    Flushing Coco N Toxicity

    Hey folks.
    I did a foliar spray, last night and woke up to some downturned leaf tips. Figure it's probably nitrogen toxicity.
    Everything I've read about nutes and water say coco needs nutes with every watering.
    Since I've over N'd, is flushing with nuteless, pH'd CalMag a good solution for de-N'ing. Maybe plain pH'd?

    Nebula's schedule calls for plain ph'd water every other feeding. I use plain ph'd water 2 times a week on Tuesday & Friday. I don't ever spray them with anything. Unless you are in a very dry environment I see no need, and in fact I do everything to keep them dry while growing. Humidity is usually high here. Flushing will wash out excess N but don't over do it.

    Don't worry, be happy, grow sticky buds.

    Got that Ckbrew .
    This grow is based on another one of Nebula's fantastic reports. This was for a light review. She explained her setup for the grow, and that's what I'm following. This one calls for nutes at every watering. It wasn't until I sprayed that I had the problem Hadn't watered but two days before. Won't get any more until tomorrow. I'll stick with the pH'd CalMag and avoid foliar spraying. It looks like too much food.

    The only plant I can't tell about Ntox is the 'marigold.' Damn crazy leaves to tell if anything is wrong!

        I've been spraying my plants since I started growing. This has never happened. With lots of following posts and the GWE website, I am super not worried because I know what's going on.
        The NPK values between the Fox Farm nutrients I was using before and the DynaGro I'm using now are minimal. 1-2 points higher in the DG. I don't think that is the issue.
        Average daily humidity in San Diego is 74. We get a few days a year that are exceptionally dry. Usually Santa Ana winds in the summer from the mountains bring them. Single digit and teen RH numbers come with them. Last night was rain. Without a hygrometer I know the humidity was well above the average 74.
        I'll probably do the universal flush method of Ntox. Can't go wrong with water.

          Well !! Well !! I've just learn something. I see San Diego is not as dry that I imagine. But then you are close from the Pacific ocean. I get the same in Yucatan coming from the Gulf of Mexico. The locals hate me over there when it's El Norte season. I'm the only stupid gringo walking in the village blinded by the sand blown by the wind of the North. I never learn my lesson.

          San Diego is a desert, believe it or not.

        Whole friggin state is a desert with burnt forests were not getting too far behind here up in Oregon. But there blaming the gorilla growers for using and polluting watersheds. It's coming down to who's got the mass majority of legal grow ops. Better collect that rain water else once it hits the ground belongs to the state so i've heard?

            I kinda feed every watering but also will skip a feed if i see any tox symptoms. I do exactly what you did as well. Sometimes even with plain ro water. The main thing i make sure is to never go 2 waterings without feed, especially in flower when the plant needs the most. It takes some getting used to but i love growing in coco now!

              I like nute'ing at every watering Tersky There's something satisfying in feeding your plants rather than just watering.

                Also had some taco'ing of leaves on my tallest plant. Moved it a few inches from the light and things were right as hot cocoa on a cold morn.

                    Well HR is lower in the "grow room" cuz it's getting colder here. This morning it was 41% and 23C (73F). I'm keeping them "alive" for a few more days to see how much purple they will get. You know like been outside naked at a temp of 30F.
