How can I stop an early fade? No problems other than I went too small with a few of my fabric pots, I vegged too long in 1 gallons. So now my roots organics lush is out of nutes …what can I give these plants to stop the fade so early?

I’ve tried terp tea bloom but I don’t think it’s stopping them from fading.

She's hungry, just checked the nutes you're using to fix the def. Decent nutes for flowering, but this early in flower they're still producing new green growth (stems for those colas to live on, and sugar leaves to feed em) , which requires Nitrogen

A good balanced grow nute would be perfect, you're supposed to dial back veg nutes in flower, not stop completely

Thanks everyone, what kind of NPK rating should I be looking for? The bloom I’m using is 3-7-4

This is the exact dilemma I warn people about with organics. Don't get me wrong, I've had great success with top dress etc, but if you're just a tad behind or put bloom too early, boom, deficiency in flower. Now you have to determine if you want to keep everything "organic" or not. Fish emulsion or some kelp and ewc tea should help, but they fade QUICK if you don't act fast enough, and since you're in soil you can't just throw nutes in it everyday. If you want to use organics, use a much bigger pot.

N and P is ok, but K is low. Typically like to have at least 2x K vs N in flower.

Do you have any other items on hand? We may be able to find a solution with what you have

Have you feed at all? They need food fast.. maybe its too late.. most of the growth happens in the first two weeks of flower

Easiest solution, 1 part, mix in water and feed every time you water. Roots organics always runs out of food I've had clones in 1 gallon bags show deficiencies after only 2 weeks.

Still staying organic, apply budswel per/directions for them big greasy buds.

Teas are going to mainly feed microbial life and not your plants themselves, they typically contain minimal NPK. Usually what compost is included in the brew packs is just for the microbes to feed on while brewing. Learned this the hard way. :D
