What is the difference between nutrients and vitamins?!
To me, they are all the same thing.

Vitamin: Any of various relatively complex organic substances that occur naturally in plant and animal tissue and are essential in small amounts for the control of metabolic processes.
   American Heritage Dictionary

Nutrient: any substance that provides essential nourishment for the maintenance of life.
  Oxford Dictionary

In a nutshell:
Nutrient = Food
Vitamine = allows the organism to use the food more efficiently.

The plant isnt well, and it will have to cope with the fertilizer asswell.
Lots of people kill their plants because they look unwell, because they give them fertilizer, then their plants die.
Pings appreciate a bit of fertilizer. If I had a poorly Ping I would give it a dilute foliar feed. If a plant is unwell, that is the time they need it MOST!
