Bump! Know I just posted but instead of clearing up over past week has gotten worse so would like to nip in butt haha
 
Rule of thumb. Flush if u think its a problem with "too much" of something if the problem consists after the flush, start weighing ur other options. Possibly under.feeding if flush isnt helping. Should mention after flushing start ur feeding at 1/4 strength if u suspect a problem. What was ur nute strength prior to flush? What nutes are u using? How old are the plants? Lots of variables here.

Yeah, I NEVER liked that damn "FF" soil!! And the reason being is its just too "HOT" from my experiance! That's why I mix my own up bro... so "I" know exactly what all is going in it, and I am the one controlling what goes in it aswell!!
if it where me, I would go ahead & start feeding with a diluted mixture of your nutes!! What I do is whatever the nutes I am using at the time, "whatever" it states in the directions, I go under whatever there telling you to start off with!! Then if they (plants) respond good to it, I bump up my nutes just a tad each feeding.. ;) hope that helps ya bro..

Ok think I figured it out !! Besides the N tox ph was off my meter ph up down n I thought calibration 7 and 4 but got 10 and 4. Checked water after calibration and was 7.8!! The aquarium drops showed like 7.2! So I believe that is my issue lol

And lay off the coffee grounds.
I don't think you're supposed to apply the grounds directly to the soil without brewing them (not using through the drip)

They are used coffee grounds from Starbucks lol n next time I'm look to make a tea type water mixture but should I water the. Good once with some around 6 ph wArer or let dry then start them with some lower ph water

Coffee grounds are an excellent additive in limited amounts to compost heaps. Direct application invites mold. Trust me. From experience. You can only go so organic.
