Is it okay to flush my plants after bottom leaves have burnt out due to nutrients? I plucked 3 burnt out leaves (on the right)them out (they basically fell off really) I am in week 5 and the other leaves look completely fine, green and healthy..suggestions?

Please post a picture in natural lighting so we can help you determine what/what not to do. But FLUSHING is generally fine to do regardless of the medium. However, the growing medium you're using plays a role in the amount of time you flush.

i wouldnt worry too much If you have no discoloration on the rest of the plant. often times your very first leaves will fall off.

I wouldn't flush soil because nutrients are released on watering. I grow hydro so I do flush for any excess, imbalanced nutrient salts every 2 weeks to a month during veg. So take my soil recommendation with a huge grain of salt.
