flushing is just using water to remove salt build up or excessive fertilizers from the soil commonly done when overfertilized where large amounts of water is put through the growing meduim, it has also been used sometimes when you are close to harvest to remove excessive ferts that could affect the taste of the buds.

Check out GrowReport 22 that was covered already. If you still have questions then just ask but I don't think you will.

Sorry for the plug for the show but the information you are asking for is in MP3 format and just out so the timming was great; enjoy.
