Anyone know what’s up with these babies before I jump out my window

Higher up that ph!!! Flush your plants. I would advise you to start using humic acids, especially from leonardite. Its great to reduce plant stress abd make them eat more

I wouldn't suggest following this advice.

Hi mate I gave them a run off yesterday and I feel they look as bad if not worse this morning. Almost like they are over watered. What u think

This is them today after a heavy feed last night

I can tell by the top of the coco that you didn't feed properly because part of the coco is still dry........it looks like you only watered around the plant and didn't saturate the coco. The feeding probably ran straight through the coco and ran out the bottom without saturation.

By the way......one of your plants is showing pistils.

Coco basics:
Feed every day to substantial run off with a pH around 6.0.
Never plain water.
Never let the coco dry.

Good luck.

Is the fact they are showing pistils a problem?

its a sign that they are mature, and/Or stressed out !

Did you test the run off?
It tells you everything you need to know at a glance.

Well spotted @MickFoster I never thought to look, I thought giving them a good good soaking and checking the ec was made clear? .
How can you expect them to look better, if you keep doing the same thing you'll get the same results.
Best of luck.

I will be doing this tonight? Shall I use a normal strength feed?

Right I’ve spent all night at it

plants have been well and truly soaked

I fed them root excelurator cal mag and canna a and b
E.C was level 1
And ph was 6.0

a quarter of the plants run off after a heavy feed was

E.C 0.8 with a ph of 6.0

and the majority of them which I found shocking was

E.C 2.4/2.6 with a ph of 6.5

I then flushed these plants with my feed till they got back down to E.C 1.0 it took quite a lot of feed to do this, but on These plants with the high ec and higher ph, after the flush with the food the ph stayed high at around 6.4

any info on these results would be great.... thanks my back is now broke lol

The reason for that is because you weren't feeding to substantial run off.......salt build up.
When you flush......use a weak nute solution.......never plain water.

Feeding to run off daily replenishes the nutes, pulls in fresh oxygen to the roots, and prevents salt build up.

Remember that what order u mix ur nutrients in also matters. Calmag first. Good luck

Does anyone know which thread has the chart showing the different meaning for hydro situations?

Eg.
High pH but low EC means....
Low pH low EC means....
High pH high EC means...

Etc, etc.

I got u! Threw in some other useful ones as well.

Thanks guys.. I will be giving them run off from now and checking run off daily! Hoping they recover fast

If you keep maintaining run off and your environment you'll get hassle free growing, the two are directly related.
Keep it simple :thumbs:

does my run off want to match the feed going in?

Yes you want at least the ec of what's going in.

They dont like the spectrum... its like they are missing something in the light they look light starved yet no stretch...
