Having some troubles with watering?

Well from the start, all the plants were slightly turning yellow here and there. I suspected the soil was the cause, which is miracle grow :roll: but it has worked perfectly, many times before. Now its in week 5-6 of flowering and it seems everytime i water the ladies they get even more nutrient burnt and now the tips are curling and such. The 2 questions are:

1. will the plants still grow properly with these yellow leaves or if all the leaves fall off and just have the leaves surrounding the buds

2. is there anyway to fix this, this far into the grow, lol. As stated above, i dont think "flushing" is an option here.

we need pics. burns and def. can look alike. flushing is always an option, and probably the best bet. flushing never hurts, you can always add back nutrients. how often do you water? how much run off? have you fed them?

btw.....mg fucking sucks for pot.

Sure you arent over watering? Yellowing leaves starting at the bottom of the plant is a sign over over/under watering......MG soil can be tough to gauge, it holds alot of water for a long time.

MG doesnt suck, it isnt perfect but it does not suck. Ive used it in the past and not had problems except for fungus gnats.

considering there are 100's of other options that are better...yeah it sucks. i've spent hundreds on the various FF soils and never had a bug. i used 1 bag of MG organic and watched my babies burn up, and then the gnats came.....comparing mg to just about any other soil is like comparing mcdonalds to filet mignon. the meat comes from the same place, but the difference in quality is overwhelming. chances are his ph is south of 6 with the mg.

I should have been more clear, it is NOT the best choice; obviously....Ive used it in the past in a pinch (hard to find soil in New England in January) and it was OK at best, definitely gotta flush that shit.....and the gnats sucked.

Im using FF stuff now after mixing my own soil for years, and its world apart from MG, but in a pinch if theres nothing else MG will work, just dont expect miracles :-)
