Cal/mag would have been my suggestion if his leaves weren't as burnt as they were. Cal/mag problems usually present in reddish purple stems &or red/Brown spots on leaves, but for the whole plant to actually burn like that it was deff over feeding.

SixMoreDucks, were you able to chop/save your girls?!

we never flush because we use or grow as organic as possible. FFOF isn't 100% organic but any nutrients we used are. we go lightly on ferts after the third/fourth week.

Just a thought for you since I recently learned...MAKE SURE YOU CALIBRATE your PH meter. I have been having some issues with my ladies, leaves turning colors and getting all papery looking. I let it slide for a while and kept getting worse so I thought "hey I haven't calibrated my ph meter in a while".

Holly shit batman. I put my meter in 7.0 solution. It was 7.9. NOT GOOD. Corrected that, gave plain PH'd (6.3) water for about a week and they are starting to come back around. good luck.

Should've stayed with your tap water OP;-).......a water supply with HIGH mineral contents(aquifer) plus added salt based ferts is a recipe for disaster no matter the strength applied imo. The bond becomes pretty strong, flushing does little.

Good luck on your next run grower...
 
I harvested the worst blue dream yesterday, the other may be able to hold out a bit longer, but for sure is dying.

Psuagro, are you saying the local tap water is better than from the aquifer? I don't drink the tap water because I can smell the chemicals. Common around here.

Without knowing the actual PPM's of that source, it's just a guess. But you stated in your post using tap and they where growing rather healthy on it???

If you wanna remove most of the "baddies" out of your tap for cheap I recommend this unit(I own it)
