this guy is smart .... best post ive seen in a LONG time on these forums. its underfed. it may seem as if the food is causing the spots but it is not the food. (you cannot "flush" soil like some have you think)

I often nute sometimes until my leaves are dark-ish and sometimes, my tips burn. I just brush it off, because the plant will recover.

I would stop using "Grow Big" during flower and stick with the other two, personally. My solid organic nutes are 3-4-2 and I yield well.

Alright, solid advice! I'll just use the other 2 at 1/3rd strength once a week. I just fed and added some mycos. Won't need to water or feed for at least 4 days.

I think you missed it: Use full strength. You need to feed the plant exhibiting P def.

Edit: Nevermind, you said the other two. How old are they? And are they in flower, too?

Plenty of folks are growing just fine with ffof and just tap water. FF nutrient line fucks another customer. I bet that stuff is chelated to force feed the plant. Do you even Ph bro?

I meant using the other 2 nutrients, and leaving out grow big


All my plants are in flower. I have 3 royal dwarfs, and 2 Dinafem critical. All autoflowers

They're all around 50-60 days old give or take

Ok thank you. I will do that on the next feeding. Think it'll be ok for now

The one exhibiting P def will probably get worse if you don't correct it. And Doc's probably right. You need to make sure your pH is in the correct range for it to take up the nutrients if it's chelated or salt-bound.

re-read your other comment. U said plenty of folks are growing fine with FF, and then u said FF fucks another customer

I think you meant " growing just fine without fox farms"

You re read it I said ffof (fox farm ocean forest) the soil it's self is not bad but the nutrient line sucks ass. Read the water only thread in my signature the last three or four pages are about ffof and other home made soil.

no need to ph in soil , wont help or hurt either way. the soil will ph it for you. i never heard anyone claim ff liquids are bunk......new to me. im leaning towards a N def so if it were me i would use GB at full strength twice... an also add whatever else your adding for PK.

Ph is everything that includes soil ph. If the soil ph is buffered you still need to ph the water unless your water only growing. In water only growing your soil is built up and micro organisms keep the soil buffered. Once you add sythetic chelated nutrients you kill the microbes that buffer the soil.
