Yellowing that led to death on last starting on next

[Electricthom]

Well good day all, I would have to say the flush was too late or just didn't help.

I know it has not even been 24 hrs but it is worse this morning than yesterday. The other plant, (AKA Crispy taco) I flushed showed no change but I expected that. UGGGG! I have had it with the Sh*t ferts in my plants so the three clones not doing so well were transplanted. I don't think I should do that in flower but the way they look i got nothing to loose by the added stress. I cleaned off as much of the MG infected coco as I could and put them into new bottles with clean coco and gave them a drink of 1/2 strength flower level feed (1/2 tsp of each of Gro/Micro/Bloom per gallon). What I found is that the roots stopped dead(so to speak) at the layer of MG+, and the same with the two other different strain clones in the nursery. I wondered why they were growing soooo very slow, No root mass at all. The clones in GH 3 part from the start had roots filling the solo cup in one week and these roots were not much bigger than when I put them in the cup 3 weeks ago. The worst of the clones in flower had a lot of MG where the roots stopped growing. I put too much in or didn't mix it around well enough I assume, but the roots never headed for the res. My thinking is that they are def. in everything because the root mass isn't large enough to support a plant that size no matter how much I feed them. Please tell me if I'm all wet here but it sounds good in my head. I am hopeful this is the base to my problems and new Nutes plus added flushing routine will do the trick.

maybe u can post a pic of the roots? sounds like u stil have some lot problems..

It can be/become very hard and stressing trying to figureout what all went wrong.. I recoment u go find a grow guide, a good detailed one even if u dont need or understand all it's saying.. maybe u gonna do later

It is much better being on the front with things like this.. try and avoid problems from the start so u don't have to deal with them later on.. (like when the enemy shows his head from behind he's cover.. shoot him now, so u don't have to later)
every time u stress ur plant/s u have to wait for it to recover witch means longer time to harvest..

I recomment to cut all the dead leaves on ur repotted plants... u did water it u say.. now give them time to recover.. don't handle them don't water them don't do nothing.. and see if they will survive kinda last hope i think

OK will do thanks. I did not take root pics but the problem plant had a bunch of MG+ in the center and limited root growth just around the outside. The re-potted ones are small clones one week into flower so I am hopeful. I am 98% sure it was the MG+ that is screwing with me. I am going to be following the journals of 420fied and twelve/12 to give me the starting point with the better nutes I am now using, and flipping them sooner as these members do for smaller final plants more in line with the 2Ltr size pot they are in.

I'd gently re-pot in a 5gln in good soil and not use any nutes for 30 days. PH water to 6.5 or so and blast it with light from every angle. That 2 ltr pot is no good..Worked for me one time. Sad to see her die.

Hey mate, just a guess.but maybe rootbound in them containers..Would prob cause these probs..

I've been reading up and found an article about mag def. and the pictures could have been my plant. Right down to which leaves turn first. so cal/mag it is and I should be good to get real strains to grow from here

Noobie here and certainly had similar problems. First grow only yielded one plant out of six hydro/aeroponic. That one surviving plant had a root mass that almost took 1/4 of the 8 gallon reservoir. In looking at your pictures, if my root mass is typical, the pot you are growing in looks very small for good root development. Possibly repotting in a larger container free up root uptake? Just an observation, certainly no expertise here but I'm learning every day. Absolutely hate that I have drowned plants and ruined many $ worth of seeds through ignorance and incorrect diagnosis.
