    Plz help, I think I have a nutrient problem

    Hello everyone, I'm still very new to growing and my 1st grow (5 plants) was a success. I'm on my 2nd and I'm 5 wks into flowering and I have a suspicion I have a Nitrogen issue but I'm not sure. Unfortunately I do not know the strain and I'm using Miracle Gro Potting Soil as by Sub. I WILL NOT b using it from here on out due to the extended release of nutes and how MJ does not need the Nit in her flowering stage. Until I finish my grow how do or can I remedy the problem I'm having until I get to harvest. So the leaves have started changing a lighter green popping up with some brown tips. The lighting isnt the issue & theres plenty of airflow. I WILL be changing to a fox farm Sub or another one that's easier for MJ to grow in. I do have Sensi Cal & Beasty Bloomz. I used them both once a week in my mid to later bloom cycle. I'll try n upload some pictures but having an issue right this minute. Thanks for any advice

    Flush the rest of the Nitrogen out of the soil - would I say. And then feed it with bloom nutrients after.
    definitely a nitrogen toxicity you have here.
    but do you monitor the Ph levels ?

    don’t know the soil you are using, I use straight up tomato soil, no problem at all with growing in this medium.
    Just because people are over 50 doesn’t mean they know everything.
    You can teach a old dog new tricks - But it will still think the old ways are the “best” lol

      Yes it's about the only thing you can do is flush. I guess from what i've read that stuff feeds for almost 6months? What the heck is in that soil MG?

        Captain W I do Ph the distilled water i use and keep it between like 6.0-6.8 but I have seen a soil ph monitor and prolly should pick 1 up. But I'm definitely gonna change my medium when I transplant my grease mo key, cookies n cream & gorilla glue. I feel more comfortable cuz its built for the entire life of the plant. What's the name of the tomato soil u use if u dont mind me asking.
        also, how can I flush it properly if by doing that it release more nutes. That's my guess if the nutes last for 6months. The little balls r nutes n water dissolves them into the soil cuz I was really thinking about running a few gallons thru it

          It’s just standard tomato soil from a garden store. Every garden store have bags of soil for tomatoes.

          How big is your pot ? - flush 2-3 times the amount of water, than your pot is, through soil.
          Then you water with a light nutrient feed

          I’ve never tried it. Just using tap water, always done that.

        I have used it only for ironing but that's 30+yrs ago. Don't partake in that fun hobby anymore

          Distilled water is H2O with nothing else in it.
