Well to begin with you are watering every day. You should let the soil get dry before you water. Second, feeding every other day is WAY too much.

let those babies dry out bro. not to the point that they wilt, but let the soil dry out. feeding every other day is way too much. during veg you should feed-water-water. later on during flower you can feed-water. if you're using distilled water you should really be using a quality cal-mag supplement. i usually administer liquids every 3-4 days. hope this helps, and keep us posted.
-------------------- it's written right here.
it's absolutely clear.

I give it every 3rd to 4th watering as a preventative, at about 3 mls per gallon.

Thank you for replies. Sorry I have not been on sooner. I took it to my grow shop and she said it needs some calimagic and . Couples days after that they came right back.
I water every day cause they start to wilt. The soil dries out very fast with these Smart pots. Move them up to 5 gallon pots. So far they are 2 weeks in to flower now and doing great. Planted 10 seeds and got all girls!!! Will post a pic later. ]
