"Incest flass" had me in giggles! They are overfed. Use half of what you've used next time. I would just ride this one out, you can't remove much at this point.

I don't think there's anything wrong with the plant food, just the concentration and/or application rate.

Cheers!

P toxicity. Upper leaves turn necrotic (dead) from the tip to the base of the leaf.

Damage is done best cause of action is water from here on out.

I personally have no idea how easy it is to flush dry amendments tho

Flushing out dry ammendment is like beating a dead horse that comes back to life, just to die again. Water only till harvest, it can be re-used but add low charge soil like happy frog or the like.

I was doing it every 10 days
That sounds too frequent to me, but I guess that's what the Green Gro directions tell you to do. That's for when the Green Gro is used by itself, though. By adding in the insect frass you're almost doubling the NPK inputs, hence the soil ends up being too hot.

Lesson learned for next time; for this grow I think the best you can do is give plain water til the end as suggested above. You're not gonna be able to flush the nutrients out of the soil without throwing things off even more.

Good luck!

Thanks, 3rd grow, I didn’t factor in the insect frass I gave the ladies too much love, lesson learned. Hopefully I can cross the finish line with plain water only. Buds are solid and sticky
