Hey man. I wish I had spotted this thread a little earlier. Sorry about the condition of your plants. How is your pH looking? And have you added any nutes other than the rhizo? I'll be posted.

Yo! Fellow Lowryder grower!!
Cheers for the comments. I'm now back on normal nute tabs (for the last week).
I've just checked the PH - 7.4
I know that's high. I don't really know how high though. I think I need to get it down to about 6.5??
I've got some stuff to push down the PH for my aquarium so I guess it should work on my AG. I'll give it a go tomorrow.

Wish my plants looked like yours...

One day...

PH should be 5.5 to 5.7, you need to get that down so they can absorb some nutrients.

Yep. Anywhere between 5 and 6 will do you though. You've gotta keep up on the pH constantly. With a pH as high as yours your plants don't really have a chance. pH too high or too low will fuck everything up, every time. Get that balanced and everything else will become much easier. Best of luck, and thanks for checking out my grow! :peace:
 
Guys, thanks for the info about PH. I didn't realise that PH was so important and tha it has to be so low. I just presumed 7 was about right.

Hopefully, it'll start improving once I've managed to get it lower.
