wooaahhhhh, half your nutes and give them a few days flush first, think your blitzin' them. if anything like advanced nutrients, you gotta half what they say on the label, my ppm hit 1900 on the recommended feed schedule;(

I am in soiless... I looked it up the best ph is 5.8 in veg and 6 during bud... the reason for 6 is so nitrogen can be absorbed most efficiently.... I am not hydro sorry....Ill try flushing again....


sounds like you doubt its a deficiency

i take it your pots are big enough too? too small pots = rootbound and chance of issues. soil could be full of salts, rinse again, water never kills plants, just cleanses (just dont drown em!)

Okay sounds good. I usualy flush... feed...feed....flush ..feed...feed... fush. I use about 2litre of water per plant when feeding... when flushing I use 3.5 litres... I never allow run off to touch the bottom of the pot. Always flush over a basin allowing the water to go right through.... What about the ph... what ph is used in soiles

Here's the advice I've always followed:

If it's just a simple perlite/vermiculite mix, coconut coir, or clay, go with 5.8 - 6.3

If it's a mix of organic matter, ie. Peat moss and forest products then go with 6.2 - 6.7

I have to say I've never had any issues with Advanced Nutrients, especially when you use fewer nutes than the bottle says you should. Nice thread here....
