my plants have suffered nutrient lock out. I flushed out my reservoir and am currently feeding nothing but water for 4 days to a week. Is that a good idea? I am also switching nutes from stealth hydros to cns 17

Thats what you do when they are locked out. You can start feeding again soon but start with 1/4 strenght and work your way up. I dont go over 800-900ppm in veg or flower. I dont know much about either nutes but you NPK should be 10-10-10 for veg and 10-30-20 for flower with a ph aroud 5.5. Try to stay in that range to prevent lock out!

Heres somes good advice for nutrient lockout, and to the point. https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/8596-nutrient-lockout-explained.html
But i wouldnt flush for a week, 1 day should be plenty. What kind of system are you using?

Thanks again man. I'm using a DWC set up. So you think I should start them on 1/4 strength now? It's been almost two days now.
