if a plant shows that she need more nute for xample N or P or K or all of em..
what to do? should i give her nute until she show that shes gonna be better or should i just
giv her higher dose of nute? i do lik this nute,water,water,nute.. should i stay that or just mix a higher consentration of nute or should i go nute untill shes better?

If you know what it is lacking, try and only add that one nutrient with some water.
You'll want to be sure your plant isn't nute burned though and it is going to only make it worse.

hahah! my english is fucked up, am from sweden.. i have no problem right now it was just a question how to make the ladies better?
my last grow, 4 of the ladies started to show clearly that she wanted more N started to give here stronger concentration of nutrient
and she got burned.. and i have to flush em and start over and same shit again and again she never went green again, only more yellow the longer she lived.. i grow in Gold label medium with gold label nute A&B MG and PK.. so what should i do? use stronger consentration for example soil A if that has more N then soil b?
hope you understand..

Depending on were the yellowing occurred, usually new growth, it would be nitrogen deficiency. I would google a simple way to get nitrogen to your babies or wait for a reply.

Might be your water. To much chlorine in your water will yellow leaves and look like a nut def. Try to use RO water

I can see a burnt plant coming here, DONT use more than it says on the instructions ! If thats what your already doing then the ph is wrong.

That depends on how wet your soil is,if its really wet then wait a day,if its already getting close to dry then water/feed.OR just do like me and get a mister/spray bottle
and nutes 1/2 strength per gallon mist it NOT SPRAY but MIST stand away and never by the light,even if you have to moved plants from an area.but thats just me

Ok so we need to know a few things. What stage of growth are you in right now? Veg or flower? In veg, you will need more N than P or K. They might benefit from P or K but that wouldnt be the first place i would start. Im going to assume your in veg. If your in veg and you are feeding a good N nutrient, and your following the instructions and not overfeeding then you have another problem. Your problem may be a N deficiency but theres a 90% chance its probably not from a lack of feeding.. What happens is, if your Ph is out of whack, that is, its not in the accepted range nutrient uptake is reduced or comes to a halt. Its called nutrient lockout. (im assuming your growing in soil) it should be between 6.2-7.0 that is ideal, 5.8-8.0 is tolerable. You could also have excess salt buildup from old fertilizer in the soil that hasnt been used.

My suggestions are, flush the soil with fresh water, put 3x the volume of your growing pot in and flush out the soil. After that, give it a little time and test the ph. You can use dolomite and sulfur to raise/lower the ph of soil. You can find this info on here do a search.

If you do that and you honestly think its a deficiency, get some better nutrients and test different things on different plants. dont up the dose by 2x and feed all your plants..do it to maybe one and see if she gets better.

Again, im giving you info based on what you have told us, which is not much. More info= more responses= you fix your shit and get back in business.

And remember.. DONT DO WHAT EVERYONE THINKS YOUR GONNA DO MAAAAN and FREAKOUT

Did you flush the soil? I ask because thats important to do. I'm not familiar with your nutrients, but are you following the directions precisely? Your ph looks good, but that can be deceiving. Is your ph meter a good one? Is it calibrated? To avoid waiting for you response, ill just tell you what i would do. I am not an experienced grower, and i don't claim to be. Im sharing what i know and have learned. If your following the nutrient directions spot on, i would say after you have flushed, DO NOT FEED them for a week or maybe 2, see how they react then do 1/4 strength nutrient feeding. If they are doing better after the flush, and the 1/4 strength nute mix, then do 1/2. You need to experiment with what works for you. I would say the plants your flowering will yield less due to these issues happening in flower, but you may be able to get them back on the right track. As for the plants in veg, do not flower them until they are healthy again. Your plants will tell you what they need.. to me they are saying im being overfed and burnt to a fucking crisp.

Your plants will only uptake nutrients within a certain ph range. Lets say that you are growing in soil. If you allow your ph to fall below 6, then you limit the ability of the nutrient "N" to ionize and be taken by your plant. This in turn may cause chlorosis, yellowing of the leaf. In order for your plant to achieve a robust life cycle, you must pay attention to your nutrient ph, especially in the plants formative months, 1-2. Each nutrient, and micro-nutrient has an optimum ph at which it will ionize and they are all different. There are many nutrient charts on the Googlenet, print a few out an tape them up where you feed your plants. Good luck bro, and If I can be of any help, pm me.
