Coco Growers Flush ~ Coco coir does not hold onto a lot of extra nutrients and just a watering or two with plain water will wash most nutrients away. ... Continue to manage the pH of your water as normal – So yes the water still needs to be ph balanced. Hopefully, I answered your question and remember " Happy Growing and Free your mind one puff at a time ".

Try figuring out your soil's PH. It should be 6-7 for your lady, otherwise yes, you can start to cause lock out. That being said, it doesn't really look like thats what is going on. Usually lockout is a plant wide yellowing of the leaves. What is more likely is that it is too much nutrients and is starting to burn.

Yellow leaves from bottom upwards I have yellowing leaves from the bottom up. It resembles either N deficiency, MG deficiency or both. Growing in soil. PH is between 6.5-6.8. Feeding 1ml/L fish mix and 3ml/L bio-bloom every other watering. I tried adding cal-mag with N at 1ml/L and if anything it's got worse.

Plant seems to be dying, should I flush? And if so, any tips?Yellowing & wilting, I suspect the problem is too much silica boost .5ml every other water, combined w/ hot soil (FFOC) & a few feedings, & maybe underwatering(?) as I never have runoff, watered a cup or so every ~48hrs, when soil had dried. LST, no wild temps/hum, great airflow.

Nute Burn Plan. Lower light to 24 inches and turn on bloom switch. Flush soil with 8 litres of water (PH 6.5) per pot. Questions: will increasing the intensity of light increase plants ability to absorb nutrients, or simply stress them more? Is 8L water/ 10L pot enough to flush?
