Should I cut down and start again?

Ouch. I'm no expert on deficiency or diseases... but that does look bad. Not sure if you can or can't salvage them. Let's wait for someone more experienced to chime in.

Look on the underside of the leaves. Looks like you have bugs. And other nutrient issues.
It's your decision what to do with the plant but that would have already been bin for the compost recyclers if it was me. I wouldn't waste time with that plant but I have so many seeds that popping another one isn't a thing.

Yah I can't see close enough to see if it's fungus or pests

Over fertilizing and possibly pests. Looks like they are tacoing and locking out from overdose. Hard to tell, any more info you can give us? It looks like it is starting to recover but the new tops are still full of nitrogen.

Oh wow thanks mate, I was wondering why I never do well in rockwool, as soon as I go to coco they liven up a million, how do you water with rockwool? I think Over fertilizing is it. I do sometime just feed ph 5.8 water every few days though. but its hard to get runoff with rockwool slabs.
That looks like mites to me! Get a close up under the leaves with a loupe if you can. Let's save these ladies!Here is a close up

I would definitely check for mites, and it looks the the plants are recovering from the nutrient damage.
Peroxide can be damaging also if you have it at too high of concentration and/or let it puddle on the leaves and sit for too long.
give em a good flush and get in close with a magnifying glass under the leaves. Mites are tiny, and not something you can see with the naked eye. Spots like that are classic mite bites, if you got that far with little air flow, then I would really be surprised that this was your issue. Even a cellphone with the right app can get a fairly good Pic.
Did you spray peroxide under high intensity light? Might be spot burn from the droplets

They might be peroxide burns from the small droplets. I would stop spraying, especially if the light is on. Try to keep the humidity 50% or lower at all times, aim for 30%. Unless in veg, then humidity is great.

Rockwool stores a lot of water, so you're not supposed to keep it drenched but wet
What % was the peroxide? You're not really meant to use anything over 3% - 6%

I second this, look at all the whiteish spotting on the leaves. Looks like they're being devoured by pests..
