Exclamation Hydro LST Several Problems

ok so my specs on this grow are
Water: Bottled Distilled
Ph: 5.5-5.9
Nutes: -Expert Gardener 24-8-16 plant food for veg
-Nutrafin B clear
Light: 150HPS Aircooled Hood with 2 42 Soft Light CFL's also in the hood.
Temp: 77-82f
Humidity: 35-45%
I see several signs on over doing the nutes, and i also had alot of algae growth on the roots, so as soon as i saw the spots and root rot, i ran some water and got all the algae off changed the water cleaned out the tub(with a small amount of clorox) and replaced the air line and the bubble stone.

Now my question is i know i screwed up, are they too far along to save them? Im just running straight Ph balanced water with a small amount of B clear for root rot. Is there anything else i can do to insure they live through this. thanks!

Here are some pics. Also the new growth looks kind of weird.?

They get a lot worse before they get better it all depends on how bad the roots are nuked.

yea i feel ya on that as soon as i watered them with the Nute solution that was to strong i saw spots and burn happen literally like 20 mins later, so i went to DefCon 5 and flushed them ASAP and cleaned and replaced everything with straight Ph adjusted water.

dont think its your nutes really have seen this before what you have done in the first 3 pics is splashed nutes on the leaves(then back under light causing heat and nuke burn) thats your dark brown problem.have you hand watered with nutes?as for the yellowing i think you are correct that is a over feeding of nutes feed at a rate of 25% of a full dose for a few days should cure your problem never flush with just straight water when over nuted it causes drastic unrepairable shock in most cases when they have been overfeed. your algae problem is usually caused by light hitting your nute res so be sure to cover it and keep it out of the light.hope this helps!!!
