Hi people

I dont know what going on but the leaves have gone reeely bad!!

any help is apreciated! its lowryder btw

Looks like nute burn to me. Flush it with a gallon or two of plain water and use 1/2 strength nutes...work up from there. It will be fine...the lower leaves are sacrificial to me anyway...sort of how I gage the right nute levels.

looks fine to me, as long as the buds arent browning or anything. lower leaves die off as the plant approaches harvest time.

ya but that little guy is nowhere near harvest. Thats nute burn, clear as day.

Do not feed half strength! the poor bugger needs no more nutes... let it recover... :)

No actually after a proper flush, you HAVE to do a final flush to 'replace' the clean flush water with a weak nute solution.
You have just stripped the soil of its nutrients and you don't want to add 'starvation' to the list of stresses the little plant has suffered.
I would say 1/4-1/2 strength.

But yeah that thing is burnt to a crisp. Gotta flush.
