(Due to an technical problem, I cannot connect anymore to my account Gaias_Gift, which is not gonna be updated anymore... This is a "saving" of my journal, which was at week 7 when I encountered this issue. This grow was started on September, 10th, 2020.) Started my first grow ever of cannabis. I chose an autoflower for obvious easy cultivation reason. I plan to use LST when she is big enough and I hope to maintain a low structure due to a lack of height. I've also planned to use some pretty simple organic liquid nutes and no complicated mix, so I do not hope to get a big record on this grow, but since it's my first one ever, I'm pretty excited about any result I can get. I started the germination directly in humid soil, without any "glass of water" or "paper towel" technique. The seed promptly germinated (it came out of the ground after more or less 72 hours). I put it in a small grow tent (40x40 cm) under a 30w blurple grow bulb to begin with (I had it for other plants and decided to use it at first to avoid using useless quantities of electricity). I upgraded the light at the end of week 1 to a 60w white full-spectrum quantum board. The conditions were globally pretty harsh for the first week. We got a heat wave where I live and it got really challenging to maintain a decent temp and RH. Some days were really hot in the tent and the strong ventilation I put in order to refresh it got the air pretty dry, with somme RH under 35% some days. But I watched carefully enough to maintain the plant in good health (especially using half a plastic bottle over the seedling for the first days in order to maintain humidity). Even under theses conditions, at the end of week 1, she is already pretty big, with already two big leaves and a top developing well and rapidly, so I guess this variety can really grow up fast under perfect conditions.

Hi! I started week 4 of flower with a PK excess (nute burn) so I flushed the medium. I started the nutes the following watering cause I saw some PK deficiency appearing. But now, my plant shows signs of both nute burns AND Phosphorus deficiency. What should I do? flush? feed? thx

First thing i would check for is root rot. That can cause nute lockout. If no root rot. Check PH level as that can cause nute lockout and other symptoms. If PH is good at runoff, maybe build up of bad fungus or microbes in the soil where Mycorrhizal fungus helps as well as good old fashioned earthworms. Plant disease can be a culprit as well. Some plant diseases mimic nute deficiencies. I had the same problem during preflower on 1st grow. Found out it wasnt draining well enough and mild root rot formed. Made a few more holes in bucket and flushed the soil til i had at least an inch of runoff so soil was neutral again. After about a week and a half the plant slowly recovered and continued the flowering stage. Flushing most times than not helps with any nute lockout. I would remove any leaves that are half dead. They are only hurting your plant by using valuable nutes that could go to good leaves and bud sites. Unless it will lead to over defoliating. It is wise to note that this stress may affect overall taste size yield and flavor of flower. Happy growing and I hope the issue is resolved with your ladies soon.

@Gift_from_Nature, I'm a novice grower myself thoe I had to research the hell outta what it was also some expert advice and was told not to water again , some damage cause but there straight back at it growing again about 72 plus hours after they intial recovery I've been giving nutes but only PK and the three plants starting from the one coming down on Saturday they are all on the same path as the buds fatten there consuming themselves and the last girl is still pulling alone thoe at the rate she might be the biggest girl in the candy lot

@Igrowneil, Thx a lot for your advice. Actually my plant is starting to be doing a little better this week. The buds are fattening and some trichomes are forming. Some sugar leaves are starting to be really frosty. But I think I stunt her quite a lot actually... My inexperience made me panic a bit and what I thought was some nute burn appearing as the same time as P deficiency was actually more probably some K deficiency (it can take the form of a burnt tip but with some yellowing of the leaves). That would explain why the leaves were so pale: the plant was flushing. So the instant the soil is dry enough I'm gonna feed her again. Anyway, sorry for the novel out of my problems... Thx again for the support! Much appreciated!👌
