After the first flush, I didn't water at all for 2 days, just light foliar feeding during dark cycle. Then I watered them lightly every other day, lightly being about1 pint of water per plant, with a 1/4 strength solution of nutes. Before going through with flushing again, think I should go ahad and up the nutes a bit, say to 800-1000PPM, and give that a try? Who knows...maybe my "deficiencies" are not due to a "lock-out", but simply that I haven't given them enough food?

ok ummm... dont mess with your soil if your pH is fine for right now... you look like you have an iron deficiency.... now if the soil's pH is locking out iron from your plant then yes do change the soil's pH accordingly...

the more you mess with your soil the more likely you will f up your pH...

just try for a week to foliar spray your plant with ironite during your night cycle... you can get this stuff at any lowes, home depot, walmart etc...

also start to get a regular watering schedule so you can RELEASE the nutes that are in the soil to your plant on an even dose method... water your plant till driping out of bottom then when the first 4-5 inches of your soil is dry then rinse and repeat... this should be one watering per week or 5-7 days

I think you are drowning them and as a cosequence ya nutes are all over the place.

I use the same intermediate pots as you and I water maybe once a week. Flood em once, 1 minute drain of time then back into the tent for another week. What do you do?

I actually haven't even had the time to get them on any kind of regular feeding schedule. I just brought the clones home 11 days ago, and most appeared in pretty poor shape and didn't have ery impressive root stucture AT ALL I noticed as I was transferring them to 1 gal. pots. fter transferring them to the 1 gal. pots, I watered them (but didn't saturate, maybe that's where I went wrong), anyway, watered them with 1/4 strength nute solution of Botanicare organic ProGrow, Nitrozime, Superthrive, Liquid Karma, Silica Blast, CalMag and Budswell. Strength was only about 450 PPM. I waited 4 days, only lightly foliar feeding, and didn't see any improvement, so not knowing what kind of treatment they had received previously, I went the last ditch route of flushing each with 4 gals. of water Ph'd at 6.3, waited another few days only lightly watering once (about 1 pint each), and still haven't seen any improvement.

My babies are just finishing their dark cycle, I just mixed a solution of the above nutes (750PPM, 6.2PH), and saturated each of them until run-off. I guess all I can do now is sit back and wait to see what happens...

Yep, ya drownin the poor fuckers. far to much.

Don't feed em, don't spray em, just watch. Leave em for a week.

Do nothing else, just watch. Don't expect to much growth but they shoud pick up. You got plenty of vit B in there so hopefully minimal shock

Go by the weight of the pot, when it feels light, really light, feed them again except give em just water, superthrive and which ever root stimulant you use. After that cyce re-introduce ya nutes and you will probably be ready to transplant to bigger pot.

Sometimes less is better my friend.
