Have u seen any kind of flying bugs at all?? If not i would say u have a cal mg def creeping up i would also lower to 1.2ec and see how that goes. I mean ur feeding them 850ppm in veg i get to that in peak flower but everyone has a different approach to how hard to push plants.

Just give plant a good flush and my plants like an ec of 0.8 in veg and 1.2 in flower is just right
Tryed dropping the ec and my green leaves turned brown, not the best move lol

Haha no I didn't notice it before I upped the nutes, I created a fresh batch and up it from 1.0 to 1.7, I was following GH expert drain to waste regimen. Obviously that fail! I'll flush tonight.
yea I'll flush tonight I guess my plants are just a little sensitive! What do you guys think bout flushing with florakleen to remove salt build up?

W,
You're in coco right? One thing you can do to confirm the diagnosis is to water to runoff and check the runoff EC. It should be close to what you're putting in.
But back to your question, yes, that's usually what's recommended...or even more depending on how toxic your soil/coco is. Your problem is fairly minor. When you water, if you put in enough to get say 20% runoff each time...this nute build up will be less likely to happen in the future.

its a phos deficiency. not mg tox.
Hey hyroot, how should I go about rectifying this issue? Flush and re add nutes? As stated just above looking over the plants and it's just the first set of fan leaves. I should add that I did top them down to the best 2 node growth and removing all the stuff below it. But I only did this when I had 6 true nodes and I had an established rootball. This was done on Sunday.
I'll post pics right now

make a nutrient tea with kelp meal and crab meal and worm castings. first add molasses 3 tbsp per 5 gal of water
for 5 gal
1/4 cup crab meal
1/4 cup kelp meal
couple handfuls of worm castings
brew for 1-2 days then water.
also get a 5 gal bucket air stones , tubing and an air pump that has 2 spouts
i personally do not use guano or manure of any kind, no blood meal or bone meal or fish meal..
i recently switched to a complete vegan grow.
check this thread. it will change the way you grow everything.

I use coco though. Is this suitable for coco?

there is debate about that. May 11 does everything like this in coco. teas should work. theres a super coco (super soil) thread in the subcools organic section.
i use mostly peat since I do living organics.. microbes cant really live in coco. I've yet to try coco in this manner. I want to but just haven't yet.
sorry for the late pics here they are
