Sorry to be askin,I'm sure the answers are here,but my monitor is fried and I'm usin a piece of shit tv for a monitor,so I'm roughin it a little. Here is what I posted in my journal.
Ok. First some background. Rinsed them with 2 gallons each before I left for the weekend. Got back they all grew a lot. Especially the Mendocino Purp. She has no problems. I am thinking that I didn't actually rinse but overwatered. All the shit that layed dormant just activated hot. Thought maybe the light,but that's not it. Good temps as well. Thought maybe I had a defficiency and gave them a light foliar feed,because the soil is still wet. They got much worse. All pics are labeled by plant. The Strawberry Cream and the Oddysee are in the earlier stages. SC the least. Mendocino had pure soil. Wondering if the Amazon Bloom in the others had a lot left to give,and when I gave em only 2 gallons it activated it. UB is extremely weak and can barely hold her self up. Nothin good goin on. Got confused when different leaves were curling in different directions. Extreme browning on the tips. I have some Romeo 18-18-18. Thought about doing a rinse with that on one,seems pretty neautral. Do another with straight water. And see what happens. Do I just need to rinse the living shit out of em? Did I not use enough? Not sure what to do. Lol. And I lent my damn book out.Plus wondering if maybe they need to dry out. Any input is welcome.​

Do you PH your water? My first thought was PH fluctuation, second was nute burn. How often do you feed them, what do you feed them, and how much?
Edit: and they do look overwatered.

Usually only water about once a week. PH is about seven. Not sure how to deal with this shit because the soil is still wet. If I try to lower the PH I have to water. Should I spray her with some lower ph'ed water? And the nute burn is what got me wondering if maybe I shoulda used more water when I flushed em. How much water should I have used per 3 gallon pot? Only used 2 gallons. Read people usin 5 gallons plus.

Usually flushing plants is 2-3 times the volume of the medium they are in. If you are using 3 gallon pots then you should be flushing with 6-9 gallons of ph'd water. You need to adjust your watering schedule to allow them to dry out again after flushing. 7 is an okay ph, on the high end of okay for soil, but still okay. I give mine 6.5-6.8. Spraying with ph'd water wont do anything anyways. If I were you, and the plants could wait, I would let them dry out and perk back up before doing a proper flush.

You still haven't said how much, what, or how often you feed them.
