spotting curling leaves???

[headshake]

thanks dive and rusty! i appreciate the feedback.

i NEVER fed the plants at full strength, only at 1/2 strength. i do read these boards and your posts rusty! they have also been given superthrive at every watering/feeding. could this be too much?

i hear ya on the dosages rusty. i am currently feeding on this schedule:
water/feed, water/feed, water, repeat.
what do you recommend rusty? i understand there will be different factors, but what baseline do you recommend?

i've got the whole line up rusty! happy birthday to me. is that weird? getting nutes for cannabis for your bday.

and yes i do need a pH test kit of some sort, regardless. maybe tonight once the wife gets home.

thanks again!

before you switch nutes, you might want to flush.

(if you have a 5 gallon pot, flush with about 5 gallons. I move mine to the shower. final gallon is dosed with H202)

Its one of those things that when done right, especially with H202 added (hyd peroxide) it's almost never wrong.

even in overwatered plants, a flush, or at least water with H202, and it will get oxygen to the roots and tide them over until the medium dries out.

yeah, i got the flush part, thanks. and i'm aware how to flush, and when to use h202. why is that your answer for everything? thanks.

didn't rusty already tell you that too much h202 is bad for your ladies?

The leaf curl and the fact he has no clue what the ph level is are dead give-away's.Im not guessing.
I know that you prefer to give long winded answer's to make people think your slick,I Like to keep thing's simple.

for the most part i concure with rusty.
but a cap full of superthrive!?, in how much water?
and you still should be able to check ph

[headshake]

not a total cap full, just not a drop. in a gallon. and how should i be able to check my pH without a meter or test kit?

You could try the ph test strips, they are really cheap. Mine measure from like 6.0 to 7.6. The only problem with checking the run-off ph is that your water will be tinted, and could throw off your results. I ran my run-off through a paper towel (or clean towel would probably work too) and it cleared it up. Not sure if it affected the ph much, but the results were nearly similar before and after I cleared the water.

You'll need to shell out the 5 buck's for the liquid test kit. If you buy only one tool,make it the ph test kit.If you have too you can guess at ppm, but PH is by far the most important thing to get right.

thanks for the advice bigtop.

i know it dive. i should have had one by now. that's my bad. there is no good excuse. i'm a bad farmer. i do plan on getting a proper setup one of these days, including a nice 3 in 1 meter. lol.

*blushing* no I didn't ready rusty's reply on that if you could like, thanx

also, I figured with all rep points you've been here a while and knew how -- I didn't mean that to offend as much as maybe someone else will read it. (I really did think about that before I wrote it...)

too much h202 too often would be bad in organics.. no I don't use it all the time.

and --- flushing isn't always the best answer either

i felt like flushing was an answer I was either giving or reading a lot about recently -- I'm also on a state-local board, so ...
