I haven't used FFOF. It has time-release nutes in it, yes? Maybe flushing activated a lot of that, like you say, piled up in 1 area. I know that can happen to folks who use MG soil. The answer is still flushing. The other likelihood is that your pH is really out of whack. Do you monitor/control that?

oo shit, might be ph prob, but fox farms ocean forest does not have time release nutes of any sort in it...
the thing is ive kept it constant, and after last watering this shit starts to happen, i use distilled waiter, no nutes, if i did its organic blend..

this looks similar somewhat to what happened to other plants i have got massive burns and flushing cured it, but i flushed once and shit happens..

if i flush gain within say 2-3 days of flushing/watering will it "overwater" the plant and hurt it any way? thats the only way to fix this burn... right?


lol 420 who cares haha

Im doing my first grow and i had a similar problem where the fan leave stems were turning red and the leaves began to turn yellow and fall off the plant moving upwards. I believe that this is caused by overwatering because i have only one plant with this problem and i have an automatic watering system that i realised was giving way too much water to this one plant. Im 6 weeks in with NO fan leaves :/ im not sure if you can turn the plant back to normal by watering less. I hope this helps, good luck

[/FONT]You must flush again, so do it as soon as possible. Sure, the roots may drown a little, but they are suffering as it is. That soil drains well, so it'll dry pretty quick. The sooner you get the flush over with, the sooner your roots will get oxygen again and your plant can recover. Test the runoff water when you flush. Keep flushing until the desired range is reached.

Don't delay!

this is definately a water issue let you soils dry out almost completely, stick ur finger in the soil up to ur middle knuckle if its moist ur good... u want ur roots to search for water, big roots = big buds. notice how your leaves are sagging this is due to water weight... and the yellow is basically because your plant is running on water at the moment. every1 says to cut nutes off, dont, use a 1/16th mixture of food and pure water this should bring your leave back around and give your plant something to eat besides water..it need energy to bud

1st rule of thumb-after flushing u need to resume normal feeding. they are starved-prob now too by overwatering. those are P deficiencies coupled with N, maybe P and mg as well.

6 week sin on an indica- u prob got 2-3 to go so those fans are just doing their job-it is when it spreads to the older fans on the actual bud stem that u will need to worry. kind of like u r flushing too early.

if u keep flushing, the o2 delivered is very short lasting and does no good at all to them. so stop flushing.
my suggestion would to be punch a coupe more drainage holes. u r gonna have to wait until soil is dry b/c feeding them nutes in already waterlogged soil will be the worst thing . the fans will continue to do what they do and provide the new growth with whats needed. u are just early here-yield loss less than 10%. next time around feed them with 1/2 strength and than again same thing next time.

next grow-dont flush without renuting in flower-veg is ok but flower-

ok ok ok, i am getting different answers here..

what i have done is normal watering schedule say every 5 days, id water them with a mix of mg ca n and potash an organic blend in the right proportions.. if anything, it is a 1/6th strength mix of what "normal" recommended is.. i know for fact that it isnt overwatered, i know the water levels in the plant and on the meter doesnt even go much above half, but i remember last watering i sprinkled some nutes on the soil and watered it in, now i have problems, so it seems it MIGHT be nute burn from my POV. because i did the same on my new babies and in the pics shows what happened to them, seems to be kinda similar, i flushed and the water way very strong with nutes... now they are fine


it seems to be an ind/sat mix so general bagseed should be good to go 8-10 weeks right?, only 20% orange hairs tricomes clear.. so i have not flushed yet, i am on normal watering,

but i was kinda worried when i see the leaves like dried up like they are being dried to death, and wasnt sure if it was water or nutes i overdid, i just needed some input on the things it might be.

tomorrow i am going to get galls of distilled n flush it through.

man these are all deficiences or lockout-flushing will worsen the problems. unless u follow up with nutes. those last pics are not nute burn-could be deficienct if u r using 1/16 but more likely waterlogged roots not being able to uptake the available nutes

its ridiculous you guys say overwater lol

this morning i check the moisture is 0.. on my flowering...


on those new pics of the smaller plants that was indeed lockout/burn because i overdid the nutes it locked shit out?

all i did was flush ONCE and they are 100% fine and happy dandy now... not overwatered lol.. maybe the nutes im using have some diff effects than other shit...

lol
