okay people its N deficient; lower leaves yellowing and dieing from the tips inwards, yellowing climbs up the plant, the plant is lime green. adding molasses and cal/mag will only worsen the problem since cal/mag competes with N for binding spots on the roots.

*nute burn occurs on the newest growth at the tips, N is the saltiest nute, and the plant will be dark green with fried new tips(not old tips)if it was getting burned.

feed her something like 10-10-10(this is ~half strength) every other watering. a balanced diet is best. dont cut the yellow leafs either wait for them to fall, the plant still does photosynthesis. green is the first pigment, yellow is the second, and purple is the third. if you use commercial nutes like miracle grow, 1tsp is equal to half strength.

could be...it all depends on when he gave it the blood meal. after he noticed it, and it got worse or it got worse then gave it to them...stop reading out of a book snowball...N deficiency, and toxicity exhibit the same traits in early stages. difference is in the progression. burnt tips etc.

As I said multiple times, I gave it the blood meal as an attempt to cure it. The problems showed BEFORE I gave it blood meal! So it would seem I was right and treated it correctly?? :) ??
