Hello all, i have recently started a grow and i am pretty new to this. I think i am having a nutrient deficiency but am not sure. I will try to list all of the growing materials i have used thus far, and will include photographs.
The seeds i have are all from bags, but it was all higher quality bud(exotics/sensimia).
My soil medium is MG organic gardening soil with a low NPK value mixed approximately 60/20/20 MG/Bovung manure humus/perlite.
I added approximately 4 cups of dolomite lime to the mix and it totalled around 2 SQ/Y of medium.
After applying the lime i used a disposable PH kit and everything seems to be normal, ph between 6.5-7.
I also added a small approximated amount of bone meal and blood meal to the mix, just to supplement what seemed to be a very NPK lacking medium without nute burning.
I did a small fertilizing last night using a 50/50 of blood and bone meal, bone meal is 6.9.0 NPK and the blood is 12.0.0, and applied this mixture to the top of the soil around half a teaspoon per 8oz cup.
I have 3 2700k CFL's with 1600 lumens rated each on the sproutlings atm, and plan on building a box sporting between 8-10 with a mix of 2700k and 6500k CFL's. My box will also include multiple 80-120mm PC fans for airflow and ventilation, and a panda poly 6m lining.
Im not sure if it is a problem at all but the true leaves seem to be drooping and some have slight browning at the edges, as well as the bottom round leaves yellowing. Also the stems of my first 3 sproutlings are all purple.
