Was showing signs of phosphorus deficiency or calcium despite feeding both I believed I was experiencing nute lock out . Or from the forum the high nitrogen could be outpowering the uptake .

I decided to flush the soil to try and clear out any salt build up and attempt start fresh and feed only pk . I flushed with a good 11gallons of pH water 6.0 The grow bags are 3gal

Checked 6 hours later and the deficiency has progressed rapidly

Definitely the wrong time to do such a hard flush. Could've just lightly flush them at every watering until you reached desired ppms and would've came out much better.
Hopefully they dry out on the fast side so you can start feeding and getting them back on track in a hurry.

Leaf damage often takes days or weeks to appear
It isn't reversible
