Ok this was my buddies but he had to move so he gave me one of his plants - problem is he abused the hell out of it- its bag seed about week 5 or 6 flowering. I just did a flush with water at ph 6.5 and run off was coming out at high 4's low 5's in ph - what are my chances of saving this plant - many of the fan leaves were burnt off - i trimmed off most of the dead parts of the leaves. had to take quite a few off all together - any way any and all input is welcome.

also i tied some of the branches to the pot to spread them out a bit - lots of nice green leaves at the bottem

its got some nute burn but it looks like a nice plant.next water give it 2 gallons of ph 7.0 water with no nutes.then after that go back to 6.5 and bloom nutes again.did you check the ppm of your runoff ?

Looks like it had a phosphorus lockout from the low PH. I'd be a little worried about the runoff being that low, but, the newest growth looks pretty healthy so it might not be a problem. Since they'll be finished in a couple weeks, I don't think it's necessary to try to flush the PH down. I'd probably just take care of it and let it finish out. :)

Looks like magnesium def to me probably from the very low ph, just feed it a balanced flowering nute for a couple weeks with proper ph then start flushing.
