Still weeks away from being ripe, but you have no leaves left
Yeah they all died off and I cut the ones that completely dried up. I do fox farm fertilizer once a week and water til she’s full every two days ,
She just finished week 9 from seed today

Good news ……. Today is Saturday :mrgreen:

Bad News …. That plant is limping along , no more fans , sugar leaf is torched , needed at at least another 2 weeks to color off ( mature ) the pistil growth , photosynthesis on fumes .

unfortunately you will get some unfinished flowers to smoke. No bottles will correct this.

Hey man, not sure, maybe you went a little too high on the dosage of fox farms trio. I've never used them, but people do say they are strong. A good rule of thumb is to start giving them nutrients at 1/4 the strength they recommend on the bottle, and start increasing the dosage little by little, week by week (0.5 ml/l weekly increase for exemple) untill you see small signs of nutrient burn on the leaves, at that point stop increasing the dosage.

Yep. You fried em bro. But that’s okay cause you got closer than a shit load of people do. And it’s a learning process. I bet you’ll never do that again lol Fortunately that all see as the problem is over fed hard. Like said. Hit em 1/4 strength. And if your using a super soil blend. That usually has something to carry over a couple weeks as well. I’m sure your next grow will be fine

Thanks brotha , do you think this bud will be smokeable or should I do edibles? Ya it’s all good I’m learning a lot , I started with fox farm ocean Forrest and didn’t give nutes until week 4 from seed

Smoke away gee. That’s all your preference. But is it safe. Idk? That’s all on you. But if it’s safe health wise (like you didn’t spray with bullshit) toke it up bro It just won’t taste that well and be harsh

Flushing does nothing for your plant man, won't change taste, thc content, terpene content, nutrient content, anything. There is a small study about it, here is the link,

I will add however, that if you plan to reuse your medium, since it has some remaining salts from the fertilizers, fox farms trio, then I will encourage you to flush your medium, that way it won't have salt build up for your next grow. I did the same when I reused my pro mix medium, and used it to start another grow organically, and It worked alright.

Interesting , I was actually thinking about how I could reuse this soil and do top feedings with new soil, how do you do about renewing you’re soil ?

Well what is your current medium? is it peat? coco?
if you want to reuse your current medium, it has some built up salts from using bottles fertilizers, flushing it will remove those salts. Then you can reuse it.
If you are talking about top dressing and such, sounds like you want to grow organically, if that's the case then you gotta make your own soil mix, and you can use your medium in it. That's what I did, I flushed my promix medium (peat moss, perlite) and I used it to do my soil mix, I added compost, earthworm castings, more perlite and some dry organic amendments. If you want to try that out, you should look up for a good soil mix, there are a bunch on this site, all of them have more or less the same components (peat+perlite+compost+ewc+amendments).
After that you can reuse that soil, adding more dry amendments between cycles. There is Recycled Organic Living Soil, ROLS, thread in this site as well.

Going organic means no more bottled nutrients tho. If you want to try the fox farms trio once again, then I think you can reuse after flushing your medium.

This is my first real grow so I used fox farm ocean Forrest to keep it simple while I learn , can that be reused after ?
I will look into it thank you !

FFOF is a great soil, I would use it, but stores don't sell it over here, that's why I had to make my soil mix. Yea you can reuse it, all the amendments it had are probably gone now, but the rest is peat moss, perlite and ewc.

Amazon has 1.5 cubic foot bags for like 25 bucks !!!! That’s how I get mine , awesome I’d like to learn how to make a soil of my own
