Turn out you need a flushing agent, and it's proven that just water alone will do next to nothing. I'm gonna go grab some now!

You can use RO or distilled water to remove any of the buildup. The flushing agent just gives it that added boost. I learned that from Jorges cervantes and Ed Rosenthal books.

Here's a screenshot of the excerpt about flushing I got from my book. Sorry if all the Os aren't colored in lol. The info on the site is correct, however it isn't required but it does help. Just wanted to show you that there was an alternative instead of going out to buy more stuff is all.

KISS!!! I grew white widow with the same fox farm nuts. I used at half strength and had a lot of success. I did need to add 5ml of calmag per gallon of water every other feeding. Changes should be gradual and you should tread lightly. Your scrog seems too small/too full. White widow has huge fan leaves that block the sunlight to other buds. Also it looks like you may have heat problems. Run your lights at night and raise your light to the top of your tent, your plant will get enough light. For good YouTube videos check out h.h.t. My white widow took 11 weeks so I no longer grow it. Critical kush is doing wonders for me in similar set up. My advice as a newer grower myself is wait for first amber trichomes flush and feed ph water then havest 5-10 days later.

ps that branch will heal!!

People will tell you 1000 ways to improve. KISS Focus on these main things constant ph!! 6.0 allows for a buffer if your meter is off. light schedule. Temps under 83. Master the simple things before stressing your plant out more losing yield instead of gaining. Save topping fimming and all that extra bs and learn how to grown a plant without stressing it first.

Cool, I've been using full strength nutes since week 1 of flowering. My pheno as well ate alot of Cal-Mag 3/ml/gal. I didn't really even attempt a scrog it was more like an LST, but I started to late and just pitched the idea. Next grow I'm going to actually build a screen and scrog the whole way through. My next grow should be spot on with nutes with little stress. How do you figure im having heat problems? HPS lighting loses its intensity if its further then 25 inches from the top of the plant. As long as their is no feeling of heat with your hand in the space between it's fine. I'm growing with constant temps of 70-85 with more then sufficient air flow. I've kept my ph 5.5-5.8 throughout and yeah I posted a few pages back it healed fine and has some dense nug on it. I switched the timer down to 8hrs and have been flushing for 4 days. Will harvest in 12 days.

Hey everyone I decided to harvest the plant today after seeing a decent amount of amber/cloudy trics. Today was the 60th day of flowering as suggested by seeds man. I was left with 580 grams of wet buds and 250 wet grams of shake/popcorn. What do you guys think the buds will dry down to? I'll post pics soon.

Awesome man. I can't believe she's gone lol. I'm projecting about almost a little over half a pound off of her and that sounds awesome! Congrats on finishing her all the way through!

Thanks alot! She definitely could have used some lsting from the get go. The smaller buds don't seam dense at all, but the other main buds are pretty thick. Probably another 4-7 days of flushing would've helped as well. After how much weight I lost I think ill be lucky to get around a qp ,maybe a little more. Either way its for my self so im pretty happy with everything and learned alot. My next grow should be spot on. My 2nd BHO run is almost done vaccum purging. I Just used sugar leaf and popcorn nugs its starting to get clear, but I had blow back in the pan. Either way it should be flame just not to pretty. My first small run is see threw though. I froze 2 day old trim ran it once then let it dry out for a day blended it then ran again. Will post pics later tonight!
