Running into Defiency after flushing?

[GNick55]

that’s fine,
did you water the plants already?

 

[GNick55]

thanks for taking off the net/trellis now it’s easier for us as well

Alright so I watered with a 5 ml which is a half dose. (Recommended 10-20ml) of the comeback formula and a 1/4 teaspoon of recharge half dose (recommended 1/2 teaspoon). I have to go to work now so I will see how they are lookin when I get home. This comeback formula smells so bad

Ps I also got some new plant stands since u guys shitted on my plates lmaoo.

Just going to add that any damaged leaves will NEVER get better and only get worse.

I’ll rephrase that, I haven’t seen any bugs. And Okay I have plates underneath them with holes cut in them. I’ll stop being cheap and get some stands, and I keep the lights 30 inches from the canopy is that not high enough???

Another question. When should I add nutrients? Before I flip to bloom?

Flicks after getting home from work. Plant on right benefitted a lot it looks like, no more droop. Left plant has less droop but yellowing is still progressing. You guys still think I shouldn’t add any fertilizer? In a couple days i fear it will be unforgiving. I took shots of the leaves for y’all to see and they all are from the left plant. Lots of rusting, yellowing, and spots

you growing with LED’s?
you could have a calmag deficiency starting but i’m kinda guessing on this,
i’m tired so don’t take this as a diagnosis maybe someone else can confirm..
thanks for pictures, be back tomorrow..

Yes I am growing with led. Mars hydro fce3000. And I have a bottle of cultivation nation cal-mag also if it is.

 

[GNick55]

what is everything you have there for feeding?

I have the comeback formula, cal-mag and fox farm trio (but it’s an over a year old now) that’s it for bottled stuff.

For dry fertilizer I have:
coast of Maine 524
down to earth 444
humic acid
dr earth 293 and 463
iron-tone
tomato-tone
fox farm 0-12-0
worm castings

Some photos of left plant today, honestly I’m losing hope. Any suggestions?

ok i’ve looked over this and my diagnosis is this is caused by watering too often/maybe your flushing as well-this has caused root issues, the severe clawing.. with root issues it’ll take some time for her to grow out of it if it hasn’t gotten to bad already..

you nutrients wow you have a lot there..
but your still in veg growth, i’d feed because she’s sick a balanced diet for a few feedings..
so like 4-4-4.. or something close with the first number being the higher..

Honestly this plant is at the point of no return, harvest would just be poor quality. I don’t think it was watering as an issue because I took precautions when watering and waited until it was completely dry to water. I honestly think it was lack of nutrients that starved it to death due to the flushing.

I’m just going to experiment with the sick left plant until it gets better or dies. Probably will transplant my other healthy plant into a 10gal and just finish out from there or just let it be in the 5gal because I’m not trying to buy any soil.

I wanted to add, theres still some hope so any opinions are appreciated. I’m going to try adding a small dose of a balanced fert

Well from a total rookie your plants look exactly like mine did. Not only did I discover a huge ec from over fertilizer but also a crazy ph. I ran a shitload of plain ph 6.2, ec.4 water through every pot and then used final flush. I also had way low temps barely 20cduring day and 17c at night so my cloth pot’s just sat there cold and wet. The next day I put the pots on seedling mats and set the mat temps at 75f and I dimmed the lights to 50 % @20 inches away. I left everything alone for a week, within a couple days everything completely changed for the better. No water or anything for the next week or so until the pots were actually light again. Then I started back up with my reg ferts. My guess is your soil is cold n wet with little chance to really warmly dry out. I have also since heated my space more. After all with this global, cough, cough warming I am dealing with outside temps below-15c which keeps my space way cold.Man it’s March tomorrow and it’s snowing like a byoche out ! Worth a try , n good luck

I haven't read the whole thread, so I don't know everything that has been tried. These plants have good recovery capabilities, though, so I would be disinclined to let it go.

I was also thinking it might be too cold or wet. Do you have a soil moisture meter? Those provide better information than lifting the pot, IMO, even though both methods are useful. Another method is to push a small, smooth, sharpened stick, like a small dowel, into the soil all the way to the bottom of the pot to see if the soil clings to it. If it does, the soil is too wet to water.

Hopefully, by the time it’s ready for a watering (which wont be until a few days from now) it won’t be too far gone, but it’s all progressing really fast so my morale for this is pretty low. So I’ll hope for the best.

Can’t be cold, I’m on second floor of home, fireplace always makes it toasty up here and my tent temps are 68 at its lowest when lights are off. Wet possibly, I don’t have a moisture meter To stick into the bottom.
My plan is to make a nutrient tea since my bottled nutes are pretty old lol and I’m not buying new bottles. Hoping this gives what it needs quick.

Is this the result of flushing and overwatering?, drowned roots?
