plants not eating or drinking water


Recommended Posts

hello everyone iv been having a few dramas during the week first started off sunday gave them a flush with ph adjusted water then back on the feed Monday checked to tub Tuesday morning and they haven't eating or drinking the water so I gave them more water thinking there was too much nutes in the tub so I check again Tuesday night same problem so I flushed with ph adjusted water for 2 days then I put them back on a weaker feed of .8 ec with a bit of cannazyme  because they are faily chockers with roots I thought it would help break them down. I just don't get it plants seem fine they look healthy as and buds are still devopling  just got no idea whats goin on. tonight I will flush again with ph adjusted water on put back on nutes tomorrow night to see if it helps at all. anyone got any ideas? :wallbash:

Heya mate, you sure ya PH meter aint mis-reading. If ya got a one drop test kit, or can get one, keep one spare in the grow room. its a quick easy way to tell if ya meter is out.

The Enzymes eat dead roots, live healthy roots won't be touched, and takes a couple of days. Just keep an eye on ya plants, check PH, check PH pen and EC meter are correctly buffered and go from there.

Peace. Nibbler.

hey nibbler thanks for the input I tested the ph meter a week ago and was fine but have never checked the ec meter both items are a year old and only used for 2 grows this one being the 3rd I replaced meter last time because I have to move it around the tank for it to read propley but I shouldn't have to I should be able to stick meter in and get a reading with out having to stir it around last time I told the hydro shop bloke  he said bring it back if I have any dramas so im off to get both meters looked at from the hydro shop hopefully they help me out :bongon:

im definately qualified to answer this one. lol 

 

. calibrate ya ph meter.     you can buy a solution ready to go... make sure you are very confident in your readings..    incorrect ph reading will put your grow off very easily,  

 

Good luck..
