[Bill284]

Hi Bill, all good thank you, hope you’re doing great

I gave pk 13/14 for a week

Then this past Friday mixed the following full strength:

Sensi bloom / canna boost

What should I do

Your in hydro right?
What temp is your res?
Ph?
Do you use calmag ever?

Yes hydro temp around 24 Celsius
I measured the ph of the used reservoir
After I started adding boost, it was 6.8
Never used calmag …

Ok you need a lower ph in hydro.
5.8 ish is better for complete nutrient uptake.
Also 24 c. is a touch high for proper nutrient uptake aswell.
As I'm not a hydro specialist I'm going to call @Rexer
Hey Amigo what do you think?
Temp seems high to me.
Any recommendations?
Thanks.

I sent him a message.
He knows Hydro better than me.
But I'm sure it's something to do with the temp and pH.
I think 18c is appropriate but I'm not 100% so let's wait till he can give us a hand.
Talk soon.

Good day @NileOG
nice setup, and great job so far!

Ok you need a lower ph in hydro.
5.8 ish is better for complete nutrient uptake.

Agreed, at the 6.8 PH he would have had some nutrients unavailable. 5.8 (or 5.5) is the best starting point. Then do not correct the PH until it naturally hits around 6.3....then reset the PH.

Also 24 c. is a touch high for proper nutrient uptake aswell.

Agreed, its a touch high. But depending as long as either H202 or benifical microbes are present, it's doable.
I aim for 19C-20C.
Nothing below 17C, as the plant cant uptake nutrients properly at that temp.
Many growers do aim for the 18C as you suggested. I always suggest at least 19C to give a small buffer away from 17C (if it gets too cold, it will look and act like a lockout making you chase your tail).

Above that 24C and you become close to having hot soup. I've done it- using copious amounts of H202. Not something I would recommend.

The other benifical part of a cooler reservoir is that at cooler temps, water holds onto oxygen better.

Thanks for the tag Bill.

My first recommendation is the addition of Cal mag.

I'd also possibly lower the PK boost. It may be too strong, the issue(s) were noticed soon after it was introduced.


And Nile, I also agree with Bill, I wouldn't defoliate any more leaves. Don't even pull the damaged ones until you have the problem fixed. Otherwise she will start pulling nutrients from undamaged leaves.
The damaged leaves will not heal.

Thank you very much guys wow really don’t what to say, ok I’m on it and I’ll update you

Thank you very much guys wow really don’t what to say, ok I’m on it and I’ll update you

No problem!
I should mention, when searching for your cal mag, I've found it best to go with a low Nitrogen one. General Hydronics makes a 1-0-0, and so far I've had the best success with that.

Keep us posted, and don't be shy to tag or PM me!

 

[NileOG]

Ok guys, @Bill284 @Rexer

The nights update: lowered PH, cooled the space.

Adding epsom salt tomorrow..

Don’t know if it might be strain related?

Found this: (second image)

She looks happy

Thank you guys

Thanks so much Rex.
I appreciate you jumping in and giving correct advice.
I keep my feed at 18c but I'm in pots.
It's good to hear from a knowledgeable Hydro guy.
Rex to the Rescue.
Take care.

About the epsom salt? it’s the only thing close to cal mag available locally ..

 

[NileOG]

diluted the epsom salt earlier today and mixed it in

She looks like I haven’t seen her before

@Bill284 possibly a growers keen eye allowed the perfect intervention at the perfect moment @Rexer

 

[NileOG]

So far so go .. I’ll sum up the guts to post an up to date image soon ..

I like that way u started out. Intermediate . Lmao. I no nothing period. Lmao. Don't let them see u sweat bro.

Here’s one with filter

Hi @Bill284

Just a quick question if you don’t mind,
Coming up on week 8 since seed and the plant is consuming a worryingly small amount of water? Does that say anything?

Thanks

What are your temps and rh?
Is the pot sitting on concrete or tile?
It's much too early to be reducing her nutrient uptake.

Well, some sort of recovery can be seen ..

But it took me far too long to realize the PH meter is broken

Is it close enough to chop.

10-15 days left based on the seeds packaging

Temp now 20 degrees C - PH 5.8 RH 40%
The Aerogarden tank is sitting on tile
Using only advanced nutrients base bloom nutrients - half strength

Anyway, I’ve shifted my hopes towards the blue sunset sherbet cutting, which seems to be doing very well.

I’ll share a photo when the sun shines on it later today
