Please help

So I have a Six Shooter two weeks old and some purple punch babies. The other day i used coz peoduction using vinegar and baking soda drip method when i got back from work my girls were in serious stress and SS was drooping with copper leaves and browning and dying. The purples took a nasty hit too on the tips. Is it possible the vinegar fumes hurt them? I checked ph of runoff and it was 7.9 adding 6.8 ph water to it. So did this baking soda and vinegar setup raise my soil ph and cause lockout of nutes? I did grow before and did great job and didnt have access to the nutes i have now but i have Fox Farm big bloom and grow big and tiger. I also have cal mag and maganese and rapid start along with super thrive. I have organic fish fertilizer i used to flush the soil and still at 7.2ph. Please help me fix this lockout its driving me nuts. My strwberry banana just popped and dont want those girls getting same dumb treatment but heres pics of damage. Oh yeah i have 2000w led in 4x4 tent as well. Just need tips on how to fix problem and prevent future issues. As well as a different co2 production method. Thank for the help guys.

Honestly I’m not sure you WHY you are adding all kinds of crap to such a simple plant and grow.

Medium ( soil ) could have fed , rooted and began initial growth all by itself on just water.
Adding all of those unnecessary elements just pretty much wrecked your shit. All you had to do is run ph stable water ( 6.5 ) to match the soil and that’s it ...... now they are probably stressed and stunted from all of the crazy additions.

Only hope is ..
transplant them into another container of unaltered soil ... see if they will recover on just watering ( when necessary).

The only reason I do not recommend adding or flushing anything “ as is “ is the fact that soil is so thrown out of whack it would be a moot point. Also forget CO2 with this grow , it will add nothing to it , especially in their current condition.


Worst case scenario.... shitcan them.

Man your trying to build a house without the land to build on.anyways dont worry so much about fertilizer and food and all that shit you have a while before you need anything if at all.
I have not used 1 drop of fertilizer or anything to feed just straight happy frog soil.

I'm not a pro by any means but I'd never mix vinegar and my plants EVER. My neck of woods vinegar is a weed killer.

if your gna keep giving nutriets after everyone told you that you still have seedlings basically dont bother your killing it as a baby....dont come on here asking for help your plants or i should say stem with a leaf on it will burn up so just keep doing what you've already done and kiss plant goodbye

It isn't a vinegar issue, fox farms is notorious for over feeding to sell more product cut back to 1/4 recommended dosages and you will get better results

You just said you flushed twice with fish fertilizer. That is "nutes". You also said you were going to continue to feed Mon, Wed, Fri.

No one is bashing you. You were given sound advice from a solid grower and yet you decided you want to continue to do what you think is best instead. Someone pointed out the fact that you ignored good advice and now you are upset. No big deal, they are your plants.
