What is wrong with my girls??

Hi people,
ok i'm a grower with experiance and know how and i'm stumped.
The plants are in 6in rockwool in 4x8 trays. EBB FLOW 4X A DAY 15 MINS EACH CYCLE ONLY DURING LIGHTS ON CYCLE.
Two weeks into bloom with three part gh and liquid karma and bud candy the ph is 5.8 and the ppm is like 1300 1500 the plants looked great and i flushed them to trans to aggresive bloom and this is what thay did. I've never seen leaves do this curling up then down???????
I'VE HAD THEM FLUSH FOR 2 DAYS NOW AND THE PROBLEM IS ONLY GETTING WORSE. I DON'T WANT TO ADD ANY FERTZ RIGHT NOW BECAUSE THEY LOOK SO STRESSED. I DID RUN OUT OF THE BUD CANDY SO I GAVE THEM SOME MOLASSIS (IM SURE I SPELLED THAT WRONG) THE UNSULPHANATED KIND. I DON'T KNOW IF THAT MIGHT BE THE PROBLEM?
I'm hoping there overwatered and have taken them off water and wanted to know if anyone has seen this before or has an idea.
TONIGHT IS THE FIRST NIGHT WITH NO WATER, MY LIGHTS COME ON AT 9PM SO I'LL SEE WHAT THE GIRLS LOOK LIKE IN THE AM.
I'M THINKING THEY ARE OVERWATERED BECAUSE WHEN I FLUSHED THEY I SUPER FLUSHED EM BECAUSE THE PPM WAS LIKE 1800 AND I WANTED TO BE SURE THAY WERE CLEARED OUT BEFORE I TRANS THEM.
BUT AS I'M IN ROCKWOOL THIS IS CURIOUS TO ME.
ASLO THE WATER AT MY HOUSE IS NO GOOD(SOMETHING I LEARNED EARLY ON IN THE FIRST GROW HERE) SO I GOT A LOAD OF WATER FROM A CITY WATER SOURCE WHEN NORMALY I GET WELL WATER I DON'T KNOW IF THIS COULD BE A CHLORINE PROBLEM.
THE WATER I USED TO FLUSH WITH HAD SAT IN THE WATER TANK FOR ABOUT 3 DAYS IN THE HOT SUN SO I DON'T KNOW IF THE WATER MAY HAVE EVAPORATED LEAVING A HIGH CONCENTRATION OF CHEMICALES IN THE CITY WATER??????
I DID PH THE WATER TO 5.5 BEFORE FLUSHING.
Thanks YOUR GUIDED HELP WOULD BE GREAT I'M TOTALY LOST HERE:wall::wall::wall::wall::wall:

If thats not the case then I am with wyteboi and say that is heat stress. But then again I must ask, what is your relative humidity at? And are your fans directly on your plants. Because low humidity and constant airflow on plant foliage can give you the same kind of results your seeing. I.E Burning, shriveling or maybe even permanent wilting of your plants. I guess we will just have to wait and see. []Deace!

thanks for all the feedback i sure hope it's overwater from the flush i'll see tonigh at 9 will be 24 hours no h2o. how long do you think it will take to recover from my over water flushing. do you think i have damaged my yield alot???? thanks you

no you havent damaged the yield YET. but thats a big YET . again i am not hydro but 4x a day for 15min an none when lights off is too much water? ???? i am not being a dick i just would like to know from the water guys ? i know they dont do much drinkin at night but that just seems like they would dry up too much in a 12 hour period ? well then again rockwool proly holds more then i think ?

Yea I don't think its a watering issue. Rockwool retains a decent amount of moisture. I honestly think your thermostat is on the fritz cus that really looks like heat damage. But then again we will have to see. And if the problem persists then yea it could affect your overall yield. But lets wait and see. []Deace!

the only other thing I could think is the molassia might have been fermented?? I spend alot of time in my room and have the ac on 24/7 the room feels likr the thermos read I do have two just to make sure. but the water I flushed with was like 200 gallons that sat in the sun for three days and was city water I don't know much about chlorine but is there a chance that may have done this. I had used the water from that source before with no problems. But this time it sat in the sun for three days. I don't know what the hell. I'll go get one of those laser treroms and see what the temp is right on the plant tops. I'll let you know. Thanks

hey ya I have two termos and I think thats good i have the ac on 24/7 and the room feels like the term reads. what about bad or fermented molassis??? The fans arent right on the plants just the right amount of leaf shake u know. Thanks

them rockwool cubes could not have been wet still after 24 hours? That is NOT overwatering , hurry up and water those. It could be the water (not the clorine cause its gone in 3 days) as far as salt buildup goes just look and feel down in the res and make sure its all clean and fresh.

Ok well i flushed them last night with ep salt and than put them back on to a light feeding 600 ppm and i guess i think they got chem burned. That is all i can figure now. Here are some pics from aout an hour ago. Let me know what you think. Please

yea with those pics an that info , i would have to agree with u and say keep the food "light" for now and they should snap right out of it...... i would go ahead and take some of the damaged leaves off there and keep a very close eye on the other leaves. Again it dont look like u hurt ur crop yet but just keep an eye on them.
