Potential calcium Deficiency?

[IndoorTropics]

Wish you have a great harvest from Mars. Here is the grow tips for your reference when growing under Mars led grow lights

Recommended Hanging Distance Above Plants

Seedling: 30'' Germination: 24''-30'' Veg: 18''-24'' Flower: 12''-18''

Recommended Lighting Time

Veg: 18/6(on/off) or 20/4(on/off) Flower: 12/12(on/off)

Thanks. The lights seem to work great. I look forward to showing off my future plants with your Mars lights as the plants continue to improve . The new test is going well (albeit with a few issues), let's see if i can finish her off well. hehe i would be massively proud

Gaaahhhh! That's right, it's N/A over there,... you'll have to do some net searching for a similar product, I don't know any....

Do you think this product is a suitable equivalent? I am just worried that my plants are slightly burned already with my current coil set-up so dont want this to cause more issues? Maybe it would be easier to add volcanic rock dust and Diatomaceous Earth to the soil instead, but if you think this product will fix my trace mineral deficiencies without causing much burn then ill def pick some up.

i also wonder if part of the mistake i made was originally when blending and cooking my soil i never watered to runoff before planting, not sure if thsi is important or not. Maybe i should have given runoff to the soil mix (before adding seeds) and try to get PPM into a reasonable range to begin with? Or?

Thanks i searched but cannot find the product you mentioned in the UK version of amazon. Does anyone know an equivalent or where to buy this in the UK?

For now i will dose epsom salts as you suggestd and add some Oragtrex with does contain all the trace minerals, but unfortunately contains everything else as well. IThe micronutes are about due. so this makes sense. i was just scared to do it cos of the recent burning.

Seems to me you with biotabs after about 20 days you need to give 10ml Orgatrex every 10 days (give or take) to not experience micronutes issues.

Pro soil mix contain sea weed for extra micronutes, you can pick it up at the beach.

Run off makes no sense if the soil is new but I allways moisten it up real good the first time cause seedlings don't have roots in the bottom of the pot anyway, that's where it can be soggy but two inch of clay pebbles in the bottom of the pot will handle that. Don't think that is nute burn btw.

Thanks. I have been doing a lot of research and maybe the best option for micronutrients to to add Azomite or this EDTA mix to my organic soil?

If not then locally i can get fulvic acid, humic acid, seaweed (dry or wet prob), kelp extract and maybe more, but would have no idea how much of each to add to the soil so thinking of Azomoite or EDTA mix unless anyone says otherwise? another option is this EDTA trace mineral stuff i found too.

azomite or this EDTA chelate stuff? what is best for my organic situation?

smacks of a micronute defc., looks like Zn to me, but something else in play with that interveinal chlorosis,... a common issue with Biotabs that I've seen,... plant next to her is showing the same, maybe S too with that yellowing pattern w/o necrosis,... I'd dose up on epsoms (1tsp/L) and look into picking up a micronute supp', like Earth Juice Microblast... this has plenty of S in it too,....

@Waira what you reckon mate? does this look like a reasonable substitute? i have grabbed 2 bags to test out on my next grow. If suitable, this might be useful for you to recommend in future to others in my Biotabs position

Here is my latest test at day 37-38. Hoping you are right and im seeing micro nute issues, which makes sense cos i use RO water and Biotabs etc..

 

[Waira]

...not really, it's a full soil amendment, not "targeted" to a micronute defc. but a shotgun blast of nutes,... Azomite is way too slow, the Micronic I don't know either, though it is nicely loaded and chelated,... Are you in Australia? If so, I can get a premier soil mate, @hecno , to chime in on sources for this... Check out his grows in Organic growing section, he's a total DIY soil builder and is crushing plant after plant with his home made goodness! He' knows the nute ropes better than anybody here for Down Under....
BTW, how close are your lights?

@Waira I have chatted with IndoorTropics early today , I put him onto a product by Bloom Advanced Floriculture [ Auss company -- Sea Minerals
