Hi all,
I'm a newbie - long time smoker, first time grower. I know a few people who grow, and I even have a Hyrdro store nearby, but I am constantly trying to diagnose new problems. At the moment I only have two plants growing for 1 month on 18/6 in Bio-bizz mix soil (with a bit of cocco mixed in) at around 70degrees, little humidity, and an open loft window for natural ventilation.
So, my main worry is whether or not to bother to flush this little plant of what little nutes it has. I have been watering them every day with tap water and only recently (3-4days) have been adding fert (Bio Bizz food) with water. Since they had recently been transplanted and my other surviving tree had the early stages of root rot (yellow, weakened stem, coming up from base, turning leaves yellow & dead in it's path upwards - I'm assuming that was the problem!?), I also added another mixture of superthrive & organic algae that I have been spraying at the base, under leaves, etc.. The root rot seemed to slow down, so I continued applying both solutions to both plants, until my healthy one, turned into the unhealthy one. It now has yellow/brown spots on the edges of the top fan leaves, the leaves are curling under, and drying up quickly. Now I desperately want to remedy my sloppy greenthumb, so should I flush or continue to feed with normal tap water only? I have been feeding both plants the same amount of water, so I'm assuming it's nutes, rather than overwatering - but they do say, assumption is the mother of all fuckups, so pls help me!!
Yr combined wisdom is greatly appreciated,
Peace.


PS - Is it a bad idea to flush a plant that has been over watered, or when in doubt should I always flush first, ask questions later!? Thanks.
