Micronutrients are different than microbes, but you want both with organics. The beauty of EWC is it has both. So does the soil you're using. So if you have extra soil I'd add that now to start.

If you want to use distilled and salts I'd just get some extra micronutrients in salt or Hydro form. But it sounds like you're not trying to go that route. I don't know.

I would've given it a top dressing a couple weeks ago or so but you still could now. That soil needed a supplement awhile ago, especially since you've been using distilled. You have fish and kelp coming now so you could use that too for now, but I'd also get another dry mix too. I'm lazy so I don't like to have to do much more than add water.

You still haven't answered the question about the 3.9 pH thing. And are you adjusting the pH with anything?
I thought you said the pH in those pots were in the 6's. What did you do to that soil to get it to read 3.9? o_O
Sorry all ass backwards here, confused myself had to re- read my own post. The 3.9 is the PH of the water with the nutrients in it. No ph up or down was used. The soil ph’s were in the 6’s yes.

Burned tips still but most of the other issues seemed to have resolved.
Looking a lot better!

Can't see the veins in the leaves now, a much more even colour.

Don't sweat the burnt leaf tips, those are there to stay for the duration - the plant can't repair fried damage. Just keep an eye to check it doesn't progress up the leaf. Plenty of folks here, including me, burn a few tips along the way to getting it right.
