I have my my buckets and my scrog net will be attached to my room. How do I flush my plants and drainage for the plants? (Soil)

I'm not sure exactly what your asking, if you mean how do you move the plant with it grown through the screen then your going to need to attach the scrog screen to your buckets, here's some DIY portable SCROG screen threads:(-->CLICK HERE<--) (-->CLICK HERE<--) As for flushing/draining, well that will depend on your setup, your budget and your preference, there are many ways to achieve drainage, flushing is just basically rinsing the soil with fresh PH'd water to remove the built up salts, there's really only one way to do it, poor a couple gallons of fresh PH'd water through the soil. For some reason I think I misunderstood your question, did I miss something?

Sativa thanks for that info.
What I was wondering was, the holes on the bottom of your pot - when you water the plant water will come out of those holes? ...onto the floor? (If I can't move the plants)
How do I solve that in a budget friendly way?

You'll either need to use trays (PITA!) or get/build some kind of flood table that drains to a storage tote or reservoir (or preferably an actual drain like in the floor but only if your doing drain to waste, which I believe you are right?), flood tables are pretty dam pricy but there are many very good and cheap DIY flood table designs, pick your poison: (-->CLICK HERE<--)

You can put plastic saucers under the pots..thats how I have mine. I try not to over water,but sometimes if I do I have this cool vacuum pump with hose that fits over onto a 5 gallon bucket so I can suck out the excess
