Hi,
The Ocean Forest has way more than enough nutrients (especially nitrogen) for a month or so without any additional fertilization at all. Too much fertilizer makes leaves curl.
Also, the soils look pretty damp in the pics. are they staying wet all the time?
Could be drowning a bit. A good moisture meter can help greatly with this.
Watering is always a tough thing to get down even for the most experienced gardener of any sort.
Basic rules of thumb are: When in doubt, DRY IT OUT! The idea is to water thoroughly when you do water BUT THEN let the ROOT ZONE of the plant dry half way out before watering again. I would'n't fertilize every watering either. Nutrient salts build up in the soil and cause havok with pH and root up take of nutrients.
The plants look like they need a little drying and maybe a break from the feeding. Hope this helps a bit. Happy Gardening! GrowIT!

Even if the genes are bad, it can still be a healthy plant. But the bud isn't going to be as potent.
