I noticed a couple of foxtails on my flowers that appeared during day 3-5 of flush. Still curing so I'm not sure if they're hermies or not, but I haven't seen any other seeds. I don't know if it's just the strain (sourdiesel) or stress.
Well in my experience it depends on your grow method. If doing Hydro or Aero, that's true (better to reduce nutes over a couple of days). If doing a soilless mixture, you're probably fine to go straight zero. This is what I do, though my mixture is entirely soilless any more but a mixture of soilless & soil. Next run the mixture is going to be a little more heavy on the soil, and I'm going to try and blend the mixture so I don't worry about adding nutes or flushing - just add water!

As far as foxtails, keep an eye on 'em but it could be the strain. I've run a sourdiesel before but who knows if it's the same as yours, and didn't get those. If you know the person you got the sourdiesel from, follow up with them - hopefuly they'll be able to let you know what's going on.
