Plant Problem
Sorry, michaelpeg. I've been in some pain for the last coupla weeks and I *cough* "overmedicated" myself before answering your post. I did miss some things! And, your frustration is evident so I would like to try to help.
Hush my puppies! You did answer it. The freakin' question doesn't ask the important thing, though: how often do you water? I realize you feed / water alternately, but the question doesn't ask whether this is a daily or monthly event.I answered question 14: 14: I feed every second watering and i water with about 250mls with and without food
Here's what I'm thinking:
Fox farm is good soil, I've used it several times, but it's HOT (lotsa nutes). Enough to have shocked your plant when you first started using it. A plant that small probably was not using the nutes nearly as fast as you were adding them, even at half-strength or even less. Small plant + big potta hot soil = no extra nutes needed for 3 weeks, maybe.
If you were watering every day, and feeding every other, that would definitely cause what we're seeing here. Less often, maybe still caused it. So, how often were you watering?
I'm not a fan of moisture meters. I poke my finger in there, and heft the pot for weight.the plants are not youngens, like i said they are 3-4 months old,
Sorry, I did read that, but was looking at the pics, and :stoned: :stoned:
I let the soil get quite dry
Well, you want it to dry a little...not enough to shrink and crack, though.
I use a moisture meter to penetrate the soil and i see how much soil sticks to the probe when I see its dry to about an inch and a half from the bottom I water(lets me know at what level it is wet),
If you have access to a TDS / EC meter, THAT might be helpful. I would check the runoff water and see if it's still hot coming out.
The problem still looks like a semi-drowned plant with a toxic buildup in the soil.
HTH, Hermie
