Anyone care to chime in?? I did an experiment with 2 pint of RO water @ph4.5, added 4 heaping tablespoonful of gypsum. PH went up only to 6.5...... added a drop of phosphoric acid and ph went down again to 3.6... Then did another test with tap water @ph7.5, went up to 8.5.... When I did...

High all!! I am having problem with calcium deficiency in my coco grow, and unfortunately I do not have access to calmag, not even mail order... I've tried dolomite lime mixed on my coco which only caused lockout issue due to ph problem. I got rid of the dolomite by flushing with shitload of...

Yes correct...All powdered form... Well... a little further east my brother..... :) I don't actually mind less than perfect harvest. Can I still get away with maxigrow by adding something..??? LOL then I think I got a lifetime supply ... What exactly are you suggesting with this? Do you mean I...

I am planning to do that, but many people dis maxigrow for the reason snow crash mentioned above. Well I don't actually mind if my harvest is less than perfect... Practice makes perfect no?

Re potting would be my last resort. I will try flushing daily with some ph offset and keep close monitor of any parameter change... So what do you use now? CNS17 too?? I have on hand some ingredients to make cns17 equal (Fatman's formula), but I doubt the validity of the Fatman's formula and...

Yes I know, I've been hearing great things about it, too bad I do not have access to it... I live in far east, don't feel comfortable having fertilizer being sent to my address.... I get my powdered maxi series from my in law who come once a year... There is no way she would be willing to lug...

This is seriously what I needed to hear!! You guessed everything right on the spot...Thanks a billion dude.....

LOL!! I was blindly following the infamous "As#*d coco grow guide" from "THAT" forum (Is name calling allowed here??).... I knowwwww. I should've kick myself on head for putting dolomite on my coco.... My logic told me not to put lime, but the infamous grow guide swore by dolomite lime in COCO...

Bunch of joker!! LOL!! I like this forum much better than 'THAT' forum....

Thanks a million dude. The answer I found here helped me more in an hour than what I get a week from 'THAT' forum... LOL!!! I am being an ass to 'THAT' forum now... I lugged almost 60 gallon of water yesterday, treating each 5 gallons individually before dumping and dealing with hell of a watery...

Sorry slightly out of topic guys.. But since we are here already, could you guys help me pinpoint what exactly is my problem.... I am leaning very heavy towards phosphorous lockout due to PH problem, slow growth and small fan leaves, but it might be magnesium problem too (older leaves affected...

I did exactly that plus run off ph too. Both are pretty damn close. Contrary to what poster from 'THAT' forum led me to believe, "dont worry about runoff PH, your going in PH is what matter".. It is all bollocks... Now I learnt, if your run off is high, then your actual ph is high too. Use...

LOL!! You got that exactly right.... The so called expert on that coco SPECIFIC forum never even bother to answer my questions nor backup his statement about his dolomite use. F#ck that forum!! I would love to disclose that idiotic poster and idiotic forum but that would be fishing in murky...

I did exactly this and got this problem.... The suggestion to use dolomite was from the other forum with coco specific subforum and was posted by the most "expert" (Mehh) guy on coco in that forum... He swore by it..

High all, what is the most accurate way to ph coco? I am having a constant battle with ph ever since I mix my coco/perlite with dolomite lime at the rate of 1 tblsp/gal. Everybody said not to worry about run off ph, but when you flush your 2 gal media with almost 20 gal of RO water ph 5.8...

I just re potted the three plants about 8 days ago. I mix the new coco perlite with 1tblsp/gal dolomite lime. I think this might be the culprit for my high ph.... My currently flowering plant without dolomite lime mix does not have any ph problem or any problem for that matter.... Some so called...

OK... Only happening in older leaves, bronze color before completely brown out and die, crispy leaves tip, curling upward, veins remain green before dried up completely. These facts suggest magnesium deficiency... However I tested my runoff water... Even with 1/2 gal Ph 5.5 @500ppm epsom salt...

Yes I believe that. I have another strain grown with exactly the same conditions and has doubled it size compared to the one on pics with no problem at all... Too bad I had to kill it last week due to it being a male.... What really confused me is the rate the problem occur...Overnight... I...

Thanks for the link, but I read a lot before I commence my grow. I got many links with pictures for nutrient disorder. To my very limited practical knowledge and referring to all my bookmarked links, my problem looked like either magnesium or phosporous problem... i am just confused which one. I...

I am going to try to reduce ppm since I don't see any difference in growth rate between 500-700 ppm anyway. I also suspected overfeeding at first, but the rest of the leaves are perfectly healthy with no tip burn or drooping at all. So I ruled out overfeeding.
