Hey everyone, quick question.

2 600 viparspectras.. got 4 girls under em. Exactly 1 month into flower from 12/12 flip.

I am in FFOF in 5 gal fabric pots
They are up to full strenght nutes, the fox farm trio and now I'm using beastie blooms as well.

Noticed some tips frying a bit.

Any idea what I should dial back to avoid this problem from happening? Maybe just cut all the nutes back a tsp? Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Here are the ladies to show you what is happening.

Other than the few tips they are looking and smelling quite delicious.

Back it down.... most of us overfeed em... remember nutes are not their food the light is... nutes are like vitamins, essential but if you ate 1/2 bottle of multi vitamins a day you would be no more healthy than taking just one, maybe less.

You have not done anything most dont... i feel you could back off but what youve done is not going to be detrimental at all

Definitely don't increase. When I'm increasing nutes and see that, I either decrease or keep it the same until I see the plant change a little. It depends on the plant. All in all looking pretty good.

Yeah well I'm at the max of what fox farms recommends. Definitely don't plan on increasing...

Also. I've yet to flush my soil. I go back and forth with the idea... Plants look good... I don't see any salts on my fabric pots... Always water to runoff.. Anyone want to chime in?

Give em a good straight watering or two. There is no other plant, even heavy feeders like tomatoes, that we fertilize every water. Theres no way any girl can drain the medium of all nutes in a week, especially after weeks and weeks of being fed every water. Let her use what youve paid for and is just hanging in the mefium...

Unless i have probs i dont do a heavy multiple times the container size amount of water type flushes... just give em some plain water from time to time to let em eat some of the extra we all have just hanging out..

Yeah I've been on the feed water feed water route.. My pots take 3-4 days to dry out... I'll give em straight ro water with Cal mag for a week or so and see how they do.

I guess I was more curious about what bloom nutes I could cut back on while still continuing the beastie bloomz.. Since I'd suspect that would be the culprit of the burn... Those ratios are hot AF.
