***I had posted this first in the INDOOR GROWING not realizing of this ORGANIC section. Im lost and opened to suggestions. Thanks for reading***

Hello members this is my first time here with my first thread for my 2nd indoor organic grow @ 400w MH/HPS. Seeds were some "type" of haze. Cant quote me on the name. They were given to me. Im having major issues.For the past 3 weeks Ive been battling with the leaves turning yellow. Seems like theyre doomed! My confusion is that they havent drooped once on me. Fans up reaching for the skies!! Buds are growing but still stringy. Red hairs coming in. And layered with sparkling trichomes. First it looked like nute burn so i flushed them about 4 weeks ago. After that, leaves been getting lighter, some have been fried with some small brown spots and some turned yellow like the end of flowering. But its too early for that. And the rest are lightening up little by little. PLEASE ANY ASSISTANCE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!! Im starting to have a passion for this. Whether they Live or Die im gaining the knowledge...
3 GALLON POTS
MEDIUM: Fox Farms soil, EarthWorm Castings, Lobster Compost, Perlite. Distilled Water
During VEG I fed them a compost tea consisted of 1tbl spoon of Mexican Guano,1 tsp Age old Kelp, 1tbl spoon molasses, in one gallon water. In FLOWER compost tea consisting of 1tbl spoon Indonesian Guano (which i switched to Canna pk13/14: NPK 0-10-11),1 tsp Age old Kelp, 1tbl spoon molasses. Once yellow worsten 2 WEEKS AGO,which began at the middle, the tea consist of 1tsp PK13/14,1tsp CAL MAG, and topped the medium with teaspoon of the Mexican guano, which is high in N to hopefully stopped the yellowing before pouring tea. BUT TO NO AVAIL!!! SOMEBODY?!! ANYBODY?!!!

But its pushing it. Although i dont think those plants are rootbound. Im thinking extreme heat stress. "Canoeing" leaves is a pretty clear sign. And incorrect temperature will lead to def and loss of vigor and hermies. Room temp and canopy will be different by big tim. Hang a thermo right at canopy level.

Also flushing with organics is never a good idea. Organic ammendments that are water soluble will just break doen even faster. Nothing is flushed except potentially water logging roots.

Think about ditching fabric pots. They most likely are drying out around edges of pot and air pruning your roots. Its difficult to have good soil conditions for organics with small fabrics. Especially in a warm er dryer room.

I would guess with all the water its released to much in the soil. Probably a combo of over water and burn/ lockout.

My first organic grow I used a hi p hi k bloom nutrient as well which threw out the ph so badly by around week 6 my plants were showing serious deficiencies. Living soil hates anything with high npk values. Sounds like you are having similar issues. The only thing that helped was to give straight RO water for a couple weeks; the plants recovered somewhat but with small yields. Once you go to using nutes your organic soil is no longer benefitting the plant until you can flush out the dissolved salts & get it active once again.

i disagree with the over watering. i feed 4 -7 or when needed. Lately theyve been thirsty. every 3-4. Burn/Lockout? IDK. i did the same routine as the last grow and somewhere in there something went wrong. Sucks!!!!!
