Nutrient Burn? Remedies?

Is there any hope for this plant?  It is a feminized White Widow in 12th week of flowering. I think it has nutrient burn.  The trichomes are starting to turn white.  What should I do besides just flush it with water?

      • Well that all depends, if its a soil grow its probably nute  burn, if its hydro I agree with RbtAsq and it could be nute burn. Flushing is your only option at this point, and I would trim the  burnt tips off to make sure  it stops by flushing. 

        Next grow do some research and ask on here so you dont do that again,

        • definite nute burn +2

          retrace your steps. did you add something twice and not realize it? you pretty much cant fix it but id give it nothing but distilled or RO water. maybe you can use it for hash or edibles

          • Good point, the best way to treat a problem is not to have it next time

          • Thanks for the confirmation.  This is my first grow.  I planted 2 seeds from the same order in soil.  Both plants were treated the same way, but this one got burned.  Guess I better use much less nutrients than  recommended next grow.

            • I am a hydro grower doing an outside grow this summer so I may be full of crap but I dont think soil grows need as much nutrients as hydro and I think soil can have hot spots if its not mixed really well. What kind of media did you use.

              • It is in Happy Frog Potting Soil and been fed Fox Farm nutrients every other week according to instructions. The other plant looks fine.

                • Frequency has less  to do with it than quantity, if you over feed once the damage is started. There seem to be several reasons  one plant out of 3 or 100 will look bad, its the same reason I am handsome and my brother is not I suppose or maybe FF didnt mix it well enough that day. What is the PH your running at, maybe the others had a little nute lock so they held back a little. Another good argument for hydro and clones, theres no dark corners for genes or nutrients to hide.

                  • I would trim it up and let it finish, The dead on the leaves wont heal but the buds look like they are fine.

                    • i think it will continue to burn but i would let it finish also. see what you end up with. Use this plant as a learing tool!!

                      ive always heard foxfarm nutrients are very concentrated

                      • The guys got you covered . This is a example of what following the manufactures recommendations can do sometimes. Next grow, go at half rate and see where you are before going full rate. WW is not a heavy feeder either.

                        • I don’t feel like writing a book so I will offer a little advice, flush like the rest have said just drop the ph below 6.0, a lower ph helps nutrients leach through the medium and you could also use yucca extract to help with the leaching as well.
