Can anyone help me out & tell me what this is!!!
thats PH spotting, your in lockout
complete a soil runoff PH test.......
with PH corrected water (6.5-6.8PH ) pour enough water in the pots so the water runs out the bottom of the pot ...collect & test the PH of this runoff water....
If the PH reading is out of optimum range 6.5-6.8 PH, you need to flush your plant.
Flush with PH corrected water, till in optimum PH range, 3 times the volume of the pots rule of thumb but may require much more flushing if the rootball is thick & sour
EG: 1 gal pot = 3 gal. flush
add 1/2 strength nutes to the last gallon of the flush.
Hey Ganja its Suspsectelite now, aka, Suspect from GrassCity
I kinda figured I was still havin ph problems, these are different plants then the ones you helped me with last time...and the leaves are only like that on a couple of my plants, like 4/150 so how severe do you think I am?
and if you had to guess, would you say its too high or too low?
Specifically, it appears that K is locked out pretty seriously. Flush n feed. That needs to be dealt with NOW since K gives the plant its immune strength.
I actually wondered if that was you , great to see a buddy:smokin:
jump on that ASAP as stinkattic posted its serious
depending on how off the PH is this may just be the beginning of other nutes getting locked out aswell
deal with it the same as the last lot....you know what to do
thanx, but Ill tell ya, Im not real excited about another big flush.......guess I have no choice though, eh?
fraid not, do your runoff test it will tell the story
will do, im gonna grab 5-6 4x4 tables to put under my plants so when I water them I can allow for lots of runoff during each watering. do you think this will help with my ph problems?
Also would it be wise to water with just ph corrected water every 3rd time or so?
I recomend PH correcting everyting that goes in the pots every time
my water's PH is like a yo yo, I must
I do ph everything, but I have to get 6 4x4 tables so that I can start drenching my plants every time i water to produce lots of runoff so that testing and maintenance is alot easier and productive!
any update friend... i had a similar problem with my last soil grow
yea, it was the fretilizer that I was using coupled with extremely low PH. plants look great now.
peace
explain the fert situation.
and congrats, of course
well throughout my first grow, I used Supernatural Brand Bloom Terra for the first 3 weeks then switched to Monster Bloom by Grotek, with amazing results. then I switched to some liquid ferts, DNF Bloom for this grow & it gave me P & K deficiencies due to low ph. its supposedly great food but more geared towards hydroponics I guess.
Ive since switched back to the Monster Bloom & everything is fine again!
are you having similar issues???
