How to get over nutrient lockout

[oldtimer19]

What do i need to do to get this girl back on track. I have ran straight distilled water through the top twice. Gave it water from below a few times but i think its still mostly locked up

For a thorough flush pour three times the volume of the pot in water through the soil. That will clear a lockout. i.e., 3 gal pot, 9 gals of water. Then let it dry back, then resume feeding.

dont forget what was damaged will never recover but as long as it stops spreading your good.

When i do resume the feeding. How much should i use. I was giving it 6000 plus ppm's. I guess i should go back to whatever the nutrient package suggests???

6000 plus ppm? Hopefully this is a mis statement.

Resume feeding after the flush and dryback, 6000 PPM's is waaaay too much, go by the manufacturers schedule, or maybe start at 50%, see how the plants react, then adjust accordingly. After seeing the pics, why do you think it's a lockout? Also, what kind of nutes are you using? I'm hoping you meant 600 PPM's, not 6000 (which would fry your plants).

600 is like 50% for jacks and I see that number a lot in diaries. It is the right time in weeks for a salt lock.
OP multiple flushes are not going to help. Flushing with 3 times or flushing until ppm falls off is enough. Any use of a wetting agent like sledgehammer?

Yes it was up over 6000. I had feed it 4900 for about a month and a half. Its only 4 months old. So i will drop to the manufactors recommendation and go from there. A n
