what's wrong with my white rhino plant

its not just a nitrogen deficiency, something else is wrong. dont listen to half of these idiots that are attacking me.

if it was just n def, the whole plant would pale out, evenly.

the leaves are being eaten from the bottem up as food, becuase somethings wrong with the roots.

they are probably hurt from too much water, since you just flushed. let them dry out, and then feed with 1/2 bloom solution (1-2-2).

how much water did you flush with? looks like a 1/2 gallon pot, should have only used 1/4 to 1/2 gallon of water.
 
@nick88 yeah I watered 1.5 days ago.
ill do the feed w/light watering.
also wanted to know if Tiger bloom will be enough for flowering or will I need big bloom and extra calcium?

Ok if you can add the h202 also, overwatering comes from the roots not being able to uptake 02, so the extra in the h202 will help.
Can't give you an answer as for the nutes go, i'm not familiar with their products so i can't really say 1 way or the other.
I've used Dutch Masters gold for the last few years and have had great results with it. Never had yto add any cal/mag or other micros.
Pretty much the standard for a full flush is 3x the pot size in water.

bmeat, nitrogen deficiency DOES start from the bottom leaves and works its way up.
 
@nick88 I didn't use 3x the amount flushed with 2x the amount.
hope thts not hurting the plant.
And by h202 u mean hydrogen peroxide?
mix the h202 with the nitrogen nutrient alone? Or add water, H202 and N nutrient?

Don't worry about the whole "you're suffocating the roots" bullshit, it's simply not true in your case.
Your plant is suffering from nitrogen deficiency at this moment in time. It is not showing any other problems either.
Just feed it a bit of N and you'll be good.
 
@cranky
Do you think tiger bloom is enough for flowering?
Or would I need big bloom or anything else?

Thanks for all of the advice.

Never said he was suffocating the roots. Just saying as much watering as hes done recently, the h202 will add a lil extra 02 to help prevent it when he feeds it this time.
Good luck op.

Tiger bloom should be adequate for flowering. I use it as well. Just for the next feeding, if the N deficiency continues to spread, feed it some N nutes along with your regular feeding.
Big Bloom is merely a bloom enhancer. You don't absolutely NEED Big Bloom. You can use it if you'd like though, however I've never really seen a huge difference in yield or quality unless you start using Big Bloom during your vegetative cycle. You can still add the Big Bloom into your feeding schedule though.

all i know is my plant did that when the soil was too wet for too long. it should go through wet and dry cycles.

imho if you are useing your nutes correctly and not over ferting there shouldnt be any reason to flush . water ,water ,feed . Those pics are def a Nitrogen deficiency .Also you might want to look at the pot size . the pot might be getting a little small . The pot size might not be anything serious ,But something to consider also.. Depending on when the last time you feed her . I would give her some N 1/4 strength then water, water . and work slowly up to full does of grow nutes (per instructions), as i cant really say how much of N you should give, cause most nutes are diffrent as far as dosages go. Take your time and dont rush it .it will work out. This happens to me alot .shes just telling you shes hungry. :leaf:

you know what..these guys are right..start feeding. when the rootball gets big, it SUCKS the life out of the soil becuase its got so much roots. you need to feed more frequently in bloom, espeically when the pot is small.

still this is a problem of the roots. theyre hungry. you dont want water to drain out the bottem of pot, yours washing out nutes. i do like 4 oz at a time till i see a drop come out..youll note the spot after a couple times of doing it
