Lacking Nitrogen????

This is my first soilless/soil grow. I'm on day 10 of 12/12. I also feed a 2 part solution(Dutch Master A&B along with a bunch of goodies) I fed last night. And today, my leaves on a few of my plants, are showing signs of lacking of Nitrogen(though they were already showing signs of being hungry, prior). The plants that are showing these signs, are 4 of the one's that I let the soil get dry to the point that the leaves were drooping. So what I'm wondering is, how long does it take for the plants to show signs that their not lacking anything, A few days,or what? Should I wait a couple of days, or should I feed it some more, but just the nutrient highest in Nitrogen? Thanks!

Why would pics help??????? Sorry I don't mind posting pics, but I'm not asking for a diagnose. It's lacking nitrogen without a doubt. Please reread my post. All I'm asking is what I should do? PLEASE REREAD MY POST! I apologize, but obviously u guys didn't read my post. A pic is only gonna be a waste of my time, for u guys to say. " oh yeah, it's lacking N" Sorry no offense!

Just feed it nutrients high in nitrogen, its usually the first value in the x-x-x on the bottle, all you really can do. Grow fertilizers are the best for providing nitrogen so try fox farms grow big or another fertilizer of the same sort. good luck

Thank u dude, for reading my post. NOw should I wait a few days, since I just fed them last night. How many days does it take for nutrient intake by root in soil. Is it like Hydro, 3 days? In another words, should I go ahead and feed it N or wait another 2 days? Thanks Brother!

I would say 3-5 days will show results, but just make sure that you don't over feed your plant cuz that will cause some major problems. Just feed with a normal feeding regiment that is high in nitrogen.

Well I'm not sure you should give it any high nitrogen solution. Maybe 1/6 the nitrogen you'd give in Veg. It just needs a nitrogen suppliment, too much N in flower could inhibit flower - I personally have never used a lot of N during flowering so I cannot confirm the results on the growing buds. Although I do experience the problem you're having, my lower leaves start yellowing and dying from the bottom up as the flowering weeks progress. That is natural but adding a little N will help the fan leaves to stay alive. Nice healthy fan leaves during flowering are always good because they are the power houses of the plant. Anyway, good luck, let us know how it turns out.
