    I'd say it depends whether you used nutes or not. If you haven't there'd be little point I think. My philosophy anyway, I'm open to be corrected though so don't know for sure. I suppose if you had really rich soil in large pots it might be needed maybe.

    Its called Molasses, one particular type and apparently the better one to use is Black Strap as Javadog was referring to in the post above. It is meant to improve the yield, dunno about taste. I've used it but to be honest couldn't tell the difference. You need to grow out 2 clones in same conditions and give one Molasses and do a comparisen to see the difference I would expect. Hmmm might try that actually. There's loads of threads about it mate, do a bit o reading.

    Not exactly flushing for 10 days. You flush around 10 - 14 days before harvest then only give water if necessary after that. You wanna try let it dry out as much as poss before chopping, helps speed up the drying process a little.

    No that's a normal water mate. A proper flush needs at least 3 times the size of pot so a 15 litre pot needs about 45 litres of water to flush. I tend to do a slow constant flow. But to be honest, by the time you've done about half of it I'm pissed off with it and sack it off - tedious task. I tend to avoid using nutes in soil so flushing isn't necessary.

    to add to what the lil hopper stated the water should run clear to ensure all nutes removed but a lil bio-degradable dish soap may help it flow as it wets your water
