Once a plants foilage has been burn then there realy is not that much that can be done to save the realy burnt leaves any that are border line burnt then i would cut back to any greenage and bin the burnt stuff.If the plant is burnt and the problem is not caused through the grow room temps then the nutreints that you are feeding are far too strong so cut back the strenth.The other way a plant can get real bad burns is through clumsy watering take care not to spill any on the leaves this will result in burnt leaves for sure unless you are useing a organic feen but this can still cause buring........................................tyke..............................................................

In a flush situation many prefer to use just straight tap water yes...

If you have enough water laying around then use some that's been left out as this will help ensure some of the micro-life survive after the flush. Most people though, flushing is an emergency. need to flush out those salts fast or as you've seen plants can die pretty quickly.

some strains of cannabis will have a higher salinity tolerance than others... a basic rule of thumb is that if a strain isn't very drought tolerant then it will not be very salt tolerant either. Drought tolerance also has nothing to do with how much a plant drinks. Cannabis does have a relatively high salinity threshold in my opinion... somewhere possibly around 6-8EC, with some strains hitting 6 and others 8.

O ic straight water huh, but Just to be sure distilled h20. Well one is
coming back all leafs are now nice green. Other two are still fried. Put less than a gal to water with some vermitea. What to do next? Feed or water? Feed botanicare bloom or micronutes?such as alaskan bloom. Or just go with jacks clasic?

keep watering. make sure those salts are gone.

when you do feed, take it easy. you've broken the salinity tolerance of the plant and it won't be able to take as much.

Sounds like your res water went stagnant. Do you have any microdifuser or airestones in your res?? If not, you will cause the water to go stagnant and if you feed your plants from it, they will die. You have no O2 in the water so you will get a nice swamp bog of methane going on... Smells like ass and kills everything.... No bueno....
