To cut a long story short no one told me not to use Miracle grow soil and I think I know why -_- bent tips, lower leaves turning yellow and dying, dark green leaves at the top.

3 week of flowering and I've noticed that something was up and now I've flushed them with 2 gallons of water (1gallon tub)
Is this flushing going to help/ fix this or what ??? Help please this is my birthday purple bud for September

I'm anxious about that too as I've just seen a post that said every time you add water with slow realise it's just feeding it!! Ahhh why did I use MG

flushing wont help with MG soil. I would repot asap. And if they have been on 12/12 in flower for 3 weeks then i would look for a light leek.

Your getting the right answers, you just have to believe them!

MG soil has way too much of everything as far as NPK goes......Scotts did that on purpose to screw up MM growers.....They even admitted it back when they bought G&H in a press release! So they've been doing it for years now!

If I repot now isn't there a real high chance of stressing her and killing any chance of a good crop? Is there another way? And what do you mean a light leak ? She's just stunnted because of the nitrogen problem

bud from N tox plants really sucks. its probably worth the risk of shock from repotting

Just be careful. Put it in a bigger pot if you can too. Dont try and get all th MG off the roots, just get out what ever will come off easy.

Also, do it when the soil is dry, and water after repotting.

I don't think there is a good remedy at this point. Over feeding in flower means you can no longer reach the plants genetic potential. So it goes...most of us have been there before.

These plants have been growing in this soil for quite some time (I'm assuming). Why would they show these symptoms now and not weeks ago? Is it that the time release nutes buildup?
