I have plants in a 4x4 grow tent with a 600w led vipraspectra light, a humidifier, CO2 bag, inline fan, oscillating fan(at plant level). I premixed blood/bone mill, azomite, bat quanos, and bu's compost in fox farm ocean forest soil and fed 12-6-6 age old grow liquid nutrients until I saw the nute burn.Now I'm water using purified water only. One of the plants has browning on the sides of the leaves only.IS THIS A DEFICIENCY OR BURN? The other plant looks overwatered so I let it dry out but it didn't seem to help and I haven't seen any growth in two weeks.... SHOULD I TRANSPLANT? I never have runoff so I don't know the ph of my soil but anything that goes in is between 5.5-6.8ph. My temp stays between 55-75F and my humidity is between 45-55. I have the lights set 18hrs on and 6hrs off but I do this manually so it's never exactly the same you can also see the plants on YouTube just click the link thankshttps://youtu.be/OgwJoDw5EU0

Ocean Forest can already run hot for a soil and you added all that other stuff including blood meal and then you fed with a high nitrogen fertilizer. Who told you to add all that stuff? More is not always better. Just give them plain water. Don't flush them with gallons of water but start watering them until run off, let them dry out, and water until runoff. They won't need to be fed for awhile. Don't bother checking runoff pH because it means nothing. If you want to check the soil pH then do a proper slurry test. And get a timer for your lights instead of turning them on and off manually.

You put way to much stuff in that soil my dude. Ocean Forest, all it needs is some extra perlite .. you are burning your plants. What the above dude said ... just water for a while.

Thanks alot I watched a YouTube video and the guy from "seed to stoned" added the amendments to the soil I ended up transplanting one last night into Miracle gro performance organics soil hopefully it'll live but from here on I definitely won't amend unless I see deficiencies. Thanks alot
