PH issue??

ok i know this plant is healthy but i want the best i can do i have 4 ladys flowering feeding technaflora nutes(bc boost, bc bloom,magical,sugardaddy,awesome blossom,thrive allive red) as well as superthrive,cal pro,a lil organic honey once a week and nutrilife's nutrigreen A(10-0-0)

my ph has been kinda high since ive been checkin it 6.8,6.9 in all 4 plants 3 are very green no spots on leaves or discoloring but 1 has some its not much at all just a couple leaves like the ones pictured

Anyway im wondering if the one plant is suffering a nute lockout due to the ph or is it just nute burn on this plant. Its only my 2nd grow so im kinda unsure as my 1st grow didnt throw much at me in terms of problems but i do strive for the dopest dope i ever smoked when its weed i grow haha:lol:

Ill give ya a lil more info...soil grow in an 0.08-0.12-0.08 dirt,400watt mh/hps convertable with (2) 105watts cfls as side lighting(500 watt equivilent) vegged for 1 month...grow journal link in my sig if anyone wants to see whats up

Thanks in advance:bigjoint::bigjoint:

I just went through the exact same problem, my ph (8.6) was waaaaay to high and the plant wasn't able to use the nutes. you want you ph at around 6.2 if you don't fix it soon it will take over the whole plant

I would flush the crap out of them w/distilled and make sure your pH tester is accurate. You are using A LOT of products in that soil. Less is MORE in soil.

i will give a flush next time im watering and im using a lot of different products but i feed light doses and give 2 watering of just water and superthrive...so like nutes water water nutes

Thanks for the link man very helpful
NP hope it helps ya out a little bit.

id say magnesium deficiency, im dealing with the same problem now.. looks alot like this problem..
Not trying to be a dick, but i would not say this is a magnesium issue. whie the discoloration seems similar to what a Mg Def MIGHT do, there is no upward curling of the leafs edges (praying for Mag as its known). However Calcium deficiencies can also cause a similar discoloration.

whats getting locked out....stop thinking like that....get a ph meter to test your water before you feed.....then flush with proper ph water and nutes....this WILL fix your problem....dont add anything extra...thats just a rookie move. proper ph is EVERYTHING. soil testers are garbage my friend...and dont test the run off...who cares whats coming out of your soil...what matters is that you put the correct things in. :)
