New Grower Finally after 5 year of waiting, decided it's time for a new Grow.

Plant Magic range.
Grow, bloom, PK booster, catalyst, a seaweed extract. magnesium and root stimulant. Not all at once mind.
EC of tap water is 0.345 or something similar, around that.
I don't mix in batches as they don't seem to need feeding all at once.

About same as my tap water. One sure fire way of course to see if they're over watered is to let them dry out :thumbsup: wishing u luck the rest of the way :vibes::pighug:

Missed a couple of things off the feeding schedule, Silicon and Biowetter.
Here is a picture.

I'm a bit worried about letting them dry out as Man O green, says to never let the pots dry out. :shrug:
They are always light when I water, and have lost over 50% of their weight, what do you think?

Sorry m8 wasn't too clear.. no don't let them dry out completely.. just make sure your 100% confident it's feed time by the weight of the pot before u go again.. if in any doubt at all wait another couple hours and check again and so on.
 
Just found out what was making my EC so high, it was the 1/2g of magnesium.
Worth remembering for future.
I was just able to feed the Godzilla Cookies I/2 the week 4 schedule and it only came out at 0.593 EC will try to raise it for the next feed.
Hopefully she turns a corner now.
 
Told you, you'd convince me, no I've gone and done it pump, airstones and lines ordered along with PK booster Compost Tea and Boom Boom Spray £159 roughly for the lot :coffee:
That was easy!! :haha: No really, you won't regret buying those. :thumbsup:
And for the amount you've spent it will last you a very long time, can tell you that brother.
Any questions on how to use it...Just give a holler and I'm coming runnin' :woohoo:
 
Hi Growmies, took some pictures of my sick plant this morning.
She looks better in the pictures than in real life.
Hopefully the feed last night improves her appearance, I fed organic liquid nutrient so they it may take a few days for her to show signs of recovery, also she had a low EC feed of 0.593.
Does anyone have any opinions on what might be wrong.
Here are the pictures.

Those droopy looking leafs in addition to the yellowing and rusty patches on the lower fans would indicate too much water or watering too often, among other issues and possibilities, such as, not enough watering. contrary I know, but thats how it goes with plants.

If I were you I would look around the web for pictures of overwatering and watering too often and compare the results to your plants and make up your mind. then look up under watering and do the same. GWE has a very good diagnostics page for instance.

i noticed you were mentioning "run off" earlier in the thread, one thing I have noticed about grow bags is that they allow a large amount of water to run out of the bags before the soil/medium has enough time to soak up the liquid, you might keep this in mind when watering.
A slow drip feed system or just pouring a small amount of water ( every 10 seconds or so) on top of the soil and allow it to soak in and down the middle of the pot will allow you to water the whole soil/medium/pot more evenly and give you a better idea of how much water the pot will acually hold before the run off is real and not just water pouring out of the sides of the bags.

Watering issues are often similar in the look of the plant so difficult to judge without being on site.
