Yellow seedling help day 19

Needs feeding from what i can see
flushing may exasperate the problem, I'd mix up something with adequate levels of nitrogen cal and mag ph it to 6.4 and give her a good drink
see how she goes ??

i think so man just gave 2ml grow, 2ml heaven and 1ml algamic with 1litre of water yesterday ph was 6.4 gave a good spray of Epsom salts before lights out this morning. There is some green starting to come in the leaves also as you can seen.

Well done they are recovering nicely
 
That in-pot pH reading is what will determine the next step,... we don't know if it's still too high in there, or if this is simply lack-of now with such mild dosing,.. could be that this is just a sickly plant, which is anything but uncommon! I have had some that were bitchy about micronutes their whole lives, usually inferior performance/results too....
Tap water at 7.3 doesn't sound very hard, shouldn't drive pH up like that... but only a TDS/EC reading can solve that,...
you can try the flush, but if you do take readings of pH and TDS of run-off at beginning, middle and end, best you can estimate, to see what's going on there,.. If the first run-off is OK for pH/ppm, you don't need to do any more,... it's not a reliable measure of actual in-pot pH, but a crude estimate.. be sure to use unadjusted water, RO/Di/very low ppm water is important here, tap will have minerals in it that buffer pH and so will skew results.... BB nutes are mild, mostly organic, so pHadjusting the feeds and flushing are usually not recommended....

thanks for the advice man the tips of leaves at the top are coming green now so keep fingers crossed. I have just got a TDS meter so I’ll check things out

Hi guys the plant is at day 35 now and I am after confirming it’s a ph problem I checked the run off and came out at 5.5 after being given feed at 6.3 and also the leaves where flowers are appearing are slightly twisted. The vertical growth hasn’t stopped at all though.

To be honest I was so excited about my other plant finishing and the fact that this one had been sick from the start I kind of neglected her abit, you live and learn I suppose I will use this little girl as a lesson in how to correct ph I suppose :doh: I’m not too upset because the other one I’m chopping in a week looks great for my first attempt indoors.

I just fed so will be 3 days until pot dries my question is should I leave her be and just feed a light nutrient solution in a few days ph’ed to 7.0 and let her correct herself or should I flush her out?
