Long story short. Grew a gorgeous, potent lady by seed in a closet under CFL's that I harvested after a year of growth. Yes, a year. Lots of LST'ing, FoxFarm trio nutes and about 6 CFL's of varying light colors. Herb was great and abundant. Cloned 4 which are doing well but still babies. Soil mixture was the .5/.5/.5 I had read suggested once before. When harvest was over, I trimmed her up and revegged her. I did not flush as I apparently incorrectly read that when using organics, there was no need to flush.

Four months into the new growth my lady starts to develop some yellowish leaves. I noticed water seemed to now be running right through her and lots of salt was accumulating in and on top of the soil. I could sprinkle water evenly across the soil but absolutely NOTHING would go into the soil and instead would usually run down off to the sides of the pot and down to the bottom and out. I decided to try and take her outside to flush her. After breaking off 2 limbs like a fool, I managed to get her into a new pot. My rootball was still pretty big but I filled in the rest of the pot with new .5.5.5.

Despite the issue, I feel she is looking better but my question is, what is the name of this soil condition? So salty it will not absorb any water?

Thank you in advance all for the assistance.
