Here is a condensed version of my situation. I just started using GH flora micro and flora bloom (I'm following Rez's recipe) and am brand new to synthetic nutes, I have always grown organically. Well, these AK47 clones (actually more of small vegging plants now) are about 5 weeks old and have been watering them with 3 ml flora micro and 4.5 ml of flora bloom ph'd at 6.0. I have watered them when needed, about every 4-5 days or so. I am using a peat based soiless mix with perlite and dolomite lime added. My question is, did I burn these plants or is this a deficiency and need to up my feeding. I have been feeding at the rate stated above, but the recipe calls for 6 ml flora micro, and 9 ml flora bloom every watering once clones mature into vegging plants. Last night after I took these pics I started the full vegging feeding on a few that needed it so we'll see what happens, but I figured I ask here to get a more precise answer. I wasn't sure if I needed to flush. Some of them probably could use a bigger pot now, but I am waiting another week to do so because I have no room in veg room right now. Here are some pics of a few of the different plants. Thanks for the help! pics below
