Ahh I see, now I get ya.... well it has to be nutrients that were built up in the soil that the plants did not use; how big were the plants in the mixture before you harvested?

They weren't very big. Tallest ones were probably 45-50 cm, but I also had some small ones - 30-40 cm. I mostly used the soil from the smaller plants thinking it wasn't so spent... I guess I was right:p

Anyway I still don't see the problem getting any worse, and the plants are still putting out a new node every 2-3 days. Growing can only be a good thing right? ;p At least if the soil is hot they'll use up some of those nutesæ.
I think I'll probably flower them soon. I'm excited to see how much they'll stretch compared to my last round when I flowered from newly rooted clones after only a few days veg.

Thanks for your help, I'll probably get back on this forum if I have issues in flower - and I probably will.

Ya, if it's not spreading you don't got to worry about it; so don't flush. Flushing is only last resort.

No worries everyone will still be here to help ya out if ya need something :)

Update - it's still not getting worse and the plants are still growing. Just wondering now when would be the best time to switch to 12/12.


Thanks for helping me out. I might have done horrible things to my plants if I hadn't realized it was nute burn;p

Well, you can wait up to 5 days max before switching; let them completely recover; that way you can let the plants hit there full burst stretch without anything holding them back; like if you want you can go ahead within the next few days...... but since they got mildly stressed from the mixture you want to give them time to recover; you can do it within the next few days; but if you want them to fully recover you should wait about 5 more days.

Thanks I'm listening to you.
They're still getting better and growing, and I want to take some more clones too before I make the switch. I was too lazy to clone today and I'll probably be busy tomorrow so it might also hit 6 days;p

Well I decided to switch to 12/12 now - they just entered their first long night.
You can see my current growthread in my signature.

Pic of the example plant:


The whole room - do you think I switched too soon? I'm thinking it should fill out pretty good in the stretch.

Na, I don't think you switched too soon; they just recovered nicely; so they should be all good for flowering :yes:

Hey black, where did you get your avatar from; lol everytime I look at it; the tongue is just hilarious lol

That's from the horror film "Wolf Creek" - it's worth a watch if you like a nervewrecking thriller - it really is a very brutal film to watch.
It's the murderer Mick Taylor, played by John Jarrat.
