Plants dying, is this nute burn?

Im genuinely clueless, so i apologise for that.
I grow these im a greenhouse, only about 50% of plants are affected.
About ten days ago, i overfed them, about 2x what they needed. I saw first signs of nute burn after that. Since then ive only given them water, but the plants are just going downhill. Based the pictures does it look like severe nute burn? Can i just ride it out by giving them straight water?
If youre curious, i only have one other post where i shared pictures of the plants at first sight of sickness.
Any advice is appreciated, like i said, i really know nothing.

its ok, continue with water, only when container is super light(but before wilt).
next week if all good begin nutrients again, maybe be more careful? and dont use fox farms, just sayin....
google rosenthal grow bible, all will be well.

Thank you. Right now the soil is dry to my second knuckle, this is usually when I would water again. Do you reccomend leaving for another 2-3 days?
 
Pick up the pot, feel the weight.

That [plant isn't going to like all the wood in that soil mix.
Can't you just dig a hole there and plant it out?

water when the pot is light only. quit fingering your containers, thats just weird man.
two fingers in the pot is useless, thats the first place to dry out. I find my weed grows better in drier soil than in wetter soil for thought.

One more question for anyone seeing this. Should I leave the dying leafs alone? So all the excess nutes go to them instead of the healthy growth? Just let them fall off or should I cut them off?
 
when the container is light ..

add 1/4 the container size volume -in water all at once.
2 gallon of dry dirt wants 1/2 gallon of water, etc

What type of soil they are in?
 
The tips of the leaves don't look burnt, no clawing, and they are a nice shade of green. Looks like Calcium Deficiency. How did they react the third day after the "overfeeding"? Let the leaves fall on there own. Just make sure to pick up all dead leaves or risk pest.
