Me again,
Had a problem with my little one from a few weeks in.
It is at 6 weeks now and 25cm in height.
I have healthy growth, however, the leaves 1 or 2 tiers under turn yellow, curl up and fall off.
(Looks a little white in the pics due to the LEDs)
This is happening continuously as she has new growth.
Now, I am pretty sure this is a Nitrogen issue.
I don't over water.
My watering schedule is as follows:
1 watering of 5-0-0 mix. (Ive been told for this a straight Nitrogen mix can be good.)
1 watering of normal water
1 watering of 6-6-6 mix
1 watering of water
And thus basically repeat this.
I am growing in a soil medium with a PH that sits around 6 to 6.5
Plenty of air blowing around and nice and warm, without being hot.
Growing under LEDs and CFL
I am getting a little new growth where the leaves previously fell off, little leaves appearing.
It seems rather healthy except for the leaf issue.
I repotted her about 2 and a half weeks ago and gave her some good neutral soil.
It may just be some readjusting but, she is having the same problem and I fear if I don't help her, she may not be able what she is supposed to do.
I would appreciate any advice on how to solve this issue
Keeping in mind:
I cannot get all the famous brands etc where I live.
I am on a budget
I am a newbie.
Cheers
