Hydro Nute Problem with pics... Help Needed

[MVP]

OK, back from the store and errands... need info to mix up this brew..... so how many ml/gal of CalMag should add to the nutes in your opinion? I have the following from the new nutes I put in a day and a half ago:

3 gallons RO water + 1 gallon tap water (96 PPM)
Pure Blend Pro - Bloom, 60ml (630 PPM)
Liquid Karma 20ml (100 PPM)
Sweet 10ml (50 PPM)
--------------------------------
Total PPM = 885
PH = 5.8

I checked them a minute ago - the PPM was 920 and PH was between 5.7 - 5.8

Well not sure how long you've been without the necessary minerals etc...so lets start with 200ppm....especially since you have a nudge of tap water on board.....I would simply add it and watch things....see how they do.

I REALLY hope this solves your probs MVP......otherwise.....i never heard of you.. (j/k!)

Shoot. You're one of those dirty hippies with the pure-organic grows!
I haven't the foggiest how else to add a lot of micro nutes really effectively and remain fully organic.
Troubleshooting an organic grow is HARD as you've seen. I hate to say it but this is enough of an emergency to go grab a bottle of GH micro or algoflash and swallow your organic pride for a moment anyway... or have a friend do it if you simply can't bear to spray the evil chemicals yourself... hahaha....

Frankly I prefer to be called a California Hydro Hippie. And I found the organic Micro at the Hydro Hippie market... read on amiga....

Well, I started winging it an hour ago since I was under a time pressure with friends coming over any minute now: I added CalMag and Earth Juice (organic!) Micro to bring total PPM to 1115. I have to report that 95 Percent of the PPM bump was due to the CalMag.

Wish me well, I gotta say a prayer and hope for the best! imp:

Oh yeah, I applied the organic Micro as a topical to the foliage too......

That the EJ Micro-blast? Good stuff, if it is.

[Weedhound]

That sounds good to me except the Micro blast thing which I have no clue. Update in am MVP....now I'm all excited about it.

Hi Rhizome...

[MVP]

That the EJ Micro-blast? Good stuff, if it is.

Yes it is the EJ Micro Blast. Local hydro guy recommends it for those of us Hippies that are stubbornly determined to grow organic hydroponics. Thanks for stopping by, I can use all the eyes and minds that can help figure out this mess...

Morning Update:
Checked the numbers
- 1060 PPM (was 1115 last night)
- 5.7 PH (same as last night)

Foliar fed the girls with 1/2 strength EJ Micro Blast
Temps 67 F at canopy, 67 F solution
Exhaust fan dialed back to low
Some leaves on MKs look yellow with slight necrosis.. but not worse
Leaves on Super Spunk seem to be slowly regaining green color
Smells nice in there.... thank goodness

Afternoon/Evening Update to follow

oops...you just updated....n/m

[Weedhound]

Sounds like they are snarfing down the CalMag......which way do your numbers usually go....do they rise or go down for a trend?
