Flushed, I hope I didn't mess up.

I decided to flush my plants as I've been seeing yellowing, dying leafs, brown spots starting at the bottom. Originally I thought they were just hungry or cal deficiency but I have been feeding ff schedule & cal magic mostly full doses, growing in soil. Ph between 6 and 6.5. Bloom week 5, in 3 gal pots
This is the first time I have flushed, using sledgehammer 2ts per gallon, it took 2 gal between 8 plants with some runoff. I dlsucked up the excess with a shop vacuum, added new sticky papers, some stakes to help keep the stalks up and am hoping I didn't mess it all up!
Now I let them dry really good, and half strength dose for next week- fingers crossed!
Anyone use sledgehammer before? Advise for next feeding? Thanks pics of plants included

Never used Sledgehammer, just plain water to flush out salts.
But the rest of your approach is correct and will pay off for you.

I noticed some nute burn on one plant right before lights out, I hope the water flush helps straighten things out
