Plant looks unhappy and is drooping - Nitrogen toxicity?

[LoveGreen]

Hi guys,

I am back with another question and hope that it's answered this time too. I thank you all for helping newbies like me. So, here, I have a bagseed that's incredible to smoke, but I don't know the name. She grew well (loads of pics attached) but I see drooping leaves now.

I use a 100% organic soiless mix that contains amino acids, humus, fulvic acid etc. I don't have to add anything as the fertilizers are all organic and helps the plant grow. I have 6 other plants growing in the same mix and I have to say that I am very impressed with the soil. I haven't bothered much about the pH, but it's about 6 to 6.5. Now, I see the leaves drooping a bit and I also see the leaves clawing as you can see (or maybe it's just drooping?)

I want to know if this is nitrogen toxicity and if I should flush it. Flushing won't make a mess of the plant like other soil mixes that release slow fertilizers, so I am good there. The leaves at the top show good growth but I am worried because I might mess this up.

Please help and tell me what to do!

Thanks a ton!

PS: The pics are from Day 1 to Day 19 (Just to show the progress). Sorry if the post looks kinda dumb... I hope I didn't mess it up with the pics

I would agree with the N toxicity statement. very dark green and clawing at the tips....

So should I let it be or flush it? Asking cuz the new growth looks fine. Apart from that, do you think the plant is healthy?

Just let it go, if it starts to get worse then flush it, or if you start getting little rust spots it could be locking out calcium. It looks healthy other wise.. I am not a soil guy though, so maybe someone else will chime in.

Thanks for trying to help go4snypr. Reps for you!

Since it's coco, I think I should take care of the ph. I'll just stick to 5.8 or so henceforth

I must have misread. Thought you were in an organic soil, not soil less.. Adjust your ph for sure. I still wouldn't change anything else yet. If the new growth starts going dark green and clawing then flush it out, or like i say, N toxicity will lock out calcium as well so keep an eye on that.

Is there a reason why you would not want to run your pH around 6.5? It is organic after all. I run coco/perlite with organics and hydro and the organics seem to do a bit better around 6.5 where the hydro likes it more at 6 or a little under.

EDIT: woah, sorry for all the spelling mistakes in that. I hope I found all of them lol.

I have also added a seaweed fertilizer that contains micro and macro nutrients, albeit in small quantities. So, yes, that might have added to the toxicity too. I will first adjust the pH and report back to you both here
