No pictures but I have nitrogen toxicity, I have two hso blue dreams @ day 32 one has bud starting to get thick and one has talon leaf and really small buds. I flushed the shit out of it and fed with lower ppm I'm using house and garden in coco with cali magic.

Will plants recover from nitrogen toxicity or should I scrap it and start over?

You flushed and then fed them? Kinda defeats the purpose...I would flush, allow the plant some time to recover and THEN feed them

When you're "flushing", it's really just leaching salts from the soil. The plan still retains everything it's already absorbed. So, when you feed it again you're just adding AGAIN to the toxicity problem. In my experience, toxicity really increased the time it took to finish, not really affecting my yield.

So flush with ph water only and it should go ahead and fill out and put on weight eventually?

More than likely. It will definitely increase flowering time, mine was about 3 weeks longer.

Yea, the toxicity has cause your plant to stall, once you alleviate the toxicity, your plant will need some additional flowering time to catch up. So yea, flush flush flush, lots and lots of runoff and then let it sit at least until the substrate is dry again and not just on top, maybe a week. THEN you can start feeding again, maybe like 1/4 strength to start and then slowly work your way up with each subsequent feeding. What size pots are you growing in?
