Hello all. This is my first time participating in RIU forums. All of you have helped me because I come to this site for knowledge. So thanks in advance for any info.

What I'm using:
6.5x6.5x7 Hydro Hut Silver
Carbon Filter and H/O Fan combo from HTGsupply
Coco with Roots organic soil on top
1000w HPS with 6in. air cooled hood
Fox Farm nutes and solubles
Bud Candy
2 Blueberry OG Kush
1 Super Silver Haze
1 Snowcap
Tent has it's own room
I think that's all.

I'm for weeks into flowering and the only problem's I've had so far are the damn gnat things. I've been using something for that but forgot the name (I'm at work). Well on Friday I nuted and sprayed the stuff for the bugs around the bottom of my pots (they are coming out of the holes at the pot's bottom when I water). I wake up Saturday and smell hay. Instantly I check the plants. One of my BBOG's leaves were curled and looked horrible which is about 90%. I flushed like hell until the water didn't look like urine. I saved the other BBOG so to speak because the curling has stopped and that's about 20%. I will post pics tonight when I get home. My questions is should I keep letting the BBOG With the 90% curled and dying leaves finish the last four weeks of flower or should I pull it? Again thanks in advance.

pictures help..all a guess till then

and cant be adding soil on top of coco..2 diff ph needs to process foods. so one is processing all the food and the other is locking out...mixed is better bit not on top as this says it is.
thats what organic soil does...brings the bugs. cant sterilize it right or it kills the microbial life. stick to a soiless mix. also fox farm is real strong and locks easy..salts easy. 2 diff mediums makes a mess of the cation exhcange

Pics 1-4 are from BBOG#1 pic 5 BBOG#2 is the one I think I slowed down. You said I can't add soil on top of coco. What percent mix should I use for coco/roots mix? I see a lot of post's about soilless mixes. If your not using soil what are you using? I'know it's a dumb question but the dirt isn't to bad for indoor but I'd rather not use it. Any recommendation's for a mix. The stuff I used for the gnats was Take Down Garden Spray. Could putting that in the water for the catch on my pot do this. The holes in the bottom of the pot was where the gnats were coming from. Thanks again in advance.

Wow yes you really did didn't you. Run a ton of water through it. You're gonna create some sort of lockup cause the plant can't use all of it.

When Do I start nuting again? My Snowcap and Super Silver Haze are absolutely fine. Should I keep on with the last four weeks with my dying lady beacuse I don't see many "solar panels" on BBOG#1 or would it be a waste to keep. I guess I'm asking if the damage is as bad as I think it is should I chalk it up and chop her.

I started with FoxFarm because it was simple. When I go to the store and ask about switching nutes and what I should use. They give me 10 bottles and tell me "You'll need all of these". I was told you usually use about 1/3 to half that many bottles of stuff. Any advice on nutes and soiless mix? I want to switch nutes anyways and I need to get rid of the dirt. Is cocofiber what your talking about? Thanks again.

OK. I'll move the light to the other side of the tent. Should I put both BBOG's on the same side. The last pic is the one I think I stopped.

ROFLMAO! Yea, my bad. I kinda panicked and thought the worse. The plant is starting to come back. The leaves are continuing to growing out of the nugs and the burning has stopped dramatically. If it wasn't for you guys/gals I probably would've kicked them over and stomped on them. LOL! Still need to know when I should start nuting again? Thanks for the help/advice.

just go kick the plants over and stomp on them that should fix things up for you

Yeah the kicking and stomping thing, not good advice haha. Wait a couple waterings and then start at 1/4 dose. What dosage did you use?

I followed FoxFarm nute chart all the way. I was full strength. Silver haze and Snowcap took it well. Don't worry. I know you didn't mean any harm.

hi might be ok but because you flushed too late in to the flower cycle you should eradacate problems latest third week in to flowering to get it back otherwise you run out of uptake time in flowering. any way you can make some hash!
give it mild nutriants until signs improve.
