Hi mate, glad to hear they are a bit better.I took your advice and got them in 15L pots. They look a lot happier now. I tied them down again, and have some nice new growth.
The only thing I notice with them now is some of the browning and yellowing of some of the fans leafs at the tips and the claw look of them. After transplant I added magic cal and watered. It has been a couple of waters without nutrients other than the magic cal as I thought maybe I was over feeding (usually used less than recommended dose). Next water I will add nutes again. Any thoughts on what is causing the issue? It is really only a couple of them on each plant.
Just out of curiosity, how much water do you put into each pot typically when you water?View attachment 3234991View attachment 3234992 View attachment 3234997
I usually only water 10% of the volume of the pot. It means watering every couple of days but It also means air gets sucked into the medium fairly well.
If your getting the claw, clawing down is too much N, clawing up is mg as you know. I've also noticed that the main veins in your leaves on a couple of pics have turned purple. I'm sure that's N tox also. But I'll have to check that out.
I like to add a flushing agent once every two weeks or so to prevent salt build up and give them a good flush out. You may have salt build up which is causing Ntox and salt build up may cause a mg lock out.
Just a thought
