So it seems my young ones got nute burned, and I have been browsing around for a while looking for how long you are supposed to flush.

Plants are 2 1/2 weeks old in a dwc bucket.

How long should I just let them chill in the ph adjusted water?

Thanks

24 hours should be enough... and then add nutrients VERY VERY slowly.. meaning a very diluted mixture...

do you have a ppm meter?

sorry about your burn
cheers

If the problem persists, you may want to flush again for an additional 24hr period.

Ya I honestly couldn't find this info before, so I flushed the plants for ~3 hours then put in a smaller amount of nutes.

The problem started again, so it seems 24 hours might do the trick.

How diluted should I make it, I don't have a ppm meter sadly, so percentages would help more if available.

Thanks guys.

Just don't give nutes fer a few days, then give it something like 1/2 the regulare dose you gave before. So if you put 2tsp - 1 gal water, use 1tsp to 1 gal.
