I nutrient burned my auto and I need fast help please!

The newest growth on my transiberian auto has burnt yellow tips. I only had a tiny tiny bit of dyna gro bloom left so im guessing it was a little too conentrated.

I have off amazon ordered a bottle of general hydroponics florakleen (a flushing solution like AN final phase etc) and a bottle of fox farm tiger bloom.

To save my auto and help it recover fast when the florakleen comes in 2 days so i use it with a gallon of water then lightly feed the next time with tiger bloom?


Florakleen is supposed to be amazing stuff at flushing out all nutes in soil within 3 days so I was thinking of using it. It says on the bottle its safe for all stages of plant growth not just the final flush and I'm thinking this is the best thing I can do.


Heres a picture.. the newest growth all over the plant is slightly burnt.


I know with autos you simply dont have time to make mistakes so i need to fix this ASAP thats why I bought the florakleen and as a plus I can also use it for my final flush.

The auto just yesterday showed its first female white hairs and has not yet started fully flowering so I think I have time to flush with florakleen then next watering start back tiger bloom real light.


Thoughts??? Heres a pic of burnt tips.

It's OK I bet. Just take it easy on feedings. You aren't past the point of no return. Yet.

so brother.. what do you think of me mixing 1-3 tsp florakleen with a gallon of water then starting over with tiger bloom? thats what I would like to do.. you think I should just use 1 tsp tiger bloom next watering?... I had to water today so I just used straight water.. I poured 1 gallon through the soil.. I will have to water again in about 4 days

I believe your ok , I've pushed auto's to much with nutes before just lighten up on the nutes.

Cool sounds good... Next time I have to water , tiger bloom calls for 1-3 tsp per gallon so I think I'll use 1 tsp and see how she goes.


I was out of nutrients 100% so im very happy to have florakleen and tiger bloom on its way

The solution is definatly not more nutes, stop feeding until New growth is healthy, then continue not feeding and then and only then should you start lightly feeding again

^Definitely right. Listen to him.

Wouldnt using florakleen make healthy new growth come back alot faster?? which in return would be less stress time.. Say I use 1-3tsp florakleen as directed with a gallon of water then 3 days later im getting new healthy growth or i dont use florakleen and it takes 7 days to get healthy growth again.

Im just trying to get the fastest turnaround for healthy new growth where its an auto and its going to start truly flowering in a week - 10 days

I appreciate your alls input.


Maybe I shouldnt have added that bonemeal to my soil when I maqde my soil mix. This was my 5th ever grow and first time ever mixing up my own soil mix, soil shouldnt be too hot though hell all it was was cheap organic potting mix cut 50% with perlite then black kow cow manure compost and some bonemeal and dolomite lime.

Thanks for your help bro. before I went to work today (today was watering day anyways) I put 5 gallons of water through the soil over 2 hours. the first 3 gallons had brownish runoff colored water.. by the 5th gallon the runoff was almost clear.. I'll wait for new good looking growth then I will use the tiger bloom. I will not use anymore nutes until i see good new growth. I only gave one light feeding of dyna gro bloom but it was the last bit in the bottle so maybe it was more concentrated. thats what I think.

thank you for the help.

No problem. We all go through similar stuff.
That sounds safe. Do 1/4 doses when ready, and adjust as needed.
If I see tips starting to burn, I back off the dose a little.
