personally i dont allow build up to occur, but if i have to flush then 3x pot size followed by 1/4-1/2 your current strength nutes straight after.
Do you measure EC or anything of your runoff?
By testing and comparing EC in vs EC out you can see how plants are feeding.
if the runoff EC rises then your nutes are too strong so back off a little.
If your runoff EC lowers then you can increase.
The key is to find where the plants are feeding without build up.

ppm meter is another way to test your nutes.
if ppm rises in your runoff decrease your nute strength
if ppm falls in your runoff increase strength.
you should get to a point where your ppm decreases slightly coming out thats where the plants are feeding happily.
Also make sure with coco that you feed everytime you water , the odd plain water day is ok, then towards harvest day start using plain pH6 water for 7-14 days.
