Tristans Sick Blueberries!!

[tristan1986]

Hey guys..
Few probs!

Basically i have had a few of my plants flipping out. Im sure its because i did a straight water feed with some terribly off PH levels. I am getting a few difference deficiencies from what i can see but really im no professional what SOEVER lol

I have two 600w lights, adequate ventilation. Using the canna range within their recommended dosage levels. I think im seeing potassium problems but ive been feeding well. im thinking PH shock causing deficiencies..
Well i've given them a good PH'd flush yesterday and i know which the "chart" you can't say much but im just putting this photo out because i think it looks a bit crazy and just seeing if anyone has any insight with the little info im sharing lol.

Thanks guys, your always helpful.
This is the first serious problem i've had and geeeeeezzz it sucks lol

Ohh and the waffling isn't from overwatering because i have great drainage

Whats "waffling"???? Never heard it put that way....

What was the ph of the offensive water?

Have you made any other changes to nutrients or additives or schedules? (switching to flowering, for instance)

How low on the plant was the leaf taken from?

Is there yellowing of the new growth, and is this starting from the bottom-up?

If it was the ph thing, and you've already flushed and are keeping ph in range, it might be a couple of weeks before 'normal' new growth develops. You might get some weird yellowing, twisting or malformed leaves, but old leaves won't heal, so don't be disappointed when they don't. New growth should look ok once healing starts.

If it was only one watering with unacceptable ph, doubtful nanners will form...but keep a close eye on 'em. If you do get nanners, and they do open, the seeds will be female if no males were in the room. (perfectly femmed seeds, albeit accidental)

Any chance for pictures of the plant, or placing the plant on your scanner...? <just kidding...don't try the scanner>

Perhaps refering to puffed-up, pillowy, quilted in appearance...?

The plants are already a few weeks into flower and i have only been using canna flores so far

How low on the plant was the leaf taken from?
That leaf was from the top of the plant but its strangely happening slowly to all my plants but the blueberry is the worst affected sadly

Is there yellowing of the new growth, and is this starting from the bottom-up?
The new growth seems to be greenish, ill have to have another good look on lights on.

If you have a look at the corners they are quilted and puffy i just call them that

Thanks heaps for the advice mate!

HAve you checked the Canna website for a weekly feeding schedule?

On occation, I've seen those that were going into flower, get a shot of growth nutes the day of final transplant and switching, where they also get flowering nutrients. (Overdosing) Sure you didn't spray or spill something on it?

Anyway, that one leaf indicates to me a severe overdosing. Would be nice to see the whole plant, and have ya fill-out the troubleshooting form if they don't improve quickly, but that's the best I can offer without more...

Cheers mate :thumbsup:

I gave them a good flushing and feed via foliar feeding and they seem to have become quite happy. Definately going to affect the final weight but hey, these are the breaks!
