Nutrient burn from vermifire

run-off can give a crude ballpark, and we have an improved run-off pH testing and calculation method here in the highlighted section above,...but in general, it's a PITA, and still offers only estimated pH,... So, you have a pH meter that's new, but gone wonky? You must get storage solution and calibration solution as mentioned, to kepp it in good working order,... Like I said, trust the A8 probe more for in-pot pH,... you still have the liquid dropper pH test kit? Oh wait, are you calling the A8 probe a meter? there's some confusion here,... the A8 is not for liquids, it'll ruin it!
 
I have the A8, a water pH meter, and the drip kit. I just referred to the probe as a meter as well
 
New probe came in today. Watered the 3 in green fields. Waiting a few hours for things to settle then I'll test the pH. Curious about defoliating and pruning. I've read alot about it but can't seem to get a straight answer. The tops are filling in nicely but the is a ton of popcorn on the lower branching. All are 2-4 weeks from harvest still. Would it be beneficial?.

4 out of 5 of these ones in promix are tiny but started flowering, do you think they are even worth keeping.? Or get rid of them. Not kill them. But maybe find a place outside to throw them

So I've been trying to do some of my own research instead of blowing you guys up lol. Just wanna see what you guys think, I'm getting yellowing and spotting on a good amount of leaves on this plant. Some are just yellow, some just spotted and some both. I'm thinking nitrogen and magnesium....?¿? What does it look like to you?

Also on some of the plants that are a week or 2 away from harvest have some sun leafs dying up by the main cola on one. The other with much dencer nugs has like almost a rust spot appearance on sugar leaf around buds

Hi There! :d5:


Those rusty spots look like a calmag def to me and the pale leaves show it's bit underfed - this could all be caused by lockout due to PH being out of whack.
I'd be mixing up some epson salts and giving it a good old spray - while trying to get the soil PH back in ball park.

SCRAP THAT

I've just looked at waira's handy guide in the sticky

phosphorus-deficiency-bagseed-haze2-sm.jpg


Red stem ... Patches that look like that?? .. Looks kinda like yours right?

It's looking like a Phosphorus: def!




Just my little opinion though :D I've never quite been a waira!

:d5:

I could definitely see how it could be p but the red veins aren't extremely prominent. And if I'm correct you can get red or purple veins from calmag deficiency." I may be incorrect on that". But I am a somewhat newbie. Also the lower seem to be starting to change then it moves upword. I did get all phs back in check btw all are reading between 6.3-7.0. appreciate the thoughts!! Lemme know what you think
