Johnnyrocket...

You have probably killed your plants.

That is the only stuff in the world worse than Miracle Grow.

Never ever ever feed with time released nutes.......never.

--------------------------------------------------------------


As to what you can do?

Flush?

No....it will continue to release the nutes.

The only thing I can do is tell you what I would do if I were you....


Scrape as much top soil off as you can. Get rid of the soil until you scrape roots. Even then some...when you see roots, throw Schultz Rooting Hormone Powder all over the top soil.

Remove plant from container.

Scrape as much soil as you can from the sides....and bottoms. As the roots appear, dust them with Schultz Rooting Powder and keep working. You cant over do it with the rooting hormones...apply to every root you come across.

Get as much dirt off the root as you can...do not penetrate too far into the root ball, but...you need to get the dirt off that you can.

Transplant into new soil and new container. fill with clean fresh WET medium.

This can be similar to open heart surgery. There is a great chance your plant will die in this procedure.

You may want to wait and get some other advice......but the clock is against you.

Wait to see if someone offers a better prognosis and advice....

Sorry but time released nutes are the death knell to these plants.

Best of luck to you johnnyrocket .....
HARDDON Reviewed by HARDDON on . Bottom Leaves Sick, Please Help, Expert Advice Please Please help with my plants, they have gotten sick on me about 5 days ago. The leaves are turning brown from the bottom up, 2 of my plants have lost the first and second set of leaves (from the bottom up). I did some research and thought I was low on P, so I gave them some epson salt and a little bone meal to bump the P. This is the only nuts I have given the plants for they are only 18 days old. Here are some specifics: Soil: 1/2 Scotts Potting Soil .08 .12.08 Nut Levels, 1/4 Perlite, Rating: 5
