If you are asking how to flush your soil of nutrients, i don't know and will wait for soil growers to help.
If you are asking how to flush your hydro system before harvesting, I recommend using a rinse solution (like Flora Clean or something like that) for the last two weeks before harvest. Then drain your reservoir and deny all water for 24-48 hrs. before harvesting.

How big is the plant and what is the reason your flushing?Im going to have to flush one of my plants but have no clue on how to do it. Isn't this going to cause overwater and root rot? I am clueless on how to go about this. Thanks.

All you need to do to flush soil is water normally with plain water for 10-14 days.

when i get a little nute burn i just feed um water normall dose till they pick up seems 2 work .
I take my plant to the sink and slowly pour a few gallons of water on letting the excess go down the drain, wait a little while and repeat 1 or 2 more times. This would be if there was some serious nute burn or I thought I might lose the plant. I don't want to stress them any more than I have to.

You need to water thoroughly, not so much frequently. If your soil is dry, water the plant until water comes out of the bottom of the pot. This ensures all of your soil is moist and also leaches salts every time you water. Collect the runoff and check the ph of that water, as long as it is only 10-15 % runoff. Also, if your water is running around the soil in the pot and not through the soil, add a couple drops of detergent to your water so it will penetrate the dry soil.
