Hey guys and gals. I have a pretty bad nute burn problem.. bare with me for being a complete noob to this. I got a few cheese clones and im using coco as a grow medium. while mixing the coco i used a gallon of water with too much "earth juice-catalyst" and "earth juice-micro" mixed in and gave the plants i transplanted horrible nute burn it looks like.. not sure what else is going on here. but just wondering if i should transplant them into a new nute free coco to recover or just continue to flush every few days. just the two the third was transplanted earlier and is doing pretty good. any help is appreciated, please only helpful comments, i realize im no pro haha.:roll:

You need to ph the water before using it especialy if your adding nutes cuz they will generally lower the ph to a lock out state and it only takes one or two waterings to show the affects. go to your grow store and get some test strips or a meter and get the watering solution up to 6.0 before watering with it. happy farming

ok looks like im takin a trip to the hyro store tomorrow.. what do you suggest i do with the plants i have?
transplanting them into new coco with really hurt the roots that have grown through it in the past week. in my haste i just did that with one of them.. the other im leaving alone until i can get some more answers.
just check the ph of what they are in and use the ph up/down accordingly in the coco they are in?

i really appreciate this guys!:peace:

leave them in there pots and just correct the p.h and they will take off again really soon. you should only use ferts as directed on the bottle and only every third watering unless they show def. sighns. makse sure you are adding cal-mag every watering with the coco grow as it does not have any in it. happy farming
