My ladies need help.

I am not a total noob, but am having issues with this 1 strain. It's called purple lights PH x NL. During veg the girls looked lush and all shot up to at least 3 feet in no time. Now that I'm flowering, different story. Fan and some lower leaves began to turn yellow with brown spots. I cut back on bloom and catalyst but it didn't help. I just flushed the girls and a ton of nutrient (and hopefully salty deposits) were in the brown run-off. The buds look great. Tons of white and even a tiny bit of reddish orange hairs, Loads of trychs. Don't get me wrong, these plants have a lot of leaves, but when you grow under a 1000 watt hps, you shouldn't lose but a tiny bit of leaves. I used Earth Juice Grow for veg and when I cut the light to 12 and 12 switched to earth juice bloom and catalyst. Should i continue to give the plants both the catalyst and bloom at lower levels? Should i just use bloom? Should i give the full dose no that they have been soaked or gradually work my way up to the full dose? I guess I never realized this stuff caused nute burn i have sweet skunk plants that haven't been burned at all with the same dose. Any help is greatly appreciated. My phone takes horrid pics. I will soon take some with my real cam and post. Thanks for helping.

Sounds like flushing was the right thing to do. It also sounds like they may be wanting some Nitrogen. I would put their veg nute back in the schedule, at about half strength. Remember - it takes awhile for changes to show.
