overwatered question

Hello all recently i transplanted a few plants that were getting fed twice a day in ebb and flow in 5 inch rockwool blocks, they were put in 15 gallon geo pots with soil. after transplanting i watered the shit out of them and hit them up everyday for 3 days which was my mistake. One is drooping really bad the other 2 not as bad, my question will the one ever snap out of it even if i stop feeding it for a few days to dry out? i did the finger test on soil and is still moist, I even poked some holes in the soil so it'd help dry faster but the worst looking one looks like she is gonna die, should i just leave her in and say a prayer . Btw the greenhouse has been reaching mid 90's during the hotter part of the day for the last 2-3 days. thanks

I had one plant that was getting way to much water but I let it dry out for a couples days and watered lightly when needed and she came back in about a week.

those plants hav'nt really spread root out yet..... so up pot... the worst one... it cant hurt {any more than already }....
and repot in fresh DRY soil.... let them roots breath... in a few days if she peps up...
then water lightly.... if she droops.... just foliar feed and hike up the humidity til she either makes or breaks it......

Yeah i can't really just re plant it, all my fresh new soil still isn't dried out. my greenhouse is hot and humid, i might just try lifting the pot and throw it outside and elevate it off the ground?
