Unhappy autos

Here are my zkittles autos week 8 from sprout, things were going fine until I added bat guano on top of my feed mixture they have gone south fast over about 5 days I have just flushed the worst 2 but they are looking even worse. My medium is canna terra professional my ph inflow is 5.8 to 6.2 my ec has been calmag 0.4 canna florez 0.8 and the guano 0.2 roughly. I flushed the ec down to 0.5 and ph run off is 6.1 as I have just flushed will things get worse before they get better or are they fucked? Expert assessment needed that ks in advance

For me this is a case of nutrient lock out because you gave them the wrong ratio of fertilizers, it's not a PH problem it's just too much phosphorus causing the lock out, check "nutrient imbalance in plants" on Google, the correct ratio of nutrients is key to leaves and ultimately flower development, if you deprive your plants of Nitrogen, Phosphorus, etc your outcome will be crappy.

In addition your problem started with the lock out of micronutrients because the yellowing and the damage it's being done in the new output, then you flushed and your plants got worse because now they are being deprived of Nitrogen and phosphorus as we can see in your pictures.

The chemical properties in the rhizosphere are wacked out due to improper management, incorrect nutrient NPK ratio, flushing depriving Nitrogen, etc.

My recommendation is that you end this grow as you can (your plants are helpless) and start a fresh new grow using the correct growing techniques.

Thanks for your assessment another steep learning curve which shall be avoided in the future
 
I don't think it's a total loss. I'm also new to growing had some plants do this. I rode it out and they made it. Ugly but made it lol.

I feel your pain bro my northern lights auto took a turn for the worse got the same feed as my other auto she just didn't take to it waiting for her to finish this month I think Im gonna stick to organicsIMG_20240628_085829.jpg IMG_20240706_130239.jpgIMG_20240702_135846.jpgIMG_20240628_085836.jpg
 
We live and we learn I guess, 2 out of the five are ok, they r the ones I didn't feed the guano, so I'm glad I know where I went wrong. Your northern lights doesn't look that bad I grew 6 northern light auto on my last run from green house seeds and they did really well just shy of a pound and they went over 14 weeks to finish. And the smoke was epic, I'll be getting more nl in the future would love to hrow and clone some fem nl. Good luck with your grow!
