No plants do not fade you just dont know how to properly feed.top down is usually overfeed.bottom up is underfeed
That’s really weird, in my experience, plants fade towards the end of their life
Also, not knowing how to feed would be relative to the situation. I use living soil, so I don’t really feed the plant, I feed the soil and the only time I see fading is when the pot isn’t big enough. That’s why the question was about the difference from the top to bottom or bottom to top fading.
I use soil, 3.0 blend and it’s pretty hot so you don’t even need to use nutrients if you don’t want to, water only works wonderfully
Its this one plant specifically , the others are killing it. I appreciate everyone who comes on here and tries to help other people instead of criticizing them. It’s really nice to be kind especially in such a niche community such as this.
I have attached some photos of the plants so you can see how they are doing. If you notice the second photo, it’s a lot lighter , that’s where the question comes from . If I show the whole grow, it will be very confusing because I do a lot of random experiments with . Pretty sure I solved the problem though, I didn’t use a big enough pot.
The last time I grew the same plant the only ones that faded were the larger of the bunch. The third photo is the last grow I did with the shoreline. The only thing I dont like about Living soil is that light intensity seems to limit me. I’ve used really small lights and grew them super slow and they came out better than anything I’ve ever seen, but the yield was ridiculously small. As soon as I crank up the power, I need a bigger pot. I’ve learned everything I know from doing it over and over, but still have a lot to go with the Living soil stuff, I was advanced nutrients and cocoa for many years
Hope you have a good day.
