So, I was told to flush my plant's because the tip's were turning brown/yellow, only 9 day's into flowering. So I flushed them yesterday. Woke up this morning and the leaves were curled a little bit on some leaves..4 hour's later. One of my plant's is all shrivled up and look's like it's dead. What should I do? Are the rest of my plant's just going to do the same thing because I flushed them? Should I put them outside to let the soil dry out??
HELP

AND, im 9 day's into flowering, so will transplanting effect them horribly? Or should I go through with it? Grrrrr, I thought they would just get over watered if I flushed them...what the hell..

I am using MG soil with MG nutes and I had nute burn. So these guy's told me to flush it, so I flushed it yesterday and today the leaves are all wilted and deformed. What should I do? Should I transplant or just try to salvage them how they are. Givin, that I haven't discovered if any are females yet, only day 9 into flowering. But I hve no clue what I should do. Should I just let them die and start a new batch? Im already this far into it, with these plant's, I would definately like to salvage something. Any help is GREATLY appreciated!

And none of my plant's have white leaves. The leaves may appear white beacuse of the light reflecting off them, or shining on them, but that's it.

that soil has nutes in it and by flushing it, you released all the nutes in the soil. thats what killed your plants.

without seeing the victims, and the extent to how shriveled they are, i cant tell you if its salvageable. anything that is burnt and dried and shrivled wont grow back, so trim it off. if the plant doesnt have enough green leafs to sustain life, just scrap the thing

unless your plants are older than 3 months, i dont think youll need nutrients any time soon, as that soil you have is supposed to feed your plants for 3 months

only the plant that I took pic's of above, is really devistated from the nute burn/overwatering...I guess ill transplant my other three plant's into some dry soil.....I only have MG soil right now though...

Brady, first of all, why are you flowering when they are so small? I would have waited to have a healthier bigger plant. Are you sure you don't have any bugs? Check inside of the curled up leaves. If you had nute burn, you could just back of the nutes a bit instead of going too far the other way. Have you been feeding every other watering or 2 water and 1 nute?

you can manually pull out all of the little green balls that contain nutrients. its a hassle, but your plants wont burn from being flushed.

so, if those pictures are of the plant in question, i think it will recover. just dont water too often, let the soil dry between waterings, and you shouldnt have this problem.

the problem is defiantly caused by the MG soil though

I definately don't have any bug's. And they were about 6 inches when I started flowering. I started out with some really weak light's and someone told me that I could go ahead and start flowering at that height. It had like 4-5 nodes when I started flowering. But since I started flowering, they haven't been growing real fast, rather slow actually. And I already threw that plant away, although I topped one, with 2 nodes on it, dipped it in some schultz, take root and have it going right now, along with 3 other plant's that are doing A LOT better than the one I took a pic of. I figured, I would just look at it, as if that plant were a male and I had to dispose of it. So I disposed of it and now I feel great. :) I am just going to keep the other plant's out in the sun for now, to try the soil, then im going to NOT water them for a while and hope that they start growing and at least one of them is a female. I don't know if the clipping will take root, just by me dipping it in "take root" and planting it. I think I was suppose to keep it in some water or something. IDK, we'll see if it grow's. And I put it in MG soil, hopefully I won't have to feed it at all, EVER. :) What do you guy's think eh?

I think you'll have to put more effort into it if you want something worth growing. Remember GIGO = garbage in = garbage out. You reap what you sow and all that stuff. Oh yeah, if you fail to plan, plan to fail. I'm saying that as a friend. Yes it's weed but if you want ganja, you have to work, plan, and pay for it.

Oh ya, I definately understand that. Being my first grow though, it's kind of a trial an error. You make a mistake and then you just don't make it again. That's life. Next grow, I won't use MG, ill have a better setup, ill have more patience..lol..It's easy to see those thing's in hind site. Thank's though, I do appreciate it! :)

BUT, if my other plant's start to wilt up like that, I should just leave them be pretty much right, until the soil dry's out quite a bit...Gotcha...Thank's guy's a lot!!
