My bad, Ocean Forest. Thank you. So I am guessing that is likely why my girls are clawing. Should I move them to a less harsh soil or just leave them alone and give them time?
Nitrogen toxicity in organic grow?

They usually recover and adjust to the soil. I don't use it for seedlings anymore but I have used it with them and they usually do fine.

This may be a stupid question but would topping a plant that is dealing with nitro toxicity put too much stress on it?

I choose not to top personally but if I was going to I'd prefer it to be healthy, IDK maybe it doesn't matter, I have heard you can pretty much do anything in veg as long as you have a happy plant entering flowering.

Thanks, I may gove it some time and see if it doesnt get some healthier new growth before topping.

Super old thread but great info here. I've been dealing with nitrogen toxicity ever since going to this super soil thing and it sucks monkey balls. How can a slow release organic amendment that takes about 2 weeks (or longer) to break down cause a nitrogen toxicity? .... there's enough nutes in the soil by itself to begin with..thats how. So you've done the bone head move and are dealing with it again, what now? Throw a straw (or sawdust) mulch layer and just wait it out I guess. Nitrogen is used up as the mulch layer begins to break down at the soil level. Don't understand it all but know that some biolgical thing is happening there, like when you throw grass and fallen leaves in a compost bin, it eventually turns into soil magically, or some kind of science behind it but it happens.
