Hey everyone, I a really new to this.

Light: fluorescent
Soil: fox farm happy frog
Nutes: Iguana Grow Juice Bloom, supposed to be 1x/week at 1/2 strength
Week 3 of flower

So, I am going to try to vent my frustration here in a tactful way because my fiancée will read this. One of us, I am not going to say who, overwatered last week and also gave a full dose of nutrients when we,ve been using a 1/2. The source of water was changed and pH wasn't checked. The plants have yellow leaf tips, brown spots on leaves, and some of the leaves are crinkled. (Will post photos soon.) To me it looks like I am dealing with overwatering, pH problems, nute burn, and a deficiency I cannot place.

Oh, the water one of us, I am not going to say who, used might have been softened

Welcome to RIU, and the wonderful world of cultivating the world's most misunderstood and feared medicines!!!

The only 'advice' I can give you or anyone is to read and learn and then apply what you have read and learned to your garden and you cannot fail. Anyways, remember the search tool is your friend...Lots of folks here willing to help a new farmer get up and growing. But at the end of the day your grow will be only as good as the knowledge and work you put into it.

It is always great to ask questions but do not take anyone's advice or opinions and follow blindly. Do your own research, you will be much happier knowing you have done it for yourself and by yourself. The first buzz you get from your own budz...is by far the BEST high you will ever have!



Good Luck and Great Growz!!!

No need to flush...wait until she needs to be watered, add a tsp of cal/mag and let it go....do that until the issue is corrected.

Well, if she is still your fiancée...she made an error in not correctly balancing the ph levels. That is what likely caused the issue.

BTW I have used FFHF soil exclusively forever....notorious for needing cal/mag towards the end of the life cycle. But, I love it and since it ain't broken I ain't gonna fix it.
