i was told that my plant was burned by nutrients and i flushed it with 2 gallons of water, and the final 1/4 gallon i put some vitamin b1 for root growth, because it was transplanted. now it looks like this, any advice?
after flushing it looks like this... help!

That doesnt look like nute burn...shit, looks like something got hungry. I have nute burn on mine...The leaves turn brown curl inwards and just crust off completely..get all dry and crispy. i might be wrong but i think who told you that is an idiot. With that out of the way.
The plany will look like that from over watering...which happens when you flush soil. Get a fan on it or something will help dry out the soil...It will pick back up...

If that picture is just after you flushed it, I am wondering why you flushed it, how you flushed it, and how much run off you had from the flush ??? VV

why - i had another post and had some pics on it, the leaves were turning downward and the tips were kinda brownish.
how - i bought 2 gallons of distilled water from fred meyer put the pot in the sink and dumped away lol, not literally but i did it kinda slow and all around the pot, a little more in the center where the roots are.
how much runoff - not exactly sure, but i know a lot came out of the bottom of the container.

ok so i checked out my plant this mornin, and its doing better, the leaves have unfolded a bit. i put a second fan in my room, a small 4 incher, turned it all the way low and had it blowing straight toward the plant, onto the soil, and the top 1/4 or 1/2 inch is dry, i turned down my exit fan a little bit and let it warm up a bit in the room, not exactly sure how warm it got in there, but it didnt get too warm tho. i dont have a thermometer hygrometer yet so im jus going off of feel right now. but i think its getting better! yayy haha. you guys have been real helpful thanks much!

Ok thanx. A strange quirk of flushing a plant, plain water doesn't work as well as a solution of 1/4 strength nutes. So what you did is water the plants and that helped out, should tell you something. If you had measured the runoff we could have told better. VV
