Yep I already Screw up (yellow tips slightly turning down)

[growingmicro]

Yep It's my first grow and I already screw up again... it's the first time but I guess it's going to happen often.

Made a banana tea and diluted with some water and pour it on ma baby, I sprinkled some unused coffee grounds because it's suposed to be a good source of nutes and help with keeping bugs away.

but now I see what I done...
the horror... the drama... the tragedy.. not suited for fainted hearts...


what can I do to prevent this of being a real issue?

thanks n advance

Wat ph was wat u fed it, also if in soil u shouldn't be feeding yet and in coco u really need a ph pen aswell as an ec meter.

Used coffee grounds are ok, but not unused. scrape out those grounds if on top, give your plant just water for a few days

If you are growing in soil you don't need to add anything but a couple sprays/mist of water first weeks... 3rd week you then add nutes and feed..... In coco you feed straight away. Ph and ec pen is needed for coco.

Thanks for all your answers.

Yea, I know I jumped the gun here.. and it's not an excuse but 'm pretty new at this, so first, don't know really what I'm doing, and, I want to see things happening, not really this though..

I'm planing on soil with perlite, it's universal substract and it's supposed to have a 5.5 to 6.5 ph.

Ok about Ph the last readings of the water supplier was around 7.5-8.

I bought something to measure the PH but I think it's either broken or a piece of chart (or maybe IDK how to work with it).
it always say its on 7 as attachment and the other measurements seems off too.

Temperatures are between 23º and 27º.

Light is cfl and its about 15cm-20cm over the plant.

So if I had used the coffee first it wouldnt be such a problem? ( not saying for a 2 week baby)

do you think I would need to flush?
or what should I do?

Get that ph down to 6.5 to 7ph otherwise you could have problems no matter wat u do if the plant can't pull nutes from soil there will be obvious problems. As far as watering also be careful as over watering can and will cause problems I use a turkey baster. Now a ? about ur ph measuring equipment is it one u stick in the soil or is it a ph pen bc u want a ph pen so u can ph the water and feed once u get far enuff into the grow. I wouldn't water much just enough to flush the roots which are small so not much needed. Lift ur pot right now to see how heavy it is that is the best way to see if and when it needs a drink.
