Vape Posted November 4, 2020 Report Share Posted November 4, 2020 I am using pure rain tank water with a PH of about 6.6 I think. I have Yates Magnesium chelate but no calcium additive so to speak. Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile appHey Joe. Its ok mate we all had to start somewhere Get your self a good cal/mag like bio diesel ... its a great one. Its exxy. But worth Add it FIRST to every feed 1ml/10ltrs. It will bring your rain water back to tap minus the nastys. Add your base AB. Then add the rest. PH 6.6 is a bit high.. aim for 6.0 -6.2 What light you running? Peace. Sent from my GT-I9506 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReeferJoe Posted November 4, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2020 i'll guess watering , because the realization of your over watering generally turns into under watering start off with 2 much then you possibly back off 2 much i reckon it's under watered & while the soil was dry you watered the plants with liquid nutrientsliquid feeding a water stressed plant could cause the yellowing/burning your seeing how do you determine when you water your plants nowHey itchybro thanks for taking the time to stop by and help out, appreciate it. I usually use the lift method and in occasions a moisture meter. But atm it’s taking like 8 days to completely dry out. So I know there is slot of below top surface roots that still need some moisture so I give the about 400ml each.

I do have Great White Premium Mycorrhizae in powdered form if that’s the sort of stuff your referring to. But you could be into something with giving them too much love. After all as they say, they are just a weed[emoji23]Really stoked with all the help you guys are offering and will take it all on board to try and get my girls back up and happy.[emoji120] Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReeferJoe Posted November 4, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2020 sorry if i missed it , what size pots are they in 400ml of nutrient water everyday ? they are in 5 gallon fabric pots. No i usually feed,water,water. When i feed its usually a good drenching till runoff. The next 2 waterings are about the 400ml just to wet the top 1/3 whilst waiting for the bottom to dry but it just seems to take forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
