GAVE TOO MUCH BLOOM

[JLYRIC]

I JUST GAVE MY PLANTS SOME BLOOM BUT I GAVE THEM 7.5 TBS WHEN I WAS REALLY ONLY SUPPOSED TO GIVE THEM 7.5 TSP. SHOULD I TRY FLUSHING THEM OUT ASAP? IS IT TO LATE?

LOL water that mothefucker like hell. after it dries out i'd try to take it out of the pot and then clean that out to get residual nutes out that'll continue to get absorbed otherwise. I'm really stoned dood I feel bad for you rofl.

dude, just water them good with reg. water and you're fine. that's hilarious, man, but seriously, you're fine.

I WATER THEM DOWN RIGHT AFTER I GAVE THE BLOOM TO THEM AND I MEAN DRENCHED THE SHIT OUT OF THEM. I ONLY GAVE IT TO 2 OUT OF MY 5 PLANTS. I HOPE THEY MAKE IT! I HAVE THEM IN SMART POT'S AND THEY DRAIN REALLY FAST SO I HOPE ALL THE WATER I GAVE THEM HELPED OUT. IM GOING TO KEEP WATERING THEM DOWN ALL DAY TOMORROW. WHAT DO YOU THINK? DO YOU THINK THEY GOT A SHOT ON MAKING IT?

Don't water too much dood you don't wanna drown your roots and damage them too by doing that to often. Like i said clean out the container and you let it dry for awhile make sure you wipe it clean so theres nothing deposited on it.

Just using one good flush should do the trick. Flush with ph corrected water about 5-10 times the amount of the container. i.e. if you have a 1 gallon pot then flush with five to ten gallons of water. This will remove any nutes that have been put in aswell as any salt build up. After you flush your plants, water with a very "LIGHT" nute solution then dont water for a couple of days. Hope this helps ya.

Flush those babies....talk to them...apologize....tell them you care!

Just flush the poor things!

Be cool...relaxe...their not going to absorb all that nute in one day....but you must flush!:thumbsup:

WELL I WOKE UP THIS MORNING AND CHECKED ON MY BABYS AND THEY DONT LOOK YELLOW OR BURNED UP, DOES THIS MEAN THAT THEIR GOING TO MAKE IT? I HAVE THEM IN 10 GAL POTS SO HOW MUCH WOULD I HAVE TO WATER THEM TO GET A GOOD FLUSH? ALSO YOU THINK I SHOULD WATER THEM WITH A VERY LIGHT NUTES SOLUTION EVEN AFTER I GAVE THEM ALL THAT BLOOM?

[Smoketobehappy]

IF you have a 10 gal container you'd need to flush it with 50 gallons of water minimum.

[BlewBerry]

You water with the Light nute solution AFTER you flush. The "flush" does exactly what it means. It will flush away all the nutes and salts in your soil, thus leaving it without ANY nutes. This is why the light solution is needed. While doing this you might want to check out the ph of your runoff.

If the nutes are organic, don't even sweat it. If they're chemical, just skip the next feeding.

[BudE714]

Flush them until you se the water running freely from the bottom of the pots. Hard to say how much water is needed considering the consitency of your soil!

[Smoketobehappy]

If the nutes are organic, don't even sweat it. If they're chemical, just skip the next feeding.

This guy has a point with the whole organic thing, although I wouldn't say not to make a big deal of it because I think what you did created a pretty serious problem. However, its true that organic nutrients are far less prone to burn plants unlike chemical fertilizers.

[Mustelid]

Well, another reason I don't think it's serious enough to panic is that it was bloom, which has less nitrogen in it. N is what burns roots the most.

JUST WANTED TO THANK ALL OF YOU FOR GIVING ME YOUR INPUT AND IM HAPPY TO SAY THAT MY BABYS ARE DOING JUST FINE. I FLUSHED THEM OUT JUST IN TIME AND LEARNED A VERY BIG LESSON, DONT TRY TO FEED YOUR BABYS WHEN YOUR COMA TOAST! LOL. THANKS AGAIN. OH YA IN CASE YOU HAVEN'T FIGURED IT OUT THIS IS MY FIRST YEAR GROWING BUT ITS BEEN REAL. HOPE EVERYBODY HAS A GREAT HARVEST THIS YEAR.
