Soil that contains nutrients question

I am using roots organic soil and people say it will feed for 3-4 weeks then you need to add nutrients. People also told me when you transplant into bigger pots, the plant will eat new nutrients contained in the new soil you used for transplanting.

So once my plants get 3-4 weeks old, if I transplant into a bigger pot will and use my own nutrients will it cause nute burn since I have added new soil and used my own nutrients?

I use roots soil along with promix and I feed them once I make sure there's no transplant shock. And my mix is promix, greenfields, and 707 all mixed up in a tarp

Ok thanks.
If I am going to transplant a plant soon and I am using nutrients, do I need to flush the plant with water before transplanting? Once transplanted should I give it water or nutrients?

For the first week after transplant just water and no you don't need to flush before transplanting. What nutrients you running. Also I'm a non flusher but I do mainly organic.

If you are up-potting to a considerably larger pot and adding quite a bit of soil id start the 3 weeks over, there should be enough in the soil for them to eat and u may overfeed if u start feeding liquid nutes into fresh soil.

NEVER FLUSH UNLESS YOU KNOW YOU HAVE OVERFED
