The girl that got burned just stopped getting worse (i think) after a second flush. Not looking too good though...
And now the only one that was fine is paling, and leafs are dieing off. I fed yesterday (1/16 dose maxigrow+1/8 dose maxibloom) so we will see if its a defficiency..

I'm a noob but from what I have read on many different grow logs is that the fan leaves are the plants source of food. When flowering it uses the food in the leaves and then the leaf dies off. I Have also read that using a little bit of veg nutes keeps the leaves from dieing/yellowing as much and falling off. The veg nuts also make your plants smell stronger.

After you flush you want to give your plants a normal feeding. I don't know why you fed an 1/8 then a 1/5. Your plants are getting worse because you are not feeding them enough. I stand behind what I've been saying this whole time. I believe your plants have been underfed this whole time.

Well a lot of people said to give a minimal feeding after, and slowly increase the dose.
However, you have helped me out on a whole bunch of , so I will deff listen this time. I will feed my sickest girl w/ a full teaspoon of maxibloom next watering. Or would you recomend 50/50 maxigrow/maxibloom? I hope youre right.
Phrostbyte - thanks lots for trying to help, dont stop. But if you read the whole thread you will see that I have 3 different problems and 3 different yellowing patterns.

I have never used maxigrow or bloom. That being said, feed it the recommended general purpose dosage found on the packaging.

If you were flushing due to a toxic salt build up that would be fine. If you flush an underfed plant or a underfed plant with pH issues, the plant post flush will continue to get worse. I think you have both issues happening here.
I would not pH my water to 7 if it is starting with a 6.5 pH. 6.5 is right where you want to be. You are making it harder for your plants to get certain nutes and adding unneeded salts to the soil.
What type of water are you using. If you use distilled or RO water it will increase the chances of a magnesium def. I like to give a tsp of Epsom salt half way through flowering. I not saying you should do that at this point. We don't know what the deficiency even is. It is most likely more than one.

Well maxigrow is for veg; bloom for flower. Just wondering if I should mix to fix all possible deff. or use flower nutes, and isolate some variables. Ether way, lights go on in an hour, and thats when ill water. Ill go w/ maxibloom only unless someone wants to correct me.
And I water w/ poland spring which is 6.4-6.7. I only ph up if its below 6.5, as far as I can tell(i use drops)

You should add some N after a flush I would go 75/25 Bloom/Veg. That's just my opinion.
