Alright. If my soil has way too much Nitrogen in it (I know high nitrogen is good, but not this high), but the right levels of Phosphorus and Potash... Is it fixable, or should I just transplant my baby into fresh and proper soil?

1 month into Veg stage.

I know the issue was probably caused by me, and I know how to prevent it in the future.... I don't quite know how to fix it :P help me please? :]

if you say you say you have a high N value in your soil but have a perfect P and K mix. Then there should be any growth problems just dark green color first then they will adjust to the perfect levels of P ank K that youve supplied.

What is in your soil if you dont mind me asking?
I mean no disrespect ro you brother just want to make sure you come out with clean meds.

What is the problem?

If you'll show me the soil lab analysis I'll take it from here.

That soil is now a worm family's home. I got new dirt, and did not add anything as it was already enriched.

It says 0.30 0.12 0.12 On the bag, 0.07 of each as a slow release. so that's much better. More reasonable anyways.

My old soil was somewhere around 0.6 0.1 0.1 when I tested it.

I seriously meant the nitrogen was way too high :P there were burns on some leaves, so better safe then sorry.

Unfortunately the ground is covered in snow here, so I have a very limited selection in my gardening supplies right now. Most stores have closed their garden section for winter.

your probably getting burns from glare off of the snow making hotspots or the plant not being able to ustilize nutrients properly because of the temps if you still have snow.

Flush with plain PHd RO water
I agree except the RO part. Don't waste your time/money with RO unless you already made that mistake. If you water is really bad then maybe, but 99% don't need it, and when people who don't need it use it, the result is just more problems for them. And for the love of anything, don't buy CalMag unless you already made the mistake of going with RO.

You can add bio char to the soil which will sequester some of the Nitrogen and slowly release it over time
