is it possible that the nutrients i have been giving my plants have built up in the soil and have caused my buds to taste less than awesome? i use general hydroponics gobox per their instructions in soil in 3 gallon felt pots. the pots always get a salty looking crust on the outside towards the bottom. my thought is if i have the ph just off enough that i would not necessarily get nute burn (due to lockout) but it would just stay in the soil and wind up fouling my harvest because there is too much of everything still in the soil feeding the buds. i am trying sumpin' different this time anyway and my plants are behaving much differently. i am flooding the shit out of them every few weeks and giving them about a third to half as much as recommended. since i started that, i am getting a shit ton of foxtailing.
