Freaking a little - advice please

First of all I apologize for the HPS lighting. I tried to alter the filters on paintshop so it wouldnt be as bad. Okay I should have done a search before buying this crap. Flower Fuel 1-34-32

It has a double side scoop. The instructions say 1 small side scoop per gallon. So being careful instead of 5, I only used 2 1/2 small scoops. Stirred it and left it to sit overnight so it would be mixed in good. No other nutes used. Plants are in 5g fabric containers been in flowering 2 weeks. I noticed when I went to water the water was slightly tinted copper color. Ok unusual but dont usually see this with my regular nutrients. All the same I only watered 1/2 the usual. Im not feeling good about this....

So I come back and search and wow mostly bad reviews but I didnt see any damage reports on that its a bunch of snake oil.

30 minutes later I go and check on plants and leaves are dropping everywhere. Strangely enough my Durban Poison seemed unaffected (so far) but the Maui and the Thai didnt like it all all and are very unhappy. Im worried this crap has hurt them.

I dont have and unchlorinated water ready and I already poured out this crap. Should I flush immediately my son has some chlorine remover that he uses in his fish ponds I could use if the need to ne flushed now. Or should I just wait and watch? They still need another liter of water that I held back today

I made filtered them black and white I dont like the yellow hps either.

I have a question to ask first. Why did you buy the Flower Fuel?

Sounded like a good thing.... should have searched here first

Let's put the Flower Fuel away. What other nutrients are you using? Also, please don't put more water on the plants. At least not yet.

Hi, Im a beginner grower myself but from what I can see those N-P-K amounts are way more than what i've seen on most nutes

For reference my bottled bloom nutes have a N-P-K of 4-10-11

Could it be a possible shock?

No. He just fed his plants a shit ton of sugar. With hardly any buds on them. Just relax and wait a few hours. Could have burned them but can't tell yet. The best thing to do is either leave them alone for a few hours and see how they respond..................or flush with WATER only. No food, or anything else.

I used nothing the first month then started feeding Fox farms (grow big 6-4-4 only at about 3/4 dosage for the last 6 weeks) Because I am a beginner Ive always used far less than recommended.

Plants are already looking better than they were 30 minutes ago leaves have leveled out with only the tips slightly drooping now.

6-4-4 can be used the whole way. If you use the Tiger Bloom please use @ 1/4 strength. That stuff is the strongest and most acidic stuff around. The Flower Fuel is a huge booster and IMO, is not needed ever in anyones grow.

Flower Fuel is GONE. That was scary enough. I'll just stay with the 6-4-4.

Thank you very much for the response and advice!

And nothing wrong with chlorinated water,if you wish just let it sit before you use.

That flower fuel is a complete rip off. It's mostly just monopotassium phosphate, potassium sulfate, magnesium sulfate and some other stuff to make the ingredient list look better. You're better of without it or if you're set on using boosters just get a pound of monopotassium phosphate, potassium sulfate, and a bag of epsom salts for around the same price as a small container of that overpriced nonsense.
