Thanks for the compliments  Ok, well looks like we all agree on the problem here lol. I'll break out the PPM meter and fuck around and see if I can come up with something that will keep me under 1000, but still use all the ferts I want to use
First two pics are two separate leaves, these are probably the most heavily damaged. I see some others that look to be heading in that direction as well, but I think I'll be able to save them somewhat. Figured while I was snapping some damage pics I'd take a couple more of the girls and get some close up bud shots.

Besides the couple of burn leaves, the girls are looking good. Im sure if you do what was said above they'll continue to do just fine. Good luck and I hope the prob goes away.

Thanks, I do too, I'm pretty sure it will. I am flushing tonight and switching to an every other day watering cycle. This particular strain seems to be pretty thirsty, maybe it's just the height, but the buckets are light after a night. So I think two waterings with some clearex and then another modification of my feeding strength and I should be back on track with just a few scarred fans to show.
Shouldn't be a major issue, but I hate losing good leaves over carelessness.

Flushed tonight 15 ml Clearex to 1 gal of water. Each plant got around a 1/2 gallon, I made sure to get a nice stream coming out of the drainage hole.

Ok, I've come up with a mix that puts me right under 900 PPM with my tap water
1/2 tsp FNB
1 Tsp KoolBloom Liquid
1/4 tsp KoolBloom Dry
= 851 PPM
I was feeding between 1300-1400 PPM before so this will be a good drop in strength. The FNB is pretty strong and if it was all I used I'm sure I wouldn't have had these problems. So hopefully this mix will be a bit easier on the girls and they'll bounce back soon. The problem over took them pretty quickly and all of the plants are not looking happy right now.
I'll be feeding all plants tonight with the above solution, next two waterings will include gravity so I'll probably nix the KoolBloom and just use the 1/2 tsp of FNB.
EDIT: Plants fed, fingers crossed

Looks like I'm dealing with a P/K deficiency right now because of the N overdose. I'm wondering if I should hit them with a higher dose of the kool bloom dry and nix the liquid for a feeding or two, or just keep on the same feeding course as the last time.
I'll get some pics up of the problem later, didn't think the site was going to come back up tonight.

Fed tonight
1/2 tsp Kool Bloom Dry
1 tsp Snow Storm Ultra
Ended up right around 680 or so Figured one dose of this and back to normal feeding wouldn't hurt. I plan on snapping more pics on sunday

Day 36
Fed tonight
1/2 tsp FNB
1 tsp Kool Bloom Liquid
1/4 tsp Kool Bloom Dry
PPM's were in the 900's, maybe I went a little too heavy with the kool bloom dry. It was under 1000 and if I managed to unlock the SOB's they need the P and K anyways.
So there you have it, my grow in all it's miserable glory lol. I'm planning on tacking on at least a week to my estimated finish time, so now I'll be harvesting on 8/21 at the earliest. I should be able to salvage a somewhat decent harvest from this. As long as I can pull in a QP I'm happy, anything else is just bonus lol.
The tall girls that are on the left in my cab shots seem to have been hit the worst. The purpling on one of them is unreal lol. I like seeing purple like that but usually around day 60 or so heh.
So that's it, right at the 1/2 way point still plenty of time to bulk up the buds and get them looking prettier

It wont let me look at any of the pics in details, only thumbs, but your girls looked starved for N. What is fng and what ratio's of nutrients are you running. I would personally try to get the ppms nice and low and get a slightly higher N ratio in the mix. something along the lines of 10-12-12 at 750 ppms. I personally have great luck adding N whenever I want with Magical. It is a cal/mag suppliment with a 2-0-0 and my girls seem to love it. They are starting to perk up though so you must be heading in the right direction. Keep up the progress and Im sure you'll still have a nice yield of some frosty buds.

Excuse me that should be FNB (Flora Nova Bloom) and it's NPK is 4-8-7.
Kool Bloom Liquid 0-10-10
Kool Bloom Dry 2-45-28
I'm at the point where I'm going to be cutting the Kool Bloom liquid out and increasing the dosage of the dry. Looks like I should be set on N IMO. I didn't want to go overboard and give them high doses of food again because I figured that's counterproductive and would end me up in the same position I am now.
Don't know why my pictures won't expand. Possibly too many photos in my gallery.
EDIT: Pics should work now, must have been something funky with the upload last night.

Fed last night
1/2 tsp FNB
1/4 tsp KoolBloom dry
PPM's were right at 850. Switching to every other day watering now. I may have needed to do this sooner, but the buckets are too light now on the third day for my liking.

well besides some of the more affected leaves finally dying off, they haven't gotten any worse lol. I guess they're getting better, but nothing major really. I'll get some pics up by next weekend.

I dont know if this works with soil or hempy, but with my dwc, if O need to green them back up, a little extra N to the mix and for one or two days I make the ph swing nice and low, normal for me is between 5.8-6.1 but I make it drop to 5.1-5.2 and you can visably green your leaves back up and bring much better state of health back. I have used this method 3 times on 2 different strains with only great results. But being its hemp and that I have never grown your buds, if you decide to try this out, I would definetly recommend checking on them every hour for the first few hours and checking as often as possible to make sure you didnt piss them off more. But once youve done it a couple of times, there is generally no need to check.

Yah, I dunno what I want to do. A big part of me is saying hands off and let's see what happens, but the other is saying hit them up with more nutes. I'm hoping the more aggressive feeding schedule will help perk them up more quickly.

Fed tonight
1/4 tsp FNB
1/2 tsp KB Dry
Plants are doing as well as they can I suppose. The main colas are getting nice and fat and the rest of the buds are golfball size or larger so I can't complain too much. I'm going to ditch the tall lanky KB and keep the other for my keeper. Depending on how lucky I get with the OG18 I have just started I might cut the KB out all together.
