Can someone please help identify the problem with this plant?

[Aucklander]

Don't worry about the bottom leaves they are fucked anyway ,most likely will keep dying of and fall .

 

I'd give it just water and see how she goes ,,enough water for plenty of runoff.see how she looks in a couple of ,or few days.

 

id check the very first bit of runoff for its ph ,,it shouldn't be showing colour if it's that hot,,,so maybe its way out in the medium ,,,what exactly is the medium ?

Thanks. Started the seeds in jiffy pellets, and then placed in Debco Organic Mix from Bunnings, added some perlite to the mix.

 

I will do the water run off now.

PH of the run off is 5.9

 

Do I need to adjust the PH? 

 

The one on the right is a Northern Light, slower growing but overall happier looking.. They get the same everything, not sure how come they are so different grow. 

 

This is the soil i used; http://www.debco.com.au/products/edible-garden/debco-organic-potting-mix

I reckon it's the half strength biobizz you gave it .

 

Just give it water ph 6.5 if it's got food in the mix,,should come good ,the NL is prob less sensitive.

 

What ratio of perlite are you using ,,,and looks like only perlite for the top layer ?

[Aucklander]

Yes agree that must be it. I added some gogo juice in that as well at normal rate.

 

Perlite ratio like %25 in the soil mix. Yes the top layer is flat perlite, i read somewhere it would help with flies, drying the top quicker after watering. Done it after i saw a fly in there.

But shouldn’t it go dark green if its due to the nutrient abundance?

Not if the ph is out ,,for the food to be available the ph needs to be at certain level depending on the medium.

Yours is mostly soil so I think the range is 6 to 7 with 6.5 being ideal..

 

Get your ph right and your problems will most likely stop ,,that is if other things are running right.

[Aucklander]

ok, thanks for all the help, much appreciated!

i dont reckon its the ph, sure could be better, but at that size i think itll be from excessive nutes, from readn about your soil its good quality and loaded with stuff, theres enuf in that to grow the thing a meter high without adding a thing to it

Yeh,,I reckon the bio buzz was too much for it. Edited May 25, 2018 by Serrated edge
