only problem i can see with late flushing is the dryng process once harvested will take longer with more moisture held in the plant.
the idea of not watering for the last period is to minimise the ammount of water held in the plant, which makes the drying process more simple.
its not bad for the plant or the end product, but may complicate your drying process, more chance of mold?

youll just have to use your judgement on weather they need a further flush.
but if you feel the need, i would suggest just plain water.
like i said it wont do any harm, but if they are leafs are dry when chopping time comesrather than hydrated (wet) it will help the drying, quicker, less chance of mold etc.
