FF soil is loaded with nutes. Adding more will hurt your plants. Repot and don't feed for 3-4 weeks. You should only water once every 3-4 days.

That's a lot of light for a baby. Definitely some nutrient issues though. I would let the nutrients in the soil carry her for a while. Consider flushing her out first...

Do you have the other two components? That's a 3 part fertilizer. Useless on its own. You need to use a little of all three.

Good light but def not too much for a healthy plant that size. I've watched plants that size thrive under 1000w MH@ 24" when other conditions were right.

I suppose lol. We used to transplant the clones directly to the veg rooms under big mh light. Took a little hardening off but most survived. I guess I tend to baby my clones lol.

I use the pH perfect line as well. Once you do resume feeding, ignore the directions on the bottle. I max out at 50% of the maximum recommended dose, above that level I have had more trouble than benefits. I get better bud from less fertilizer. May as well save a few bucks too. Those nutrients aren't cheap.

My bad. I missed where you said it was a clone. Was that 3 weeks from cutting or 3 weeks after transplanting rooted clone?

Thats straight nitrogen for one thing, if that's all you're feeding that's likely your problem

and Fox Farm doesn't need to be fed for a long time, up to a couple months strain dependent

I agree with above poster who suggested a flush, and after I flushed I would not feed it any newts for several weeks it will feed from the soil

Also recommend using balanced nutes when you resumed feeding, good luck

Normaly that would be plenty of time to establish good roots. But because you overfed and overwatered, the roots maybe rotting. Flushing might damage them even more. If it was mine, I would repot with soil perlite mix turn off the led and keep the mh 40" from the plant for 2-3 days, then as it recovers gradually lower the light to 24".

Lol, growsince79 probably knows better... I could have called myself growsince2017... I'm bowing out here.

Good luck! Happy growing!

Yo you should only be using PH’D water at that stage. Are you using regular tap water too? Because if so that water has a lot of chlorine in. Let your water sit out for 24 hrs before use PH it and water. Do that for a while, you should be good!
