adding lime to soil w/ plants already in.(help needed)
ok so things have been pretty solid so far,no curling plants are healthy for the most part...I gave them a higher ph/d (6.8-6.7) water for a week before resuming regular ph levels...I now think it might have been to soon to give them (6.5-6.4) ph'd water.
8 of the plants looked great, they really took well to the flushing...4 of the plants were hacked up a little more when they were clones and took a little longer to recover, I used the same amount of flushing solution on all of them(1/4 tsp per gallon) but the 4 weaker ones took the flushing solution a lil harder then they should have and were more of a pale green then true green like the other 8...but they are still recovering nicely.
The reason im posting now is because on 2-3 of plants there was some very slight brown spots which turned to rust spots over the weekend...I did some research and tested my runoff again...and its a litte low at 5.9-6.0...
The last time i gave them nuted water(350ppm) was last monday(10/11)...I was going to give them nuted water(500ppm) today but now I think that would be pointless if theres a ph problem since they might be in lockout...
so I was going to give them ph'd(6.8) RO water w/ cal mag today and the rest of the week to try and balance out the ph in the soil...
what do you think shake? I should probly mention this is my last 7 days of VEG...I really wanted to pump them w/ nutes and try and hit the 2ft mark(16inches now) but now i just want to get into flowering w/ everything ok\"Just doing what I can, w/ what I got\"
