I think it might have been ph, i let it dry out way too much and then I watered with water that had been sitting for a while and I didnt ph it because ive been busy and just wanted to water it really quick
Yeh probably is pH. Have you tested it? All my clones were pale, and suffering from lockout. Ph was 5.7 in soil. I had not been pHing the water at all. I use the water from my dehumidifier and it's usually always 7.0 but the nutes were dropping it pretty low. Mixed in a little lime and watered em and they came back pretty well. Will usually take 3 to 5 days to get it back. Easier to raise it, than lower it.
Oh damn, I usually use my untreated well water that comes out at 7.4ph and I always seem to have mineral build up and get burning issues and I use gaia green dry amendments, i think that water has too much shit in it lol so this time im cutting it with distilled water and thats bringing it down to 7ph, i brought it down to 6.5 when I watered yesterday after the transplant
6.5 is good. But like LC said. You want to go by the new growth. If that's looking good you should be ok. Well water should be fine, have you tested it to see what the ppm/EC is?
Did a slurry test to see where im at
Used 6.6ph, ppm of the water was 188
Results were 5.9ph and 890ppm.
New growth looks pretty good so I think ill just water with a little bit higher ph when I water next
Take those burnt leaves off that causes her more trouble trying to use them still then what they worth
The will is strong with this one lol
Haha yes it is
Do you like the Gaia fertilizer? I’ve been wanting to try it
My last grow was my first time using it and I loved it, I screwed up and forgot I was top dressing every 2 weeks instead of 4 and I gave it a full dose in early flower and burnt the shit out of it, that was my bad, before that the plant was super healthy and I really liked just watering instead of mixing nutes in the water, excited for this run now I won't make the same mistake lol
Where I grow outside I’d would like some thing I could put on it and let the rain water it instead of everytime I feed I have to water too. When it rains I can’t feed the plant
Definitely the way to go, stuff is kinda pricey but its worth it
Is it more pricey then fox farms?
That’s what I use right now
The upfront cost yes, I had been using fox farm bottles aswell before I switched, you can get the all purpose and bloom for $60 on Amazon those are 4 pound bags, and definitely want to get some worm castings but thats not expensive
I watch a guy on YouTube that use Gaia and it looks like for door use it might do better
