Thank you for this! I’ll look into getting some of these supplements in the near future. How do you know when to add these, outside of your plants displaying shortages?

My regiment for feeding was off the recommendations from the General Hydroponics feeds. Noted on the PH meter, getting a newer, better one on order today. I did PH my mix going in and it was was 6.5 when I fed them. I’ll be more careful about water PH though going in. Didn’t realize how...

That’s what we concluded as well which drove me to think it was the the soil PH as it was starting prior to me doing anything with the water PH. I probably accelerated it though.

Thank you for the tip! I’ll start doing this on my next watering cycle.

I haven’t heard of that suggestion before. Have to look into that! No bugs on either plant. My local Hydroponics center helped identify the issue. We believe it ended up being a small lockout. Reading through some of the advice here I may have accelerated the issue a bit but will correct my...

The issue appeared prior to me ever watering them. After watering the spots appeared a bit stronger. I didn’t realize the soil had a built in protection. Still learning.

Makes sense, yes I understand what you’re saying.

Would it not be advantageous to do both then? I have a friend who does this and has great grows using the bottom watering method.

I started watering at the center but have since just moved to watering using the pan and letting it absorb through the bottom. When I was going through the top I didn’t really have any runoff make it through to the bottom. My most recent watering was more and the plants have since perked up...

Added at the bottom for the plants to absorb lower PH since the soil was so high at 8+ PH

Hey guys, Trying to identify my issue. I just fed plants nutrients one day ago. 2 mg Calmag, 2mg Micro, 2mg Gro, 1mg Bloom.Using TS1000 grow light. Using fox farm Ocean forest soil. 7 gallon pots. 18/6 light cycle 50-55 RH, temps sit around 80-85 F. PH of soil was sitting around 8 so I added...

Thanks, I’ll keep an eye on them. I have another in the same soil that has maybe one yellow spot on its tip but has been in the exact same conditions. Looking to move to cooler temperature room shortly.

You think? I haven’t added any nutrients to the grow outside of using Lush Root soil.

Hey guys, any ideas on what this could be?
