Looks like a dieing plant. Why did you allow all the root mass on top of the soil? This the same plant you posted from 9-5? Wow she uprooted itself or ???

So today I'm waiting for my ppm equipment to come in then I'm going to dump my water and mixes and start over with giving them nutes again
Correct. That's not flushing that's tapering.
PPM Equipment? What have you been using for metering your solutions?
"Dump my water"? Are you running a separate RDWC grow?
I like to use this chart from Aptus to let me know when I need to change feed ratios for the phase the plant is in....this applies to photoperiod plants. Not sure if Auto follows the same path.

I've been using PH testing strips for the water, a 3-1 spike for soil, and ml droppers for measuring the nutrients pergallon
And no in not running and RDWC grow. I have a seven gallon water container with pre ph'ed water, and two-1 gallon jugs of nutes that I mixed last week. It's all worked up until now. But I'm dumping it all and starting over using the more precise measuring equipment

Pre-pHed? You do realize that pHed water left sitting in a container for more than 12 hrs will change pH right? Pre pHing is not necessary. pH once you have all your inputs in the water.
What measuring equipment did you get? I always encourage people to pick up a BlueLab Growers Toolbox for meters. The kit contains both pH and EC/PPM meters with multiple calibration pouches of water for both meters. Aptera makes a good pH meter too.

Ok guess ill stop doing that.

ML droppers
a kit with electronic ph and PPM meters with these ph adjusting packets.

yes that's what I'm doing

When you mix your feed solution DO NOT pH your water base.....yet. Add your inputs like normal. If you have an ec/ppm meter now is the time to check your ec/ppm levels. If you've measured everything out correctly take note of the ec/ppm for future reference. Now that you've noted your EC/ppm you can pH the solution and adjust accordingly. If you're in soil typically 6.5 is where you want to land. If you're in hydro then 5.8.
Here are some availability/pH charts to help you understand how pH affects your plants. Note that one is for soil and the other is for water/hydro.
