Seems like we hear that all too often on this particular forum....;) As i said, my plants are dying. I think its nute burn but not a pro yet so, i need input. hope the pics are good enough... if not let me know hopefully i can more.
i use dutchmaster nutrients with h202 and thats pretty much it... im poor so i use litmus paper for pH... I think its running at about a 5 ish but thats about as close as i get for a guess. let me know if you need more info and ill get it....
5ish is way too low for a soil grow,it should be around 6.5/7.0. What is that stuff on the top of the pot? You do know that if it organic,it will probably rot and release maybe un wanted thing into the soil. Hope this helps a little. RM.
oops, forgot to mention, its a bucket hydro setup... the stuff on top is coco...
Then its a coco setup. I've never grown in coco.....I understand it has it's own set of rules to play by. And I'm not sure that 5-ish is the ph you want for a coco grow. Hopefully someone who uses coco can help you out better there. Fill out the troubleshooting form at the top of the forum for better help. Sorry I'm not more help myself but I've never touched it.....don't they make special coco nutes?
I was going ot say over watered, but you're in hydro LOL!
ph balance...
Well they don't look on death's door like birdboy's stuff does to me (yikes!) but I have a feeling the root of his problem is most likely ph lockout......coco is notorious for needing it's own ph and unfortunately I don't know what that is. It's also known for needing (or not needing.....I can't remember which) extra calcium and/or magnesium. I think that's why they make special nutes just for coco growing.
Who knows the proper ph to water in coco, can anyone help?
so does this mean you think mine are not going to make it?
