Overfed, flush....do a big flush

Thats N toxicity I bet it looks very dark green too

okej thanks. yes they are pritty dark green. there is only like 2 plants that looks like this. maybe they have more sensitive genetics than the rest of them...

ok thank for answer. flush it is...
 
If only.some have it maybe you watered inconsistently and salts built up. I flush weekly at 1/4 strength nutes, 5ml/g cal/mag, and 3x the volume of the pot.

thanks for the help.
the plants are now flushed. lets hope the plants will recover good.

is it a good idea to keep giving the plants nutrients, but minimizing the amount of N in the nutrient-mixture ? or is it better to just water with normal tapwater for a couple of weeks and then slowly start giving the plants nutrients?

your plants have really way too much N, so adding more N by fertilizing again would be a bad idea.
i wouldn't fertilize for at least 2 weeks, then you will see, if the plants need anything. but i doubt it.
the problem with overfeeding N in flowering is, that it isn't needed much and will stun the development quite long.
don't try to push growth with fertilizer. it doesn't work that way. it's a common misunderstanding with beginners.
just fertilize when the plants need it. rather to few, than too much.
next run, fertilize way less and see if you get deficiencies.
if so, then the next run, add a little more fertilizer a little earlier than the time u got the deficiency.
with every grow you do, you will get better at reading your plants needs, as long as you pay attention and keep reading.

always keep in mind: much light, much air, "low" temp, low nutrients.

there are also mother "nutrients"
nitrogen can be flushed but other bind to the soil and cant be flushed so easilly

watering them through a few times with a good almost-drying-all-the-way in between until the leaves uncurl would be my
