    I have a 9 week old female from bagseed, just started flower two days ago. She was transplanted about two weeks ago into 5 gallon. Soil is FF Ocean Forest, using direct sunlight. She is 33" tall.

    There was originally some very minor nute burn right before transplant, also root bound. Since transplant, NUTE BURN HAS GOTTEN 10X WORSE, AND IT JUST KEEPS SPREADING, even to smaller leaves. I thought that she would have bounced back by now, apparently not. I have not given her any nutrients at all, just what was in FF Ocean Forest soil. I've been watering every 5 days.

    Leaves started burning on very edges, but I also have spots, some white some brown. The bottom of the plant looks worst with couple leaves completely dead, light yellow but thats not my concern, the very top is started to get seriously affected with all leaves curling / folding inward.

    Is there anything I can do to stop this nute burn? Or does my plant just have to use up all the nutrients in the soil first ?    ​

First mistake was transplanting a nute burned root bound plant into hot soil.What soil was you using before?And are you watering every 5 days really or does it just so happen to dry out every 5 days? Me personally would flush and and don't even think about watering until the pot is light and soil is almost completely dry,sometimes flushing while it has wet soil already will cause over watering drooping but i'd rather have a few droopy leaves for a week than dying nute burn leaves that seem to be spreading.

SOOOOOOO THERES BASICALLY NOTHING I CAN DO BUT WAIT IT OUT ? I've been watering when its bone dry for past 2 weeks, otherwise theres not much I can do that I know of. I think she'll be ok in couple more weeks.

Flushing soil with nutrient capsules already in it will just release more nutrients. I say wait it out if it is just slow release nutrients and it will hopefully use up all the nutes that have been released. it's definitely rectifiable. Just water when it is completely dry because watering releases more nutrients. if it continues transplant to soil with no nutes.

first you need to check to make sure your PH is in a good range 6.2 to 7.0. If its out of range (most likely acidic) then you need to add some calcium to help bring it back up. Dolomite lime is one of the best ways of doing this. Its not fast acting and can take up to a week before you plants start to intake it...but adding it now will last all the way to harvest.

If its not the PH then you need to feed her..its that simple

What I would do if its a PH problem and that was my plant is take it back out of the pot. Mix in half a cup of dolomite lime into the new soil and replant it again....and fill that pot ALL the way up with soil...no need to waste that space...fill her all the way to rim.

So just to make it clear...PH problem replant with some lime...no PH problem she just needs some firts, shes hungry.
