can you reverse stunting?

in the middle of my first grow and experienced a few problems along the way in my first month (to the day) in a hydroponics (deep water culture) system.

-nutrient lock out
-->fixed pH after a few days, now on track

-under feeding
---> now on a maitened ppm

-defeciency from lockout

If i keep it in veg after suffering from these ailments, and I am starting to notice a lot of new growth which is positive, will eventually the new growth overtake the old and it will be completely healthy, or will it be permanently stunted and can never reach full potential? Thanks for the help,

-confused

you cant really "reverse" it. what you can do is fix it, which you have. you added a little time to the grow, and hurt your yield a bit, probably not much. you cant put the honey back in the comb. so just try to keep things right from here out. you should be fine.

If you veg until you get a nice plant, you have not hurt your yeild at all.
Just Veg until she is 18-24 " high and let her fill out. Then just before flowering her (one week) take off all the little spindle branches and very lowest that will not get sun.

i suppose i shoulda have used the conjuntion OR rather than AND, but in truth hes probably done both. i know i screwed up earlier in my current grow. and it cost me time for sure, and some wt. for sure. it really depends on how bad you screw up.. i dropped my ph too much, and ended up locking out most lower end nuts, phosphorus, and magnesium mainly. one of my plants, the one that was most affected, has a little over half the buds of most of my other plants

I had a heat wave in veg, lasted a week. I was useing 2 1000 watt mh in a 10x10. First grow and I was a total noob. I on top of heat wave, gave them way too many nutes and added bat guano to FF OC, so they where toasted. I took the out back and flooded them several times to leach soil, then I used Amino Aid. Well I lost 10 but the 7 I saved turned out 3-7 High Yeilds. One was 7.5 oz, rest where 4-5 oz per plant. Dam I am stoned and forgot where I was going with this?
Oh yeah, Amino Aid, great stuff I use it once a week, and it can bring back the dead!

as for pruning then, with the older leaves that are starting to turn yellow and are dying... what should i do with them? The new leaves are turning a nice deeper green (yellow tint from before is fading). and they are sprouting at the nodes which is a good sign. some of the leaves though are almost have burned yet some of the fan leaves are half and half (not sure what to do).??

Once those yellow leaves get 51% yellow, go ahead and clip them off.

aright, took the rest of the yellowed off. lastly, my plants are about a month old, but still very small because of the stunting. I am running about 800 ppm (about 4-6" and 3-5 canopy levels formed). they are looking greener and getting better including new growth on every plant at the canopy nodes (green) but i am making sure i am not over feeding. what is a ppm i should be worried about exceeding and I am making sure my pH is between (6.3-5.5)??
