they are in 2 gal pots, I have been watering every couple days or so, I pick the pot up and check the weight.Yeah but I don't think I'm being clear you need to flush the living piss out of your soil;
if you have 3 gallon pots you need to put 9 gallons of pH 6.5 water through each one if you want to possibly save those plants
And that's just for starters; after that The Next Step would be talking about your feeding and watering practices
After you do a heavy flush tag me in and I'll tell you what I would do next to correct and eliminate your issues, good luck!
Edit: Btw I knew you didn't have a PPM meter, that's why I asked; ppm's a big part of your problem
I've answered both your question regarding flush volume and pH in my last post.@Beachwalker how much do I flush? I know its dumb, but im just worried about over watering, push 6 gallons @6.0 ph then let dry out completely?
@Beachwalker ok, so because of how I have my setup it’s going to be done in batches of 2 gallons, per plant (I have 2 1g jugs I use for my ladies) switching off each plant so there’s time for the excess runoff to finish draining+ collecting any runoff I get to test for numbers.I've answered both your question regarding flush volume and pH in my last post.
Your issue is not complicated, it's a typical beginner's mistake and I will help you, but you at least have to pretend that you're reading what I say first
After you figure out those two answers to your own questions tag me back in and I'll be back to help you before your plants have dried from the heavy flush you should have given them already, best wishes
Edit: okay coffee kicked in and I noticed you got the 3x pot volume for flushing, that's good, but you missed the pH, you don't want to use that low of a pH ever in soil, (low soil ph is a big part of your problem) use 6.5 always in soil, and spend ten bucks and get a PPM meter, I use mine 10 to 1 over a pH meter
What's the PPM of your runoff
Edit: was glancing through your thread when I saw you update; my first impression was a lockout causing a potassium deficiency
That's also what I see above, you haven't flushed it out well enough and/or changed your watering practice, so if you describe how you're feeding and watering it might help
I haven’t given them anything except maybe a little calmag a month apart. Otherwise I haven’t given them anything else except recharge since 7/7/20I think I see what's wrong with your plant I think it's what you're feeding it I don't think it's a matter of flushing it at all now that you've put those numbers up I retract what I said above I'm pretty sure you're not feeding it in the right ratiolo

I’m honestly just trying to grow with what I have and not buy more. These clones were given to me when I was trying to grow coco, so I had to buy some soil, then nutes for that soil and the terp teas were recommended by a buddy who has gotten good results with them.Also I don't think this is best practice either..

I don't mean this in a negative way because you're obviously doing a lot right but there's still a few things I think you should read up on because a few of the things you're doing are keeping you from achieving optimum results
Couple quick questions; are you trying to grow organically? and are you married to the nutrient product you're using?
Jack's is good stuff! I use Master Blend which is pretty much the same thing, I think it'll work better for youI’m honestly just trying to grow with what I have and not buy more.

I’m not married to it, i would just rather not buy more products right now. I still have a bunch of jacks 321 I’m waiting to use in coco when the soil is done. Unless I find a good method with soil and these terp teas.
also, pardon my ignorance, but which part about the watering practices? There was a lot circled there. Is it the not feeding enough? Or the spraying of the top part of the soil?
When I water, I typically make 1 gal out in a jug, then alternate 16oz by hand in a red cup each plant, till runoff, so it has time to distribute in the soil.
Oh man, Jacks In soil is a whole nother ballgame in my eyes. I could barely get seedlings to grow in coco lolJack's is good stuff! I use Master Blend which is pretty much the same thing, I think it'll work better for you
Routine flushing is good but you're flushing runoff numbers show me that it's what you're feeding that's not working
I feed my plants twice in a row and then I flush; honestly I don't know what you're trying to do that's what I'm trying to sayOh man, Jacks In soil is a whole nother ballgame in my eyes. I could barely get seedlings to grow in coco lol
Could it also be the possibility that I was cramming too much into single feedings? In 1 gal I had silica, cal mag, and I poured it over the top feed. I haven’t fed them in ages based off of the frog/hf mix, so aside from the ph, think the just need some nutrients?
Soil is at bare minimum Ppm’s right now so I feel like I NEED to give them
Something.
Well I guess I haven’t been very clear on that then!I feed my plants twice in a row and then I flush; honestly I don't know what you're trying to do that's what I'm trying to say
You say you haven't fed for months or top feed & this and that.. you're all over the place friend
I recommend you get on a routine feeding schedule that works and stick to it because I don't know what you trying to do now and I don't mean that in a bad way, I've tried to figure it out this whole thread but I still don't get what you're trying to do
Some websites I recommend are ilgm.com, growweedeasy.com Royal Queen seeds.Com great info and instructions!
If I were you, I’d stick to soil and get that down before switching to coco. Coco is a whole different animal. I use dyna gro nutrients and they’ve been easy to get dialed in. Hope you resolve the issue. For now, go take a toke and relax, let the plants do their thing. Give them their space and check on em later.Well I guess I haven’t been very clear on that then!
I just want to make these ladies healthier so I can flip and flower. I have one tent that will be used for everything, growing drying curing. The whole thing started with a mild nute burn that I thought I had under control and it spun way out of control. That mixed with a lot of heat, I’m at a point where I just want them healthy to flower and not worry anymore. The exact reason in not feeding for so long is based off of the Hot -ish soil, I was attempting to have the plants take all the nutrients out of the soil before I started feeding any additional nutrients.
the goal is to make them healthy enough to flower worry free
foxfarm is not hot soil that's hippie myth; it's only hot when you start pouring other newts in it too soonWell I guess I haven’t been very clear on that then!

You can lead a horse to water.
maybe im confused about what you mean when you say ' I don't know what you're trying to do'?foxfarm is not hot soil that's hippie myth; it's only hot when you start pouring other newts in it too soon
I don't have any idea what you're trying to do I really don't and I've reread what you're doing so I really have nothing more to offer, except as I mentioned above start feeding newts on a regular schedule, and I would switch to the Jacks 123
