Hi All,
One of my plants is going through hell right now and is severely wilted. I think I gave it whiplash by overreacting to previous problems. Originally it had a nutrient excess, which i flushed out after transplanting to a bigger container. then the bottom leaves turned yellow a couple days later and so gave it some blood meal tea (and the leftover grinds). I got home tonight after the blood meal application and it was wilted as all hell.
The pH is OK, about 7 +/- .2 depending on where i stick the probes into the soil. It is living in an organic soil with compost and some organic fert (this is the mix that i flushed as mentioned above). I am afraid that i gave it too much nitrogen from the blood meal and it can't take up water. But the soil is already quite moist (probably not enough aggregate in there), so i'm worried that flushing it again will cause more problems. Any advice?
