Since they're obviously overfed, it'd be nice to get a PPM reading of your runoff:

Which is measured by just adding water, and collecting the water rolling out of the bottom of your pots and testing the PPM of that.

I would honestly start there, to see if it's even worth mixing up a fresh batch of nutes. You might have enough in there already to last a few waterings!

Why don’t you try taking a step back and just running soil, dry amendments and only tap water?

This, it’s easy af and you can grow dank with very little work. Just take any premium organic potting soil and top dress with dr earth use fabric pots especially if you tend to over water. Then just water, throw in some molasses and microbes if you want to be fancy but that’s it. You’re making it harder than it needs to be.

You've always seemed like a good dude and I'm glad that you're going deep. I was on years of autopilot until I changed my setup and began running into problems. I realized that I had basically been a lucky hack with a minimal understanding, and needed to do all of the homework that I didn't really think was necessary back when I was just following directions and getting good results.

Good deal. If you haven't hit all the usual sources to suss out the meaning of much of the tech side of things, now is a great time. I made a file (actually just a draft email on one of my gmail accounts) and I saved every page/link where something was described in a good/easy way to understand. Then if I have a question about PPFD/DLI I have links, or VPD Charts, suggested PPM for stages of feeding, etc.

There's some bro-science on growweedeasy but there's lots of good intro information there too. I also like the Royal Queen Seeds blog for good concise info that's easy to assimilate for example their feeding one: https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/blog-how-to-use-cannabis-nutrients-n329

Once you go through that stuff and use it for a whole grow, stuff starts falling into place though there's always more to learn.

Looking forward to seeing what you do and how it comes out.
