Too late?

So I'm growing a White Russian from Serious Seeds that I misdiagnosed as being under fed. Turns out she's suffering from a horrible case of nitogen deficiency. Bud growth has all but stopped and she looks like she's on her death bed. Almost every leaf is yellow and some are clawing and getting crispy. I'm doing an all Fox Farm grow,(ocean forrest, nute trio pack and bush doctor trio pack) with bud candy, voodoo juice, molasses and super thrive. She's on day 37 of her 12/12 cycle. I want to start a heavy feeding schedule starting tommorrow to try and save her. Is this a "too little too late" scenario? I mean what buds she does have look good, so she won't be a total loss but if she can be saved I'm willing to do what it takes. I'll post pics later, she's sleeping right now. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Flush flush flush with pure water. Do not feed her for a while. Enough nutrients will be left in the soil and the plant to see you through. Jmo. cn

Why are you advising him to flush when there is no nute burn? He said its def so why would you leach nutes from the soil? Flushing will make things worse.

This arsenal of nutes you have is way too much firepower, your soil is pre-fertilized.

Ph is at 5.9 - 6.2 and the temps are between 80 - 85 degrees. Here are some pics from today.View attachment 1930824View attachment 1930823
Are you currently using molasses?. It looks like a N lockout rather than a deficiency, I ask b/c too much molasses over time will cause it...I learned the hard way. I corrected the imbalance with a balanced approach by simply feeding a 10-10-10 or equal at half strength for a few weeks.

I've only used molasses once. I'm using a modified version of fox farm's feeding schedule. It sounds like alot of nutes but they're low doses and I flush 3 times with sledgehammer during flowering. That's why my first diagnosis was nute burn. Now that I've flushed her out like crazy she's starving.

You diagnosed your own problem, you thought you overfed and did what I would have done...medium correction without transplantation. Looks like she'll be fine. Yet, I see more problems here with FF products than any others. Is it the company labeling or user errors?.

I would say both. If you follow they're schedule exactly more times than not you will burn your plants. They suggest feeding from the start and all the way through till harvest. They're soils have enough nutes to carry your plants the first 4 to 6 weeks of growth. I use light warrior foe seedlings because ocean forrest has burned some of my seedlings. You just have to find a recepie that works for you.
