Hydro , just uped the MC yesterday, looks to be progressing. Was still drinking and nutrients uptake. This fresh 4 gallons from yesterday shows no ec or water used .
Looks like the upper part of the plant and resembles a lot like Iron def.
Thanks MrSauga I looked all through the deficiency’s and iron and k potassium were the two that compared ! Hoping the extra gram I added yesterday starts showing up . This girl been great , I took it from under a 600 watt vipar spectra to the kind led xl750 when it started was why I thought light .
Keep in mind that adding more MC wont likely fix an Iron def. It's most likely an uptake issue from overwatering, bad pH or high levels of other nutrients such as P or Ca.
It’s been stable with the ph ! Let’s hope the fresh bucket will straighten out. On the last bucket the ph started at 6.1 and in three days went to 6.4 so I phed it down to 5.9 and by the time I changed the water and nutrients it was at 6.1. I expect it to do the same by tomorrow it was 6.24 with the blue lab today.
With hydro, Fe is best at 6.0 or below. Anything higher than 6 and you stand the chance of reducing it's ability to uptake the nutrient.
I’ll head out there and bring it down to the normal 5.8 instead of waiting!
How many gram per gallon of mc are you using. I don’t believe it’s ph. Ph has no bearing with mc. And all I’ve learned is it won’t lock out. Mc is uptook different than other nutes. Amylia has posted research about all this. I say raise you lights to 35 inches. If your in hydro are you keeping an eye on your water temp?
What are you using for water ? And how old is that plant?
