    So very sorry I didn't mean to leave you hanging bro. Jim in the US the very best Organic soil I know of is, ROOTS ORGANIC! Just add RO all the way to the end! The Best Soil-less substrate is PRO MIX!

    Its amazing to me that fertilizer manufactures are are allowed to instruct people to burn the hell out of their plants just so they can sell more ferts. A good rule of thumb when it comes to mixing ferts., is to start at 1/4 their recommendation! If you have an EC meter then, no more than 0.8 mS/cm on soil!

    Jeez fella, i feel for you i really do, just when the slag should be fattening you're still wondering WTF. Tbh it looks like a totally deficient plant that is winding down, but i doubt that is the case as its what 8 weeks since changing the light? Have you looked at the roots? also sniff around for a moldy rotten smell underneath the pots where roots would come out. check for nats etc also, theres not much i can say, i doubt it is over fed now after that flush. She prob needs some food, did you give any

    Organic nutrients, will drop the pH of the water down around 5.8 pH or more when using RO or Rain. The Humic acid in the feed is acidic. So If you have a super soil that is loaded with amendments and add the Humic acid then the pH drops down to about 4.5 pH. With that pH you get lock out. If you want to run Organic Grow using organic nutrients, then you need a basic mix like Sunshine Mix # 4 with Mycorrhizae or Promix with Mycorrhizae and run the Organic nutrients with every watering! Organic nutrients, and super organic soils are not a good match because it becomes too acidly! It can be done but the pH must be watched closely! Like I said, not a good match!

    That being said, the nutrient content is very low say EC .49 on organic nutrients at a full dose, and is best to be added with every watering from the beginning. That way you can build a micro herd starting fresh! Its not a Zinc def.
