Over done it with nitrogen?

[LewisR19]

hello chaps, slowly creeping towards the end of my first grow. I have this C4 auto girl that?s about 5 1/2 weeks in, flowering for about 2 weeks now. she?s had dark leaves for a while now, never really took any notice to it as I never thought it was a problem but it clearly is. I?ve flushed the coco twice with ph?d water in the last 3-4 days now. EC out is 0.8. Should I keep doing the flush until it?s as low as possible and slowly introduce feed again?


Since doing the flush twice I?ve noticed a lighter shade of green is coming back to the big fan leaf in the middle.

I wouldnt flush if your not ready to flush mate.
Im no pro but id just lower the feed for each feeding abit to lighting them up and slowly work your feed down till you start flushing

Did you check run off EC before flushing mate? Its a good way to gauge what EC you need to be putting in

If youve noticed the leaves starting to pale off then id add some feed, maybe at 0.8 EC but i dunno what you were feeding before?

EC out before the flush was like 3.2, so a build up somewhere. I was feeding at EC 1.3-1.5 ish

Got it right down then mate! Id feed at 0.8 EC daily with plenty of run off then keep an eye on them, increase at 0.2 a time if you notice theyre still pale

Cheers mate, I was planning on getting it as low as I can and start with 0.8-0.9EC. It seems to be progressing fine, buds fattening daily. Is it possible to overcome getting her back to normal?

Im still new to growin myself mate but the way i see it, if you have too much nitrogen then flushing and feeding less leads to the plant using the stored N that it has

Similar to a final flush before chop but youre feeding low levels to stop a build up again. There may be ill effects after as a result but im not sure and wouldnt like to call it either way

In a dilemma now as to what to do haha. I think il just keep feeding less, hoping she uses up the stored N that’s already in. Just try and ride it out I suppose

You should be fine at just feeding with a lower EC mate, the run offs come down massively anyway so i wouldnt worry

My background EC is 0.1/0.2 and im feeding at 1.0 EC so you should be fine at 0.8 mate
