Flush the last 2 weeks of flower, fill res with only water and maybe some molasses or bud sweetener. Adding sweetener is all up to you.

Good Luck.

If your plants are like mine( 5 gallon buckets) you dont need to flush for 2 weeks.I flush for 3 days sometimes 4, my plants will drink almost 2 gallons a day at the end. What i do is drain all water in my res and run 3 or 4 gallons through just to get everything out of it and off the roots, then refill with 3 gallons of water and molassas at 700 ppm. then just let the plant drink that up and keep adding plain water until my ppm goes down to about 100 ppm,cut and cure, smooth as hell .Some people do the molassas for weeks but imo hydro is supposed to be quicker so why wait so long.

No need to flush in DWC unless you are using a dense medium with poor drainage or you have given them high strength nutes over 1000ppm .5 conversion or over 1400ppm .7 conversion for an extended period of time.Flushing is a never ending debate some 4 some against.

change your res every couple weeks. when you change the res do your nutes; in between those res changes only top off with regular water.

i flush it every 2 weeks and it makes it taste better for me that way and it saves me from dealing with and fert problems
 
Same, with DWC I don't believe you need that 2week flush. A week maximum, but like the guy said above 3-4 days even does it. HTH
