Grow Mediums Nebula Cheese + Alien RDWC Pro (55l pots)

Some other problems could make you think you have overfert. problems. Like I get burnt tips all the time if there is even bit too much heat.

I usually start at 0.6 to 0.8ec for seedlings, my plain water ec is 0.1. I find usually if my Ph drops down under 5.8ph I always start having issues. Therefore I rather go with 6.0ph.

This one definately has too low EC. Bumb it to 1.0 for a starters and try to give it some stress relieving additives just a bit.
 
Does anyone have any EC guidance for me please?
Since the res change EC is 0.3, yes very low but before at EC 0.5 (still very low) I had signs of over fert.
That said now I think my roots are improving my ladies need more food. Who knows?

Ive got signs of nute deficiency, red stems and browning leaves.
According to this guide they need more food.

there is no way you have an over fert problem, more likely a PH issue or even too little nutes. What is your ph? what water do you use? Tap water? RO water?

Thanks for the reply Pop :)
Ive had water issues, was filtered but wasn't.. Im thinking this caused some kind of issue.
So brand new RO system gone in last week. Dumped the res and now we have water under control.

Base water EC = zero.
As we speak now EC is 0.3 and PH 6.1 in my res (using House & Garden Aqua Flakes A&B)
Res temp 19c
Humidity 20%
Room temp 24/27c

Im going to up my EC in stages, perhaps from EC 0.3 to 0.6 and then up to 1.0 over the next few days.
Water temps stable and so is PH once adjusted when I replaced the res.

THANKS FOR THE INPUT - Been feeling pretty isolated on this grow :-|
 
Just a thought since your RH is only 20% if the root system hasnt developed all too well the plant might strugle to moisturize the leaves.

Check Canna Rhizotonic for root development and stress reliever. It bases on seaweed and raises the Ph a little so carefull with it and just a little is enough. Like 5 to 10ml per 10litres range.
 
Agree with the above :grin: EC falling & PH rising is underfed mate .The deff is probably from the root issues blocking uptake & now she can feed properly she wants more ...a good sign of recovery & you should be able to go 0.7 at least ,maybe more but a 0.2 drop from 0.5 means you weren't far off :Cool bud:
 
EC and PH are stable. Not falling :)
Fingers crossed the tea is doing its thing.
 
How are things looking man? I have also just given mine the same tea, hopefully its keeps the slime at bay.
 
Hey Grimmy :)
Things have got better mate thanks. Lost one plant, got a couple of others not so great but the rest have really bounced back and put weight on.
Lights gone 12/12 today!!!!!
Done 3 or 4 brews of 50 litres and it looks like the plants like it.
Ive upped my EC to 1.0 and really made an effort on the heat. I think some of my problems were heat stress.

Still not taken any pictures.
Ive lost my way with this diary. Just not feeling while things are dodgy.
I will take some but had enough things to worry about.

Good luck with your grow.
 
Glad things have improved bud ,look forward to pics & got your back if you need it man ,send a PM anytime :Sharing One:
