Salt build up

no clue

What you should have done is pay attention and not give your plants "way too much nutes":-P in the first place. You can flush. Other than that..wait em out,hope they recover..don't over water

You could flush it good then repot it. Top dressing the soil is a good alternative to nutes. When the plants preflower, thats when its time to top dress for sure.

Thanks for bring this subject Up
On thc**lk i got kick off for talking about this
Had the same user on there

But a few thing I do know
If you let the soil dry out to much this will raise the ec level

So I would drop the pot in a bucket water and let it sit for a couple of mins and remove the pot

Use fresh water with each plant

this will remove most the build up of salt

Do this again as soil drys out and it should clear all the salt in the soil

only watering for a couple of weeks after transplant/re poting is good advice but i would still make sure all the salts build up is out of the roots by flushing or leaving in a bucket of water for a couple of mins, the roots will be submerged in water and most the salt will come out of the root mass and your plants will start looking better in a few days

i all way drop them in a bucket of water before i turn over to flower as this give's the plants a good start in flower

does sound good but never seen anything close to the pot size you are saying

could you please show me a pic with a plant in the pot (681ltrs/150 gals)

and how long does a plant take to fill the pot with roots ? and the yield you get from it

sorry but the largest pot i have use is 50lts and that took 6 weeks

hope you do a grow journal on here :):)
