Try halving that amount for a week see how you get on if I'm correct you could flush them with normal water then leave them for a few days then start a lower dosage of nutes...

I don't know if id be watering them everyday like that if I was you IMO I'd water thoroughly then let your soil dry before watering again also with the nutes your guna have to give them plain water inbetween nutes in your schedule somewhere ....as far as your issue now It sounds like a overwatering problem to me the roots like dry periods without it your basically suffocating them no oxygen or not nearly enough

If there constantly wet just let em have a dry spell and start watering when the top of your soil is completely dry about a half inch or so down and your doing just fine we all do make mistakes that's how you learn good for you for trying it out

K you flushed so now let em dry real good before you do anything else Believe it or not you can kill em with kindness .......and like said before lots of us have been there it's hard not to to do stuff to them everyday lol at first but I think they'll be alright if you get into the groove on watering letting em dry up inbetween

Even if you havnt flushed yet with plain water just let em dry out like I said til there about a half inch down in your soil once there dry for sure a half inch down then water them until you get runoff out the bottom of your pot ......then let them dry same as before After you let them dryout this time yes I would water them with just plain water on your next watering And as far as how long it will take for them to dry enough for you to water just check em every day and you will get it down pat. If your able to lift your pot then pick it up when it's totally dry like I explained and you can go by how heavy they feel trust me your pots will be a lot lighter when it's time to water Lots of methods just gotta find what works for you that's all

Your girls will definately appreciate the dry period trust me it's just as important as them getting water IMO
