Flushed but now I'm N- help?

Harvester315 · Jun 5, 2016

I was having some issues with nute burn so I flushed my plants and within 2 days the bottom leaves are much more yellow than I would like one is even almost dead. Nearing the end (as far as I can tell, first grow) of my VEG period and want to make sure I'm where I need to be for a good flowering. Like I said I flushed the 2 plants so in a little weary to feed then as they are still a bit too wet already, anything I can use to help supplement ny N? Thanks !

First pic is worst set of leaves second is the more common problem amongst my 2 plants. Sorry for not including the pictures first time

My leaves are also a little droopy but I did flush them so I'm hoping that's over watering at work there. It seems I've been having issues left and right since I got my bigger tent. Temp and humidity are dialed in and now I'm having all sorts of issues if you see any of my other posts. All I have in the way of nutes are Buddha grow and Buddha bloom. I thought I was overdoing it with the grow nutes which caused nute burn so I flushed them now the plants seem to need nutes. Is there something else I should get for nutrients?

Aurora is on point feed at 1.0 ec and 6.0 ph are you using any of their additives ?

Harvester315 · Jun 6, 2016

I have nothing else in the way of nutrients but the grow and bloom. I feel like I have many deficiencies with my plants but I'm afraid of nutrients after all this. This link has some more pictures and many more details if you have any interest in checking it out.

i see this too many times people flushing there plants without actually knowing whats wrong with them your plants are going yellow after the flush because they are hungry and need nitrogen because you have flushed all the available food out the soil can you get any full plant pics for us to look at ? and a bit more info about your setup / conditions
what soil are you using
what lights
what are your temps like
how often are u feeding them
are you checking / adjusting the ph ?
if you can give more detail it will make it easier to get correct help but with such limited info it really makes it impossible for anyone to give you acurate info and thats part of the problem when people ask for help with no info people advise based on things it could be and then you ended up flushing without knowing what was wrong causing a different problem most of the time
i can only sudjest ideas before i know more but
here is what i would say to check
temps at canopy level
ph of your feed
ec of your feed or if no meter what are you adding and how much are you adding
what medium are u using and how often are you feeding ?

also is it just the lower leaves effected are the tops any better ? is it old growth or new ? and i mean the origional problem before you flushed

Harvester315 · Jun 6, 2016

All of that info is in here

(Sorry for redirect I didn't want to type it all out again :-)

)

I realized I was starting too many threads about individual issues. I know they definitely need to dry out and that could be most of the problem. Also I doubt my flush was very success as I only did 1/2 gallon each in the 3 gallon pots.

Ok, dude...I understand the excitement and anxiety that come with a first grow...been there done that got the hemp t-shirt. But, you seriously need to relax. The medium you are using had enough nutrients to keep them healthy for a good long time. You have made a series of 'creative' choices and have not been very successful. Calm down and chillax. Cannabis plants are living organisms and want to survive and thrive. You are 'loving them to death' my friend.

I think you might be watering too quickly, dont let those bottom leaves sit in a puddle/wet soil after watering. It can dry them up and kill them overnight. They will end up yellow and look similar to N def except the entirw leaf is crinkled

The plant doesnt really look burned, high nute content yes but it doesn't look bad to the point of a flush.

I concur.

I totally agree. I've left them alone for the last 4 days after the flush friday. Only thing I changed was to move my hps up a little as the temp was 80 at the ground which was about 18" below the top of canopy. New growth didn't care for that heat.

Try some Ammonium Sulfate, relativly cheap,24-0-0 my plants blew up after I started adding a small amount to each feed. My soil had Zero N

You have a couple of bottom leaves dying and your running multiple threads on the issue . Come back when you really have a problem.

Thank you for the response I suppose...

It's more than just a couple dying leaves. I have drooping, spots, dying/yellow leaves and stunted growth. The leaves are darker up top and crisp and curling.

As stated this us my first grow and I'm trying to take in a lot. Also as stated in the other thread I specifically mentioned that I shouldn't have started so many threads and that one encompassed all of my problems in it.

Click pic to make larger, save this to your desktop or phone. Also google is your best friend.

Buy a Nutrient tests kit, so you can find out where your levels are, and what you need.

Harvester315 · Jun 7, 2016

I have that chart now and a few others they are very helpful. Definitely look into a test kit that sounds like a great tool for newbies. Thanks!

PotatoBug · Jun 7, 2016

Nutrient Tests, and PH meters are essential tools. Not just for "Newbies"

Harvester315 · Jun 8, 2016

Any suggestions on a test kit, lots of options out there want an accurate one.
