New Grower If at first you don't succeed, try again.

DWCocha thanks for the rescue attempt I've put it up to 750ppm on my meter now and put the light up till its max about 40 inches away. The DP nutes are the old ones and I heard it said that they are stronger that the auto ones so that's why I've fed under perhaps. I'm gonna have to cope with these meters till I get one right for financial reasons yet understand they need changing. So now ppm 750. Ph 5.6 will add more if she lifts. DECocha I thank for you knowledge let's hope this works, 8 litres tap water added veg nutes at 6 mill of both firstly then 3 mill take root and after 6 mill Cal/mag.
Peace

Could be the way way your mixing dude ...deffo add the cal mag 1st .It's hot stuff & doesn't mix well with other nutes so putting it in 1st & letting it dilute a while is pretty important .I recommend a res change as you could have an imbalance going on ,but add cal mag 1st & maybe increase from 6ml - 8ml ... then half to full strength take root followed by your A&B Veg upto around 750ppm Also some silicon is a good idea but not essential ,does help with veg growth though .

A combination of high PH ,low ppm & to much LED is my best guess & hope you see some improvement over the next few days .Good luck & subbed now so will check in bro :Sharing One:

Thanks DWCocha, I tried with that one and failed again. I think this became part of the problem also. I'm not sure why the stem went like this.


So now my 2 week old OGRE is the next and I've popped a Dinafem Bubba Kush into a wet paper towel. Oh I still have the stunted Babyboom on her last week of nutes before a weeks flush.
I shall update on those tomorrow.
Thanks again guys lets see if this time it works one half decent plant and I can get a new ph meter lol.

Well here I am again just a couple of pics of OGRE on day 17 I think she had her first feed a couple of days ago and seems happy enough at EC 1.1 and a ph of 5.8



May your grows be great

Thanks redrobbo, I'm feeling a little less stressed now and am keeping a close eye on them. The only thing that stresses me now is having to pay out readies till I get a decent grow lol
Cheers for looking in fella.

Amazing growth on the OGRE in the last few days I'm quite happy.




The seedling is in her place and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that she is well.



And the Babyboom I'm still having a play with well she looks a mess at 6 inches tall max yet look at the roots since I sorted my problems.







Peace
Jax
