Hi all, I need your help. I believe I am fighting off major nute burn in my babies and after following some posts I read on this fourm I am still loosing them. They are still in Veg state and measuring nearly 2ft. The stuf I was using has a 3-2-2 (terracycle) and was sprayed on soil and foilage once a week. About 3-4 oz was applied. My results are two ladies rotting from from the soil up. I will have pics up ASAP (as soon as I find cord to camera). I have been battling this problem for nearly 3 weeks and have been watering heavily. The fert has not been applied for over 2 weeks. From what I have read they will recover but I am fearful because the browning and rotting is moving higher and higher up the stock. ANYTHING I CAN DO more?

SetUP
HPS 600 watt system, MG soil, Cow fert, Rain Water filtered!!!!
 
not posative but im pretty sure miracle grow soils allready have time released nutes in them so you dont really need to add nutes. Ive seen so many nubies on this forum burn their plants due to miracle grow so I have never touched the stuff. But there is some guys on here that grow some crazy buds and swear by the stuff but i stay away from it.

I am no expert , but when I did a similar thing , I put my girl into the bath , used a shower head on gentle spray and gave her a really good wash and I mean really good until the water comming out the bottom was clear. I then turned the soil over gently and sprayed more to make sure there was no newts left. I then didnt water her for about 5 days and she recoverd slowly. If its rotting you need to get plenty of fresh air to it aswell and dig some holes in the soil to allow oxygen in. If anyone else disagress hey im no expert.
 
IMO it sounds like your having lots of problems here. Too much food MG has plenty of nutes in it to start to feed though the whole grow and if you want to add some flowering nutes when its time you can but in small doses. Sounds like your over watering too, might want to get a moisture meter and see just how wet you medium is, and if your spraying the nutes on as a foiler feed then that may be why its burning them ie seen many a plant that will burn from nutes on stem and leaf with HID lights on them.
 
thanks all

I knoiw I am not over watering becasue if they go more than a day they will start to droop. i will continue to avoid using any more fert and keep the water flowing

They are not looking to good on the bottom. I hope its saveable


Thanks all
