Conflicting information about the end of a flush

Hi!
I've been researching this forum and other ones, both older as well as more recent posts and I still don't understand how to tell when a flush is done and it's time to dunk.
Some people say when the first fruits start to open their veil, you should pick everything and dunk and other people say a flush is done when there's no new mushrooms popping up.
I have been harvesting for the last 2-3 days, picking the mushrooms that were ready and letting the other ones develop until they broke their veil. A few new mushrooms keep appearing every day.
Does this mean the flush isn't done yet and I should keep harvesting individually or should I pick everything and dunk?
Thank you

After you have harvested everything and there is nothing left the flush is done. There are no rules as to how to harvest, the way you do it is the way I do it.

Sometimes, especially with ms, it’ll be a kind of rolling flush. A few will be ready each day for a week then eventually one time theyll all be ready and you can pick them and dunk.
If it seems dry you could always try bottom watering a tiny bit.

Thanks for your input. Happy to hear that I'm not doing something stupid lol it does feel like the most logical thing to do.

Yeah, that's exactly what is happening
I will follow my gut and wait until no more mushrooms are popping up before dunking it.
I don't think it's dry yet because the ones that are growing have fuzzy feet and the vermiculite doesn't look dry, but it could be since I haven't misted much and the first dunk was done like a month ago.
Thank you for your help!
