Blue Dream and Grand Daddy Purple problem

I believe I hit them too hard with Fox Farms fertilizer blend. I tested my ph from my runoff and it was down to a 4.0. I moved the plants to the shower and ran alot and i mean alot of water through them.

Two days later they look pretty rough. The soil is obviously still very most from the flush.

Any suggestions? Is the last thing i want to do is hit them with more fertilizers? They look pretty yellow.

I will answer any questions you have.

Thank you for your time.

Hello,

First of all, i would flush them with 6.0 to 6.3PH water or until your run off is 6.0 then let them dry a little. Then start back the feeding schedule. At the moment it seems there is a lock out due to acidic PH.

What is your feeding schedule?

ps:if you decide to flush them to fix the PH, be sure you have enough air flow and not high humidity to avoid mold.

Thanks for your reply.

I used 7.0 tap water and flushed multiple gallons through them. And I mean pitcher after pitcher in the tub. My run off was near 6.0.

I have been for the most part sticking to the fox farms feeding schedule using big bloom, grow big and tiger bloom.

I take it the pocket of fert and no water inbetween burned them.

6/16 transplanted to 5 gallon
6/16 week 4 fertilizer 12 cups water
6/24 sledgehammer + water
6/26 moved to 12/12
6/28 week 5 12/12 fert + water
7/1 week 5 12/12 fert + water
7/3 week 5 12/12 fert + water
7/7 plain water
7/10 week 6 fert and water.
7/13 plain water
7/15 plain water flush

Usually what i do is;

If i water 3 time a week;

-Feed, Feed, Water then repeat

If twice a week;

Feed, water then repeat

Always be sure that your mix PH is 6.0 to 6.3 before watering (If your medium is at right ph)
