My plant is experiencing nutrient burn and I'm looking to correct it. What's the process for flushing in DWC? Just pH'd water? Anything else? How long do I give just water for?

Thanks so much

Are you sure it’s burn? If it is just top up more water and dilute the ppm

I would post pictures of the plants with the grow lights off if I were you.

Allow some of the hydro growers here to get their eyes on it before you perform a drastic action that may not have anything to do with the actual problem at hand.

Water Level is pretty close to full and to the net pot. Yes it's nute burn, I think too much nitrogen (leaves are curling down).

Not burn I’d say calcium def flushing would make the issue worse probably a couple other deficiencies going on along side it too

Nitrogen tox would normally have much darker leaves imo plus I’m sure nitrogen effects newest leaves first

What’s your ph

Plant sprouted on June 1st. I'm using the KISS Method with MaxiBloom as the base nutrient and was supplementing with CaliMag and also a little nitrogen because the bottom leaves were turning pale green a while back.

My pH is 5.9. Everything I'm reading is suggesting either too much light or nitrogen. I have no idea.

I’d say your leaves are still pale green tbh compared to nitrogen tox plants I’ve seen.

How often are you res changing?

And how many g per gallon of maxi bloom
And calimag?

I changed the reservoir today. It hadn't been that long since I had last changed it out though (maybe 10 days, wasn't dirty). I gave 3/4 of a teaspoon per gallon of maxibloom and 1 tsp per liter of the calmag.

I moved the pH from 5.9 to 6.2 to see if this will help with taking in the calmag...

Isnt a teaspoon close to 6ml ? Seems a lot of cal/mag per litre.

Isnt it recommended 1ml per litre
