there is no need to water everyday, let the soil dry completely before each watering. Are you using cfl's or incandescent bulbs? What type of soil, how often do you fertilize and at what amounts. And read the growfaq top left it will cover the basics...

You had a nutrient toxicity. And with the size of that pot unnescessary to water everyday. The only time I find myself watering everyday is if my seedlings or clones are in 5 inch containers. Good advice from gangjababy read the growfaq that will help you understand the basics.

the rec amount of fert on the box is too much for a full grown plant, let alone a small plant like yours! You need to work up to 50% strength of the mg. You also need to pH the water to 6.5. It looks like you need to flush your plant because it is damaged from too much nutrients. Flush with 3 times the amount of water to the size of the pot.
