Hey All,

Please see the pics below.

I am about 5 weeks into my feminized auto flower grow. I used the best soil home depot has to offer. lights are on 18-6. Good air flow and I used all top quality water when feeding.

I used fox farms big bloom twice in feedings (separated by a week) and have discontinued the nutes for about 2 weeks.

After reading some other similar problems I tried to remedy the situation with 1 tbsp of epsom salt/ gal of water. I did that for two feedings in a row and the most recent feeding I tried to flush the soil a bit with lots of bottled water.

Any ideas for remedy are greatly appreciated. Thanks all!sick baby 2.jpgsick baby 1.jpgsick baby 3.jpg

Just a guess, but which ever soil you got the depot probably had nutes in it, then youre feeding it more nutes with the fox farm, so my guess is nute burn. Good luck and good growing

Its defo nute burn but the question is why? .... From what you say, youve only fed twice with a flower feed so it crazy you should have that much burn.... How many ml/litre did you feed her?

Cal/Mag problem there, I bet you have some purple stems too....Are you using any Cal/Mag or Micro Nute? If not get some.

Peace

Thanks for all of the responses guys! :clap:

The nute burn seems to be the most likely ailment. I am going to follow the instructions of using a calmag mix to try and remedy this. Is that a good idea injecting more nutes when all signs point to nute burn? Or is this simply a quicker way to balance that uneven chemical equation in my soil?

Thanks guys

Bro that is not nute burn, that is a cal/mag deficiency. What you could do is flush your plant with 3 times the amount your soil container with water that is ph to 5.8 to 6.0

Once you do that, make a nute mix at 50% dosage and add a Cal/Mag supplement and make sure you ph your nute mix to 6.5ph. Make sure you pure enough nute mix to have some run-off, that way your soil is mice and coated.

Your plant will get droopy but its perfectly normal because your plant will go into hyperdrive the next day and will wicker the nutes out your soil. This technique is called Making It Rain created by Riddleme3. This works and you will see how your plant responds. Just make sure you flush with 5.8-6.0 ph water..... Pm me if you have questions.

I know its abit late but that there is with out a shadow of a doubt a cal mag def... nute burn doesnt work its way up a plant like that, it also works its way down the leafs from the tips.. no doubt in my mind thats a cal mag def..
