Week of July 28-August 3 Aug 2 What the what??!? All the leaves overnight seemed to yellow! added Epsom salts to soil the other day as I thought I read it helps nute/root lockout. Recap in question below Aug 1 Transplanted into 3 gallon fabric pot. Maybe a little too early but it kept on falling over so i transplanted it deeper so the stem was stabilized. It does not seem to be growing as fast as it once did. I think I stunted it. Im moving the pot around a lot (on a breathable riser/elevator) outside and back in as I had a mold scare in the flowering tent. Tent is now clean and im rotating plants in and out of the tent - flowering plants in the tent for 12 hours then moved to a dark area, move this plant and the other sour diesel into the tent for the other 12 hours. Not ideal but not sure what to do I’ve

Hey again Vic. You can rule out overwatering because the first sign would be droopy leaves. And as far as misting plants I avoid it like the plague! Lol I just don't think it is worth the risks of issues that can come along with it. If you do then never do it with the lights on because the droplets can magnify the light and burn/ bleach the plants. Finally the only benefit of Epsom salt is the magnesium but salt is pretty much the biggest enemy your roots have to begin with when using chemical fertilizers. Most all the nutrients come in salt form. Too much salt locks out nutrients to the roots. That is what is going on here the nitrogen deficiency you are seeing is from lockout because you are giving her plenty of nitrogen. I would flush her out with plain pH water and then place a fan towards the pot do it will dry out faster and you don't end up with overwatering issues. I would give plain water the next few feedings and hopefully she will pull out of it. Depending on how much salt is in there it might be hard to recover unfortunately. Sorry for the bad news but hopefully it gets you headed in the right direction. Good luck
