Help with diagnosis plz

[partcleguy]

Hey, I've been having this problem in my current grow and it happened last grow as well. I'm pretty sure that its a pH lockout. Try adding hydrated lime to some water after flushing. I've read its supposed to bring the pH to around 7. I'm crossing my fingers that it will for me anyway.

can you have a look at the picure i have just posted to see if we have a similar problem?

hmm, it could be this because i don't have a meter. So im kindof scared to mess around with this.. but i will if salsbury has a metre i can pick up. the ph metres on ebay that use no batteries are peices of shit that don't even work. well, i think im gonna try watering with that fish emulsion this time, and if that doesn't work i will flush and do the lime.

also if its any type of watering problem i think it would be underwatering.. so i guess i have it narrowed down to either underwatering, ph-lockout, nute lockout, or nitrogen deficiency. I will try to find the prob, tx for the help guys.

p.s. get back to me on how that lime works and we can work this thing out together :thumbsup: cause i just watered with the fish-emulsion.

did you flush your plants before giving them fish emulsion? cause nothing will really help until you flush them.

to do a proper flush, you are supposed to flush with 3x the amount your pot holds. ie 3 gallon pot, flush with 9 gallons of water. Just in case you didn't know.

ps: if the water running out the bottom of the pot is yellow-ish, that's a definite sign of nute buildup. been there, done that.
