Hey y’all!! This is my first time growing and everything has gone smooth! i just left for the weekend and I came back and noticed My leaves were browning. Im guessing it’s either a nutrient deficiency or a burn. Can someone quickly help me so I can reverse this?? Ive been following the charts for Blue Planet Nutrients regarding how much to put in my water... But now I’m dealing with this. I’m 5 weeks into flower and I really don’t want it to go south now. Thanks in advance! C9335936-B7D2-4D95-A89A-E4963F8997A1.jpeg66E829E9-5778-4E44-A023-4E390F2D07F9.jpeg

I'm thinking burn/lockout. The leaves are thin and really deep green. The issue probably started weeks ago. At first a plant will look really healthy (too healthy) with too much fertilizer and then you're paying the price a few weeks later.

100% overfeeding

You cannot reverse it. But you need to cut back on the nutrients so you don't do anymore damage. As in plain water.

No matter what you do though those leaves are going to get worse. It's crispy fried. They'll keep cooking until they're completely burnt. They're going to shrivel up and turn brown before the plant is ready to harvest.

That's the way it is. Next grow feed less.

There is no fix in a bottle and adding anything else would only exacerbate the problem.

Best thing you can do for those roots is to flush the Coco with water plus kelp and microbes. Flush with at least twice the pots volume for each pot. Then feed at half of the recommended dose when you get your run off ppm back down.

It's not your fault. The clowns that write these feed charts are interested in sales profit more than healthy plants. Most strains are happy at 1.2-1.6 EC all flower.

Where did they say they were growing in coco? And in soil flushing with that much would likely lead to anaerobic soil and even more problems.

True mate. Just making assumptions that it was Coco. Usually if somebody is following a feed chart and their plants look like that it's Coco.

Yeah a good flush with ph water... leave for a while then start feeding lightly
