So if I were to use Epsom salt how much per gallon? And would I need to add it to every watering?

I'm not sure if I would give her a flash. I might let it dry out just a little bit and then feed superlite doses of Epsom salt and nitrogen.
Ok going to go pick some up now and probably start a small dose tomorrow when I water it

So maybe start off with like 1/4 or 1/3 of a gram and would I need it every watering?

You should give a plant straight tap water for the first month or so until those little round green leaves at the bottom called cotyledons turn yellow and shrivel up, they contain all the fertilizer the plant needs until they die off.

All plants have cotyledons not just cannabis, any plant will survive just fine in plain water for the first month or so. After the cotyledons die off and shrivel up the plant will start to lighten in color a bit, signaling that it's time to start light feedings...

Why all the guess work ? Just flush them and start back up. Guessing and adding shit almost always makes thing worse. And check your pH of the soil and the water. You can add all the stuff you want but if the pH is off it ain;t gonna change anything but make things worse. KISS.

With coco most guys that are successful feed everytime. Coco believe it or not is a form of hydroponics. So you feed eveytime. I would suggest you lose that 20-20-20 that mix is way too hot unless you are going to dilute it accordingly. Feed that gurl she looks to be wanting N and some other issues may be at hand as well. Find your self a reliable coco feed and remember that plant is young so you want to start low and ramp up as she gains mass.

Never let coco dry completly. And feed with every watering. There is a great coco forum here I would suggest you check it out and glean all the information you can from guys that are killn it in coco.
@DrMcSkunkins I have always enjoyed your input, but I am not sure where you are coming from with your suggestion that the cotyledons will be sufficient for nutrition for a month or more. Especially in coco. You can with a good quality soil get away with a month of no ferts but again not in coco!! peace
