big time N toxicity

leave off the nutes for a while. What are you feeding and how often?
Agreed.....ease up on the steroids you got those things shriveling up like a sun dried tomatoe .........in all seriousness though lay off the food for a bit the dark ass leaves and the curling in of the tips or better known as the claw is due to N tox
 
I'm using Buddha Bloom 2 tablespoons per gallon. Ok no more feedings for awhile. The soil is damp and I was told to wait till it's dry to water them again. No more feedings for awhile. I promise! I watered them with regular water on Sunday, fed on Tuesday and today.
I also staked them up so they're well supported.

I've had nitro toxicity cause a shine when I first started growing. On another note tho... maybe his soil already has nutes In them? Just a water and go. A lot of organic growers do it that way. Just a thought.

God I hadn't even thought of that! He is organic for sure. I wonder if there's a way to test the soil to find out if he used a soil with nutes in it first??

Well..... they do make nute testers but now it's all loaded with the ferts that you have. Since a lot of organic growers use time release the only way to tell is flush it with plain water then wait a bit then test the soil. They sell all kinds of testers but make sure it has good reviews.

Ok good to know. Thank you so much!

Should I flush it now? Or should I wait because I just watered?

Won't my plants be over watered then? And how much would you use? A gallon per plant?
As long as it has really good drainage it can handle one good flush. And honestly I would use a gallon or two to really get that excess nitrogen out of there. As long as you let it dry out after it won't hurt it any.

Ok I read on here to pour it in slowly so that the roots soak up the nutrients. Obviously in this case that's not why I'm doing it but ok I'll give that a try. The water runs out of the bottom fairly quickly so I think that'll help. I just don't want to over water.
