Whats wrong with my plant...help plzz....nute burn or a def..?

[droskee420]

ahhhh that may be adding up to your issue... watering ph should be same as soil 6.3 - 6.4 if yu been watering like that all along... you'rew carrying it down over time

often when you compare plant issues that are a result of ph and the chart... it becomes clear why an issue is showing up.


ton of other good links here: https://www.autoflower.org/f7/announcements.html

Good info...thanks for the link.

Yea I don't understand how your runoff is that high with what's going in is that low?

yeah, makes me think he used a soil ph meter that may be innacurate...

then i'd say ph is high... and that the runoff reflects that especially with the water in ph.

 

[droskee420]

hmmm... so runoff is 6.6 6.7?

how did you measure soil ph?

if runoff at 6.6 - 6.7 then waterin 5.9 - 6.0 should be good.

puzzling




oh... well judging by the potassium def I see... maybe you are jst ready to go full nutes...

see in the tips of the leaves? thats the beginnings of potassium... but I wanted to make sure it wasnt ph related so we wouldnt steer you further down the wrong path.

measured with soil ph meter....im thinkin nitrogen def. and or cal/mag...

Yea idk...jus saying what the testing devices are telling me ...this is also my first grow so i dnt have anything to compare to or any experience

I'd tend to distrust the soil meter then... do you have any other way to check your water meter for calibration? ph litmus paper or fluid? can you re-calibrate just to be sure?

also, what kind of meter for soil? (some are cheap)


cal / mag I'd say yes ... nitro... maybe a hair... if you have 5-6 weeks to go I wouldnt be afraid to give it a little more nitrogen.....

if you check that link called "basic deficiencies" in the link set i gave you... thats the best way to trace it out.

and if you cant trust the soil meter or discover it defective... then you definetly have a high ph in your soil... which is whats locking out potassium....

the soil meter is called rapid test...was cheap about 15 bux and the water meter is the standard 3 to 5 drop tester...also cheap

ok... i have a radiptest... and it works great for me... but ive heard a lt of reports of them failing... and since its inconsistent with everything else... i'd trust the water meter... and keep adjusting soil ph down ttill you get runoff in the 6.5 range.

in fact... best bet at this point might just be a plain water flush for 2X the pot volume with ph 6.2 water... then wait a day or 2 for that to dry out a bit... then reset your feed schedule.

i would just hate to see you lose her now.

i might give that a try...im going to wait and see what happens over the nxt day or so....i also watered with just a little big bloom and liquid karma and superthrive this morning with a ph of 6.0-6.1 so im going to see how she looks tomorrow morning then go from there...i appreciate all the input and feedback and yes losing my first girl at this point in her life would really really suck
