The leaf coloration is a phosphorous deficiency. I only scanned the thread. It sounds like you're using organic nutrients. If so, pH in the rhizosphere isn't usually a matter for concern. Just nurture the microbes. Have you added mycorrhizae?

It's microbes that matter not ph with gaia, it's completely different than synthetic nutes. I highly recommend looking into the rhizosphere and soil science. Good books are teaming with microbes, teaming with fungi, teaming with bacteria. Those are good, build a soil eeb site has good free...

None. Organic fertilizers are often slow releasers of the nutrients and need to ferment or compost for a while to get the nutrients to a level that is beneficial for the plant. At the same time the soil gets balanced and homogenized and a rhizosphere forms.

That’s what I’m trying 🥲

...Roots Organics Trinity Bio Catalyst is a blend of select organic compounds designed for maximum effect as a catalyst for plant and rhizosphere nutrient uptake and growth. Trinity is a universal nutrient supplement that can substantially increase yields and enhance the highest quality...

...foal is to read the plant and adjust nutrients and lighting to assist in proper Ph stabilizing. You take the position of controlling the “rhizosphere” in hydroponics. Soil does all this in its own processes coupled with the roots excretion of acids. We see it in hydro as Ph swings when things...

pH in the rhizosphere off...I was hoping to get confirmation. How would I bring it back to normal without adding more calcium? The only way I know is lime and that is calcium. Perhaps If i take a core sample with a length of copper tube and make a slurry it will give some idea of the pH at...

...famous plethora of microbes...over watering on top of this leads to the microbes excessively eating through certain minerals in the soil/rhizosphere and as a result, yielding larger amounts of plant available nitrogen. Hence the not having added nutes but somehow are seeing excessive nitrogen...

...mentioned it. I wouldn't even suggest it to non-organic growers. I guess I think of it as moisture management, rather than watering, with the goal of optimizing the rhizosphere and mycorrhizae. I'm mostly curious to see if it works. I'll let you know if it doesn't. If it does, I'll patent it. 😉

I do a living soil myself just no cover crop, I mulch and add bugs via great unscreened worm castings. Glad you came by the farm, we have some other living soil folks as well

Thanks!!! Yes, it would be better to have large beds, the bigger the better. Thanks to the rhizosphere that is formed, plants can transmit nutrients to each other, simply a beautiful symbiosis. It is in my plans to soon build 2 beds of 200cm x 60cm x 40cm. Thank you for taking your time to...

ok cool, didn’t want you to get offended haha you know you probably gave yourself the gnats with watering like that,..

Again, look at the roots website. Trinity is kelp, molasses, and wetting agent. Seems to be a microbe food, similar to recharge without the microbes? combined with their buddah grow (Nitrogen rich guano) or the buddah bloom (phosphorus rich guano and phosphate rock) it makes an organic liquid...

Anyone actually growing should be reading the labels with the right info on it, like on the package. Not relying on the description of what a company says a product does. Now it just sounds like you're reaching for some reason. Not sure what you have against Roots Organic, but clearly you don't...

...powerful root stimulator ensures explosive growth of the roots, rids the plants of brown root & root diseases and provides an excellent rhizosphere (root environment) in soil, coco or hydroponic substrates. Roots Excelurator creates a film around the roots, which functions as a kind of...

A slurry test is never a bad idea when you are diagnosing a plant that’s acting up. Ph sounds like a potential culprit. Usually not an issue in organics, but depends on soil additives.

...with the other nutrients you mentioned. I supplement with Azomite, gypsum and Epsom salt during nearly the whole grow. I use either Mykos or Great White for the rhizosphere. So, I can advise about the supplements I do use. It also can be helpful to talk about soil amendments like perlite, etc.

Dude that solid feeling is your roots, don't mess with them. Definitely never do that again ever please no more squeezing, for the sake of your rhizosphere. But that being said, best of luck! 👍

...using something called Mykos. They add beneficial microbes to the soil. They're fungus that helps the roots. Creating a healthy root zone (rhizosphere) is the essence of organic growing. Now we're talking about soil mixtures. It's a complex topic by itself. I think you're off to a good start.

Yes. Each week I water with Root Magic myco+I know this SIP was just about dead when I got it, So I added compost tea. I have a cold compost pile that is 2-3 years old. I brought in a shovel full from the bottom and let it warm up for a day and made tea+black strap. I bubbled it for 24 hours...
