Def. Pics need diagnosis

[Whobdobub]

Okay i started off feeding well water from a softner that had sodium pellets 400 ppm.

Flushed Like Crazy 2 days later i gave a weak solution of maxicrop seaweed couple of drops of super thrive and a weak solution of advanced nutrients.
very weak like 1/4 strength.
The water i used is store bought 10 - 30ppm.

So last night 4 days later i fed them again with a half strength solution and added some epsom salt.




























The Ph has been between 6.3 and 6.5 for both watering after the Flush.

Now im just confused trying to diagnose cause it just looks like it could be alot of different problems.

Would appreciate any help to adjust and get these cleared up thanks.



Okay I have updtaed the pictures hopefully you can see them now

i'd think its gotta be related to the seaweed (N). I think you should hold off on the nutes for now and flush the shit out of it and cut off the damaged leaves. Some strains can take major doses of nutes, others will buckle at the sight of it.

Oh that's just nute burn.

All that's happening is that the plant is getting too much nutes.

Cut off the parts that have been burned, and then focus on the new top growth. Cut the nute solution even further down.

When you look at the new top growth, you want to see it lime green and then have the leaves darken a bit more and become 'straight', not bending folding down or dark green. Once you've done that slowely work your way up in the nute dept when the leaves look like they can go a bit more dark green add some more nutes.. after a couple weeks, flush again and start over from where you left off. Keep an eye on the new leaf growth at the top and the color of the new developing fan leaves.

All those symptoms are prior to the seaweed 1/4 strength nute mix.
The flush was about 5 gallons of water per plant maybe 8 gallons of water per plant!
Over a course of about an hour.
Im pretty sure i flushed the hell out of them.

The symptoms have progressed after the flush occurred.
The Tops and all the new growth seem perky.
The progression could have been a follow through of the damage already done.

Im only feeding them Store bought water, and the nutes will half strength untill they recover.

The only thing is im not sure if i should be upping the ferts to get them back on track.
Because of the lack and possible lock out nutes during the sodium water episode.

So i am hoping some can help me out and possibly say " yes that is a Mag problem or yes that's definitely a Fe, Iron, Zinc problem ... or some type of diagnosis from someone who has dealt with various symptoms first hand.

Thanks
Take care

i cant remember exactly what it was that i read the other day but it said something about epsom salts just being a myth and they dont help???? not sure. like another said just flush it trim the damage and lower the dose of nutes.

I'd agree that the salts don't help much. When a plants been burned, it's better to just focus on the new growth at the tops and monitor that after a flush.

Nutes should be viewed as a poison or enemy that can burn your plants so use them carefully, start low, always focusing on the colour of the new growth at the tops and slightly bump up. Do not listen to standard feeding schedules on bottles or faqs because every strain wants something different. Even pheno's. Keep the plants 'wanting more', not getting too much. Getting perfection isn't realistic for most growers unless they are growing the same clones over and over again so people shouldn't feel bad about deficiences. The trick is monitoring the lower leaves, and new growth.. especially when changing nutes or ph.
