Temps - 77
Humidity - 40 (past day been low, 35)
Tap water. PH 6.5 Fox Farm Ocean Forest. 30% Perlite
Fox Farm Grow Big Big Bloom and I just started bloom nutes cuz I was convinced I was going to flower but now Im having problems.
The plants looked healthy. I watered and got signs of "over-watering" even though I was CONVINCED i didnt. PH 6.5. 1.75 gallons in 12 pots of this size 3 gallon pots. Overwatering, no way.
I let them sit out for awhile because I was told I overwatered. They got droopy couple hours after water.
I realized these things needed water and I watered them. They bounced back about 1/2 way by the time I went to sleep. When I woke up they were sick as hell looking again.
The droop hasnt gone away. I was convinced it was something wrong with my rootball and my tips were fried or I had root rot or something. These girls just didnt respond well to anything. I decided to pull one out of the pot and check the roots.
The strong white roots made me believe I wasnt over-watering by any means and that things should be doing well. What I did notice is that my dirt was drier at the bottom then it is at the top and I believe they're breathing out of the size vents on my pots from the bottom up, causing me to underwater. (I watered yesterday) I watered the one that I pulled out and looked dry, as well as her next door neighbor. Im waiting to see any reaction in those two.
Any ideas?
