I mentioned before that the older girls got a big meal a couple of days ago. Fox Farm Big Bloom recommends 4 T (1/4 cup)/gal every watering and 4oz once a week. I had slowly come up to 4T./gal with just water in between. So the big feeding was 3 oz/gal. The lower oldest leaves started to get brown spots and die. The first one actually got wet and burned by the next morning along with a couple others. they were all low so I hoped they were all wet ones. well over the last 2 days more leaves have been doing the same (see pics above) I mixed up a bunch of pH'd de-chlorinated tap water, then I talked to the dude at the local hydro shop and he suggested since they would be ready for the next watering in another day or so, I should wait and flush with DI/RO water maybe twice vol of pot. I will check the pH of the run off to see if I can gleen anything from it. I don't think I killed them, but definately don't follow the directions on fertilizers! I think I will for the next week or two only give the girls Tap (for minerals/no Cl) water with 1 T. molasses until they complain a little. I really probably should not even have been fertilizing them since they are in such good new organic soil, but I was stupid trying to give them a boost.

Any thoughts?

Thanks again camaro dude! I added some rep for you and grow tech, it won't let me add more right now, but now I know. The girls look good after the flush, starting to really drink up the water, the largest are almost dry already. they have spent the last 5 hours in the box with it closed, house ac on at 73, the bathroom gets cold. I think the box temps have stayed about 84, not too bad I guess, lots of fans on the girls so they are probably ok. The box will work really good once winter comes, or really fall since we don't really have seasons here, but when the house is 65-70 I ought to be good. Time to go see the girls, I could spend hours just hangin with them!

Was there a particular reason you decided to flower them so soon? Also, should have really been no nutes until the plants were asking for them (usually the leaves will start to become a lighter green as an indicator)- let alone a 3oz. dose to a gallon. You will for sure get some repercussions from the OD. I've never used anything but Foxfarm nutes and I've never given anything over the recommended directions (3-4 t)- usually always less than the directions. marijuana usually for the most part is not a heavy feeding plant, some indicas can take some heavy feedings though..

A flush can cause more problems than it would fix- though I think you might make a right choice here, def. nute and salt build up in the soil with the plants so young.. eck. but the flush will take everything good out of the soil. How many times have you nuted the plants thus far total? What color/ how murky is the water coming out the bottom when you water?

Btw, I've seen more people hurt plants with fertilizer then help plants- easy does it...

Thought I stop in I'm pritty sure you won't be waiting with a shotgun behind the door
Growing pains, huh! I feel you mate. Can't help you, I'm in hydro, and even then I'm lucky to keep mine alive,lol.
I think you are in good hands with Hotnsexymilf.
I'm 215 as well, were you in SD?
