Its called give them water. When they are that far into flowering they always need to be kept moist. Leaves turn downward and droop when they want water...

That late in flower the leaves SHOULD be drooping as the plant is taking nutes from the leaves and sending it to the buds. Mine do the same thing around that time. It is also good to let the soil dry out really well during the last phase of flower to increase resin production. BTW...overwatering will cause leaves to droop just as dry soil will. The difference is in the leaf stem. Dry...the whole leaf including stem will droop. Overwater...the leaf will droop, but the stem doesn't. Well in my experiences this has held true. Really I would not be too worried about it. You said you just flushed so more than likely it is due to the amount of water in the soil and the fact that the leaves are done with their job and are being shed.

yep. now there are flushed, let them dry out.
Harvest when you can wait no more, or you see some male yellow flowers.
