Haggard plants

[Shennen]

So I believe I found my problem. I flushed yesterday, got a run off of about 5:8 to 6.1 for most. Thought I was watering right but nope.

So they are in 3gal and I gave the, 6-8 gals of tap water with no ph adjusters to raise to 6.5.

Tap water was 190 ppm and 7.7 ph.

They are showing signs of mag def, thought it was the hard water? But I guess its not that hard.

What's my next step? Will the lockout correct itself now that its flushed and ph'd correctly?
How long does it take to get back into the swing, wanted to flower soon.

depends on the longevity of the situation. you said HARD:thumbsup:, yeah yeah and RUN OFF:jointsmile: seriously though, need much more info, bro. this way everyone is happier and future newbies can a have compilation of information. what are you using to balance ph? i assume your in soil(you said run off), what prompted this inquiry? mag def ? based on what? with no pics you have to be precise.

I know, still feel like im doing something wrong, cause its illegal, but I only have 5 plants so part of me doesn't care.
Do you need a certain amount of posts to pm?

im sure i dont know. i dont use pm's. the feds are most likely not going to bother patients unless you drop it right right in front of them or they suspect more plants than you should. in cali all they went after for the most part were the people raking in the dough.

I know, and its funny cause I can barely keep mine alive and im worried about someone finding them...what a joke.

Really though, im having a lotta issues.
Do you use soil? I was thinking maybe RO is the answer...if I can ever figure out the ph area.
suggest any newbie guides to feeding for soil?

Was is bad to flush with 7.7 water to raise to 6.5?

It wasn't bad to flush with the 7.7 pH water if that was what was needed to bring your soil's pH back up. As far as the nutes(I think i remember seeing Grow Big, so i'm gonna assume FF), go to their website and check out their feeding schedule poster. I would also recommend, if you use FF products, reading their FAQ section of their website. It has a ton of useful information for people who are new to fertilizing their grows.
