    Need help diagnosing issue. Nutrient burn or deficiency?

    Hey appreciate the advice a lot. Sorry for the late reply, life catches up sometimes but after reading your method I'm certainly intrigued.. Since I am running Lucas I usually just hit it with the calmag - and GH Micro:Bloom at 1:2 ratio - then PH. Ill certainly look into getting some silica and...

    Need help diagnosing issue. Nutrient burn or deficiency?

    Thanks for the app suggestion, Ill definitely try that out! I mean, Ive had success in the past using the settings Im currently at, but I will definitely look into my situation more because like you said, its only a vague understanding I have here. It would be nice to dial it in perfectly rather...

    Need help diagnosing issue. Nutrient burn or deficiency?

    Yea, my first grow which was 6 plants was soil + dry amendments but after that I've run every grow with coco + lucas formula with results that Im very satisfied with. The coco I used is supposed to be pre buffered, but I did run 4 gal each of a light nutrient solution through both pots. I...

    Need help diagnosing issue. Nutrient burn or deficiency?

    Darn, now that you mention it that might be it. Had the Mars Hydro TSW2000 light 12 inches from pots/tops of plants. I literally upped the light from 75 to 100% about 4 days ago. I never wouldve guessed that might be the issue since its happening from the bottom up but after looking around it...

    Need help diagnosing issue. Nutrient burn or deficiency?

    Hey all. I’m into my 6th grow or so and having some issues roughly 3 weeks in. My past grows have all gone fairly smoothly considering my lack of experience and aside from some hiccups and stupid mistakes, I never really experienced too much difficulty with the nutrients but cal mag has always...

    Day 13 after sprout. Extremely slow/no growth?

    Thanks! Yeah, I can see why an experienced grower with a bigger setup might not want to waste time with potential runts, but I’m in this for the experience and since I’m so new I figure what better way to learn than this. It also feels much more rewarding and like a greater accomplishment to...

    Day 13 after sprout. Extremely slow/no growth?

    Figured I’d post an update for anyone interested. After testing my PH pen I realized it was significantly off so I calibrated it. I think it was a combination of the PH and underwatering. After flushing the medium with a light PHd feeding, they started to thrive. Here they are now.

    Seedling sprouted with NO cotyledons. Anybody seen this before?

    As the post title suggests, I have a seedling here now that sprouted without its embryonic leaves. It's not like they're ripped off, they're just plain not there and instead there is just a clean little knuckle. It's been about 4 days and it hasn't sprouted any new leaves, pretty obvious it...

    Day 13 after sprout. Extremely slow/no growth?

    Alright welp I think I discovered the culprit. While testing my water tonight I realized I hadnt calibrated my PH pen in a minute. Went out a recalibrated both my PH pens. Turns out my pens were both completely off, almost 1 whole point off. So I assume the PH of the water I was feeding these...

    Day 13 after sprout. Extremely slow/no growth?

    Thanks for the responses. I think I'm going to try to use this as a learning experience and attempt to nurse these back to health. My last grow I accidentally turned off my heaters oscillator and burned one of my +Speed auto seedlings to a crisp. Basically brought the growth to a screeching...

    Day 13 after sprout. Extremely slow/no growth?

    Hey all. Im on my fourth grow right now. These seedlings are around 13 days from sprout and honestly haven't really grown much at all after around the first week. Im pretty new to growing, but I havent changed anything I've been doing in my past couple successful coco grows (tried soil first)...

    New grower here. Need some help with my first set of seedlings (Very slow growth/Blotchy leaves)

    Hey there, sure Ill give a quick update. So that smaller Ghost OG that was flowering super early ended up pretty nice and frosty, smelled delicious. Chopped it and screwed up the drying process so I ended up with slightly sweet smelling hay that I smoked already. Did its job, but was a fairly...

    1st grow ever. Dealing with pests.

    I use dry amendments for fertilizer so idk if I could just add them to water like that which is why I was asking if I should top dress again or not but I’ll hold off for now. As for the mites, I’ve looked up and down all the plants and only found them In the soil and in the branch of that one...

    1st grow ever. Dealing with pests.

    Is there anything I can do like flushing to lower the ppm or will just riding it out with plain watering naturally do that? I moved the fan too.

    1st grow ever. Dealing with pests.

    Haha, definitely had my fair share of freak outs over this grow so Id say so. So I was able to get a PH and PPM of two of my plants. Since I was planning on watering some of the plants tomorrow anyways, I decided to go around and check if any were ready now. The flowering plant still maybe has...

    1st grow ever. Dealing with pests.

    Got it, I plan on cutting back. Like I said, Ive only done 2 waterings with the molasses so far anyways so Im hoping its not too bad. Couldn't tell ya the lux, I only know what the manufacturers par readings were, but they recommend 18"-24" for veg and 12" for bloom? Humidity bounces from...

    1st grow ever. Dealing with pests.

    Im using a Mars Hydro TSW2000 at 100% at 18" above the canopy. I appreciate both of yalls help. Hmm okay. I did go out and get some Dr. Earth Bud & Bloom recently for my next dry amendment attempt. Do you think I should feed at all again or should I just ride this one out?

    1st grow ever. Dealing with pests.

    Top dressed the soil around day 35. That was maybe 15 days ago give or take. Hmm okay, Ive only watered with that molasses mixture twice so far since I started late in the cycle, about right after I top dressed them, but Ill cut back. I just got my TDS meter in the mail a couple days ago so...

    1st grow ever. Dealing with pests.

    Really appreciate all your help. I chose Happy Frog because I've heard its a bit less hot than the Ocean Forest. Off the back of the bag it says 0.30%-0.30%-0.05% N-P-K with 1% Calcium. Im using 1 tbsp of molasses per gallon of water roughly once a week. My next grow Im planning on coco and...
