Dealing with nutrient burn, and removal

Dameon187 said:

I'm inquiring specifically on a nutrient situation. I'm not in the Freak Out stage, stage of flushed yesterday once. Today heavy rain, still seeing burning on leaves. It's affecting new leafs. As well as it's continuing to burn some others that were already burned. Personally I don't mind those ones to continue to burn rather than . I've done some defoliation as I'm late prior to flowering , this is very late though. I understand I'm wasting energy holding on to these leaves, it says these leaves are sucking energy from bed sites. If there's still nutrient in abundance throughout the plant. I would rather burn the leaves and new Bud sites. My questions are, does a nutrient burnt Leaf contain high levels of nutrients. Which it will continue the pass through the plant. It's an outdoor plant, once it dries I will defoliate again, trying to reduce waste of energy. However I'm going to try just clipping the ends of the Leafs instead of the whole Leaf itself so I can retain some. Or it'll continue to burn that I guess.

Leaves are the plants power source. Don't remove leaves unnecessary. A nutrient burnt leaf is dieing because the plant cant take up the nutrients because the food is to concentrated causing lockout or very slow uptake. Their is a difference between mobile and immobile nutrients. We need more info like what are you growing in... what food do you use, how much do you feed and how often? Pictures really help

I will add on to this with be careful with your nutrients. Especially if you're trying to do organic they can get very powerful. I'm growing in the 5 gallon pail opened up the bottom. Sitting on a 3-in-1 mixture. Within the pot is topsoil 3 in 1 Weed Free,premium formulation of organic dark humus, sustainable Canadian sphagnum peat moss and compost. It also contains PROFILE porous soil amendment. Just getting back looking at them, stinking I have some sort of deficiency possibly as well consequence of Flushing. Also looks like it has slowed down. Possibly one more flush it's mid-afternoon late afternoon is that okay been hot all dayView attachment 5319278

It's a guessing game. Your plants new growth looks great. I think your soil was to charged at the beginning for the young plant and burt up some leafs/locked up. Did you transplant into the bucket or has it been there the whole time. That would rule out transplanting into hot soil.

been there for a bit. there are layers under, rest of bucket 3 part soil mix moss organ compost.. then i hit cla.. thick cla.y. i might think it burned getting into fresh compost maybe. and i feed her and locked her out. she drains well.. taking 3 days of 15g flush.. locks like she is in need of some calcium.. still gettting more groth as well. so i like to fix her up
