stop the ac water...if the pH of that water is as low as you say than something is going on with that AC water and I'd toss it outside!

Baba ill go take a proper ph reading right now...brb

well in my case i shit canned everything in 707 , i always find when you have an issue and start playing catch up your end result will suffer , poorer yield, more money spent on power .. by the time you get them back on track you could have new starts in place with a higher chance of final success ..

Not what I wanted to hear :(

I took that advice when you diagnosed my broad mites and it was the right thing to do but damn that was painful. I'm gonna hang in there a couple weeks first and hopefully resolve it. Would E20 help?

The ph is 6.5 on the AC water...I think. I'm gonna put a cup under it to get a fresh read because the bucket could be dirty.

Looks like phosphorus def.
double check PH, calibrate PH pen, refresh res, check run off for ppm/ph, check rootzone for health/pests

Is this the only plant on that res effected?

Thx Cort I was also thinking Phosphorus after reading up last night.

I forgot to mention to you all I've been feeding nothing but teas that I make from scratch...perhaps I should go back to using a base???

Is that dirty bucket food grade? A/C and dehuey water tends to be reactive. I seem to remember a very fluctuating pH value when I used water from my dehuey. Also, HVAC guys usually recommend to not use that water with a new A/C for a few weeks. Time to start eliminating variables Dan. Hopefully its not that soil.

Fucking shit! What should I do? Damn I just started on 707 10 days ago :(


Pull them all out, wash them gently. Put them back in to 0ppm coco and hydtroton or chunky perlite 50/50. Get a pump and a short cycle timer. Water for 5-10 seconds every hour with 1.0 EC through veg. Flush weekly. Don't look back.

And after you wash them all dip them in some root pack tea.

Stop using AC water. Look inside your AC and see all the fuckin mold and shit growing in there. Unless you are using a mini uv for sterilization I guarantee it's there.

Residual oils of manufacture in your AC water?
What else would cause a ph reading of 6.5 from condensate?
If this is it, then things might clear up after the chemical insult is fully ingested.

I just told you homie.

Go get a bag of 0ppm coco at the shop today, and a couple small bags of hydrocorn. Or, get some new soil. Fuck the hydro shop go to armstrong and get some bd white seed starter soil.

You need to rinse those plants off. I have done this a ton of times when transplanting. It will be ok as long as you are gentle. Do it under the tap with a pasta strainer so you don't get dirt down the drain.

Replant them and water them with a light dose of food. NO AC WATER, and use the tap water. It's fine it just needs more P acid to bring the pH down.

What do you have on hand for food?

my guess is micros and ph, if thats not it then i would possibly check the quality of whats goin into the teas, and/or the soil

I don't have much helpful info but it kinda looks like u turned the lights on 2 soon after u sprayed them.. I'm saying that b'cuz I juss did this a few days ago & lost some leafs kinda like u did..

Also OBS is on 2 sumthin.. Last month I got a few cherry pie leafs that kinda did like ur leafs but not as bad.. It was more spotted like the inner parts of ur leafs not as bad as ur leaf edges.. It happened on cherry pie rite when I placed the clone in the 707.. I got reddish brown polkadots on the leafs.. I usually grow in coco so I figured I'm not giving the plants what they need with plain water so I started 2 feed her.. Slowly it juss went away & I still have no clue what it was.. I juss figured a feeding issue but now that OBS posted his info I'm kinda wondering now..
