Someone please help me save this!

Hello everyone, anyone, someone?

My plant is dying. Looks like nutrient pure or something. I flushed my soil three days ago and it’s only gotten much much worse. Any diagnosis and tips would be greatly appreciated. I could really use it!
Could it be a deficiency? Could I have misdiagnosed and flushing the nutes out caused this?
I’m using Rockwell super soil which is pre-amended with all kinds of things like worm castings, Bone meal, bat guano etc.
plant is yellowing and the tips are completely crispy

Extra info:
This is apparently an auto but it was stuck in ore flower for 5 weeks longer than my other autos so I flipped to 12/12 a while ago. Since the flush the burning and yellowing has gotten much worse but the buds have fattened up significantly. Temp in the tent is basically a steady 23-26C on a thermostat switch. Humidity is high 40s or so. 2 small fans circulating air and a 4” carbon filter running 24/7

Help, I have 2 plants that were in flower they were fine 2 days ago and last night. This morning I go to check on them sand they have mold !!!
I have another plant that is in flower and the buds look amazing but the leaves are looking burnt and the buds feel wet. I don’t want to lose it, what should I do with all of them?

Hey sorry to hear you are having some problems too. You should start your own thread and include some pictures. I’m a newbie but I would assume your humidity is high or your plant is very bushy and you don’t have enough airflow to keep things dry. I don’t know if you can fix mold once it’s already there other than removing the moulded parts and fixing the root of the problem. But again, I’m a newbie who clearly has his own problems so my advice may be completely wrong.

yes - return to normal nutes would be in order

I just started flushing them on Friday that’s the only changes I’ve done

Can I cut the good parts with no mold on them and dry them out/ are they salvageable?

By the sounds of it your plant is fucked. It’s going through extreme stress either way in the middle of flower.

that’s what I’m thinking. I’ll top dress with new soil and give it some nutrients and water

My guess would be root rot which is usually caused by overwatering. If possible, gently take the plant out of it's container to inspect the roots. They should be white.

If the roots look ok then I'd say it looks very hungry. What kind of food have you been feeding it?

bingo bango. Supersoil means water only. Not infinite water equals infinite growth.

I'd let them all dry out COMPLETELY and then rehydrate. Since you're using supersoil, I assume you are familiar with teas. I'd give it an EWC tea once it's completely dried out. Damage is def done, and some yield is def lost. But you can ALWAYS recover as long as there is still green leaves and there isn't a virus.... or environmental issue that can't be corrected.

I have been maintaining a good wet/dry cycle so I’m not sure it would be root rot. You may be right but the soil has been drying out between watering. I measure by feel inside, by weight picking them up and I feel the felt pot which already help the roots breath. I may look into this a little further tho. Thanks

They look very very hungry. This happens with root rot because the roots can't absorb nutrients. It could also just be from lack of food. Have you fed them anything at all or just been relying on what's already in the soil. Lots of times even with a super soil there's not enough food in there to get to harvest.

I had two others growing along with this one and one got burned earlier on in its growth because the super soil was way too hot for these autoflowers. So I was only giving them water the entire time. This one did get way bigger than the other two and vegged way longer so it makes sense that it would be sucking the nutrients from the soil at a much higher rate too. I’m leaning toward a starving plant in soil that has been sucked dry of its nutes

Yup it's common for super soil. Too hot at first but not enough to get to the finish line. You can re-amend but will take time to see results. If you have an organic based liquid nute you can give them an instant shot of nutrition. I know a few organic growers that use pure blend pro as a booster. Need to ph it though. Good news is it's fixable.
