I am growing in soil outside. I am new to this so I dont really know too much on this.., i have 2 plants.. One looks pretty healthy and the other is looking lime green in color all over. I measured the ph of the soil, it is at a 7. I added some nutrients 2 days ago. I read i needed to add some plant food. So I did. But I have been using jacks blossom booster 10-30-20 (1/4 teaspoon) per week. Any help would be appreciated. I added a pic of my healthy one also. Thank you!
Help, my plant looks lime green!

If they were my plants I'd flush that jacks shit out of the pots thoroughly with clean water... then top dress with a basic organic fertilizer like tomato-tone or garden-tone... they'll recover in a few days
So just flush then how long do i wait to put nutrients in? At the same time of flush?

I'd topdress a cpl hours after flushing the soil good ... then water that in lightly w no runoff ... then just lightly topdress every cpl weeks through harvest you'll be good
Ok thank you, i will get some fertilizer and get that started asap.

Advice above is sound and I would add.... to feed them some Epsom salt 1 tsp per gallon of water every week
For ph balance?

For magnesium and sulfur. Magnesium is one of those things that if its lacking the plant will be lighter color as well.
Oh ok. I will do that as well
Thank yall!

Some strains go like this, when the plants just turning over to flower.
Any tips of the leaves burnt ?

Just make sure you get one without added perfumes or other crap.
I like the flush, then feed organic idea. I'd also recommend to top dress with some EWC after the flush. You could also water with Neptune's Harvest Fish and Seaweed or even Alaska Fish Fertilizer. The Alaska stinks like mad, but it's great for outdoors. I just won't use it inside anymore. The Neptune's is hydrolysate, not emulsion.

You have burn't the roots so you do need to give the plant water for the next week.
So should i flush it and continue water for a week and then add the organic nutrients?
Ok thank you

You don't really need to flush first. You could add some organic top dressing now with some EWC, and water as you were. Or feed them some Alaska Fish Fertilizer after you top dress them to really help activate the microbes.

Looking at the plant, very mild nute burn so I would water for the next week and see how she looks, then give her, half strength nutes for a week or two.
