    No, you don't need to PH the water but, yes, you do have to remove the run off

    Really I always ph the water even when I'm flushing. Wouldnt it react to ph that's off?

    When you flush it is a case of moving water through the pot to remove excess salts & feed &, assuming this is a harvest flush, you don't want the plant to continue feeding so being outsider the PH range is actually a good thing as it will allow the take up of water & lock out a lot of the feed
