If you're positive it's nitrogen burn, flush with 1-2 times the volume of the pot with properly ph'd water. Recovery takes a week or so. Watch the new growth, as the burned leaves won't heal. (old leaves are old news) Adjust your nutrient schedule or dosage.
If you're guessing that it's from nitrogen OD, filling out the form and providing a picture would be a benefit.
Rusty Im computer dumb so thats why so slow on response. my plant is in the 3rd of flowering on 11/13. I flushed 6.5ph water past few days.The plant has a bluish color to the leaves with a dark green color of the shade leafs.

sorry I was logged in Ecobane's All my info. is there.
Raise the lights, or pull the plant to the outside edge of the room. Try different angles and positions. You'll get it eventually. Try and keep the camera itself out of the direct light, too.Quote:

Try having a look at Fox Farms online Weekly Feeding Schedule. (Google it)Quote:
