That does not seem like nute burn to me. Also, considering how old they are I'd think they would have used up a good amount of the nutrients, although there is some time release I believe...

Wow, don't take stuff so offensively. Jesus Christ, I was saying I didn't really think it was over-fertilizing, I value your opinion and I will head your warning and try to flush it all out as fast as I can. So I am guessing the final dynastic is over-fertilization? Weird, when I over fertilized a little before I got bright yellow burnt tips and I knew to back off, this time it started with spots on the leaves then just boom whole leaves the next day.... Also, these look more rustic then burnt... but I will value your opinion.

IF ANYONE THINKS IT IS SOMETHING OTHER THEN OVER-FERTILIZING PLEASE POST.

lol...my bad dude didnt mean to halfway freak out...lately the responses to peoples problems i find on here are super irritating when someone knows what is wrong...but another says it isnt...and at first i thought it was someone else who posted that they didnt think it was toxicity...so really i jumped for nothing...so i am sorry.

sometimes you get lucky, like with potassium, or phosphorus in particular...it shows earlier, and not as bad...nitrogen is the opposite IMO, esp. when way overdone...it shows in like 2 days...and by that time it takes another 2-3 to see how bad you really muffed up, and then another 2-3 to see if you fixed it...sucks i know.

Do you recommend I just leave the plants alone and continue feeding regular ph'd water? I remember now that shortly before the problems started I fed them some high dosages of molasses mixed with unph'd water.... I know I was being stupid and careless.

yes. i would flush them once...let the dirt dry out, water as normal, and let her dry...then start feeding again at 1/4 strength...then slowly work your way up.

What would you consider 1/4th I never even gave these guys nutes aside from dosages of molasses. I guess I'll start giving em some Alaskan Fish Fertilizer once they recover.

well...there should be some type of feeding directions on the back of the bag, or bottle...but whatever it says use 1/4 of that...so, say it is a tsp. use 1.4 of a tsp...you have measuring spoons right?

It's molasses... It isn't designed to be used for plants.

lol...use 1 tsp. of molasses per gallon...all the molasses does have iron, magnesium, and calcium in it...i mean good for the soil...something to do with building a symbiotic relationship with microbes...which breaks down bacteria...lol, not to sure, but something along those lines...other then that it is not really a NPK type supplement.

No noooooo, I added the blood meal AFTER these problems got real bad.. and ever since I added the blood meal the infection stopped spreading ;) I think it may have been a nitrogen deficiency, along with some nute burn maybe.

i guess you'll know if it keeps getting worse, all i know is that this:
MAJOR PROBLEMS
I thought maybe this was a nitrogen deficiency so I gave them a nice helping of 12-0-0 blood meal. Can anyone tell me what they they this deficiency is, it has spread and gotten worse each day. Each plant suffers from this except my flowering fast bud, which I fear may become victim next.

so what you are saying is, that you either gave it blood meal, and then this happened...like the above ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ or you meant to say i think this is a Nitrogen deficiency, which has gotten worse everyday, so i added blood meal.

maybe some kind of insects that eat the roots inside...in my expreince most soils will have kinds of insects in your soil pots.....and whats the MG s bag say like 3 or 6 months worth of feed right? then dont give em anything just water....and flush often...or alternative is to repot into a clean pots with new soil it will help a lot ? good luck and peace.

I meant I thought it was a nitrogen deficiency so I gave it blood meal (as an attempt to cure), the problems happened BEFORE I gave it blood meal. The new shoots seem to have nice dark green leaves, we shall see! ;) I think they'll live.
