Its a soil issue I think, but the larger leaves are dying and it is also affecting my little leaves now. Should I worry about this? I have added dolomite lime to the soil after testing the run-off water. First Ph reading was 4ish so I mixed the dolomite lime. Ph was checked later and was 6ish. Leaves started to die slower. Now, leaves are getting worse. So, should I just try flushing it really good next watering?? Thats the only thing I can think of. I am in the 5th week of flowering.
flush the shit out of them looks like a salt build up clearex is a good salt leaching solution.
dhave you fed your plant since adding the dolomite lime?
Yes I have. I feed every watering.
what kinda nutes did you feed and how much when you added the dolomite lime?
I fed with Shultz zBloom Plus 10-55-10 and I used 1/4 strength nutes when I added the dolomite lime and also 1tsp of epsom salt as well.
i would flush,if you can as stated get some clearex or similiar.if you flush with water flush with a mild nute solution on your last gallon of water.as you want to flush with a 2 times the volume of water for the volume of growing medium.i would also addd some epsom salt on the last gallon.what size bucket is the plant in?a flush is always good to do any way in your grow.
i am also thinking that the ph was in the 4,s a bunch of nutrients are blocked at 5.8 and under phosphorus is one of them,so when you where feeding the plant it was un able to uptake the nutes.
that is why your leaves where dying.then you added the dolomite lime which brought the ph into the 6's and now the plant is now able to uptake nutes but you have such a build up in your soil that the plant was not able to use becouse of the ph that it is killing your plant
Flush.
I think your plants medium is changing so much it doesnt know what the f*** to do.
is it just me or are those pots really small they are in?
12 litres of good standing water through each of them, and then let them stand for a few days
they will be ok if you can get the ph to 5.5 - 6.5 stable
the stregnt sounds fine on nute
i just think you hit that baby with too much different shit at once
all those chemics
you marilyn monroed it mate !
Well I flushed yesterday with 3 gallons of water. I guess I shouldve flushed with the light nuted water last and not in the middle. Oh well.The pot is a 10" and I have added only this nute mix, and I add epsom salt every week about 1 tbsp. I will see how it is doing later today.
I think I will water next time with a light nute mix as well so the plant can absorb what is in the soil already.
how is it doing?
Yeah well I just flushed my plant again and the ph is low. I guess I will add 2 tbsp of lime per gal of soil and flush it really good again tomorrow. This sucks. I bet my buds would be huge by now if I didnt have this problem. Lesson learned and I should have fixed this in the beginning.
