just flushed, now what?

i couldnt figure out why my plants' leaves were browning and dying. i figured it was a Ca and Mg deficiency because the miracle grow fertilizer didnt have either in it. It didnt work so i figured it was nute burn from built up nutrients in the soil (i have shitty soil, no drainage) so i just flushed it thoroughly. will it start to show overwatering signs? should i water it again with my nute solution?

let yoru soil dry... until its cracking/beginning to crack on top.

regular watering again after that, is your water good? (that is, if youre using hard water are you leaving it sit out for a day to release chlorine?)

and how many leaves and where on the plant(s)?

Keep flushing. Then flush some more. When you are done flushing, give your plants one more flush because that's what the internet growers suggest.
