan leaves are yellowing badly/dying too soon though. but veg nutes close to harvest will hurt alot more then it would help.
