I think bigmanc meant "1 gallon to 7 gallon transplant" back when he wrote "1g to 7g".
lol oops strokes eh

well watering till run off with that much of a jump would be an issue
how long is the longest they have stayed wet in the new pots...

Not sure if I missed it but what is the feeding level/interval. Have you checked the PH going in and out (run off). You don't need to flush them to check this.

I feed my pro mix media 600ppm total, and that's starting with 220 TAP. Feed every watering using PBP. Also Pro mix ph media should be 5.8-6.2 I felt mine was pretty stable in that aspect, staying at 6 to 6.2 without me having do to anything, not even adding dolomite lime. I re use the same stuff over a year later still. Im able to re use it immediately, with no flush either. Last 3 weeks of bloom they get straight water so that helps the whole cycle work without issues.

Sometimes if I think Im doing too much nutrient, I give just one plant straight water and compare the response.

Also you went from 1G to 7G transplant ? I would imagine it would take a long time to dry out completely after for awhile. I do Cups>1G>2G>3G, 2 weeks apart, and last transplant to 3G is 2-3 weeks before flip.

How long have they been in the HPS room? How long in the new pots? Sometimes mine get stressed at flip when Im switching rooms to completely different envirionment because not only are they switching to 12/12 overnight, but the RH, TEMP, light levels, airflow nutrient solution are different.

Il check with a plant or 2, flushing takes hours and hundreds of litres
I would flush with a flushing agent such as Cyco Kleanse or H&G Drip clean. There may be other alternatives to those I'm unaware of. Just flush for a number of days...like maybe 4. See if they perk up and lower the gavita's to maybe 600W

The old " less is more " theory. It's a clue that they were all affected the same way. Give them a rest from heavy light and nutes for a few days and see if that helps or worsens the situation.
600 is still pretty bright.

I can’t really monitor my co2 as I use a regulator and it’s calibrated by the lxwxh of the room. Il be turning the lights down to 600w see what I’m left with

Day 34 from flip for some Greenpoint seeds Pig Whistles and lone Night Rider. If it wasn't for the male flowers each are popping I would be really excited about these. But not even half way through flowering I am already sick of trying to find and pluck them. Doesn't help that my eyesight is shit lol
