Toes, flushing is mostly in connection with growers using chemical fertilizers. The salts build up in the soil and since they are ussually water soluble the theory goes that they need to be flushed out at times in a grow.
In an organic grow there should be no salt build up that needs flushing away, and organic fertilizers are ussually not soluble so even if you tried to flush you most likely would be wasting your time.
In a organic grow that has a good ewc/compost content (20% is mentioned as ideal) the plant and soil microbes regulate the ph. We also use products with high calcium (lime, gypsum and the like) that also does help keep the ph in line.
So if you are growing in an organic style with a good soil mix that has high end compost at 20% of the mix, and have a light well areated mix with good organic inputs there should be no worries about ph or flushing.
If your growing using organic store bought liquid fertilizers, in my mind, your attempting to grow in a hybrid chem/organic style that may need some more carefull monitering of PH and depending on the solublity of the fertilizers may need tweaking.
I think it's safe to say most of us do not use store bought organic fertilizers because of issues I've listed and instead use dry meals and botanical type teas and compost teas for fertilizers.....scrappy
