Rember that the runoff is a combination of the water in ph and the soil ph. I belive that the metric is something like if you put 5.5ph water in and the water out is 6.2 your soil ph is adding the difference to the water out. In this example it would be soil ph of 6.9. So if your soil is 6.9 and...

When I stick the soil meter in it still says around 7. I haven't watered again yet because the soil was still damp and heavy from the flushing. I will try the botanicare calmag+ foliar feed and keep watching. Overall I think the new grow looks good. The only thing I was conerned about was the...

That appears to be the consensus. Thank you for sharing your experience. Fingers crossed calmag+ does the trick

It is in the mail :)

So I have a new leaf color, burgundy. Little concerned because it is on the tips of the new growth. Derived from the same issue?

Here is the soil I used. It is possible that the ladies don't like it because of the lack of perlite. I am definitely using different soil next grow.

Good call. I actually calibrated it a week ago.

I think I used the wrong soil from the start and this has be the source of some issue since transplant. I was also using a salt based nute and have switched that to one that is not salt based and has additional microbes for the soil. This is partially why I was thinking that maybe a transplant...

They are definitely drinking. The soil gets dry every 3 to 4 days now. I haven't let them sit in water nor have i watered when it is moist (other then the flushing i did 2 days ago). I will do a little exploration and see if I can look at root health. Great to know about the o2 Stat. I have been...

Silly question time... how do you test for roots without pulling them out of the soil? And I ph with Apple cider vinegar now. I was using ph down.

I seam to have been able to keep them at bay for the moment. Concerned once I switch to flower that the mites and powder mildew come back. Battling a soil ph issue now so I will find out once that is fixed and I switch to Flower.

How did you resolve your soil pH problem? These ladies look beautiful.

I can get some worm casting. I will also brew a nute tea at 1/4 strength to use in a foliar spray. How often do you recommend flushing? One of the ladies was super droopy after the flush last night so I didn't do another flush today. I was thinking of picking up a foliarspray that was more...

More pics. 2 epsom salt sprays, I flushed 3 times with 5.5ph water and no ph change to the runoff

So I flushed with 5.5 water 3 times and am not getting a decrease in PH. I also did an epsom salt spray yesterday and will do again tomorrow at lights out. Any chance I should just repot using different soil? They have been in the current soil for 6weeks. Once I get the current issue corrected I...

Thank you. So do you recommend zinc and iron over magnesium? I can get a multi spray but want to try and target the specific deficiency and don't want to cause other issues while I am trying to fix another.

Foliar fed with epsom salt today. I will do that a few times while I try to bring the ph of the soil down a little. It has been pretty stubborn at right around 7. Greatly appreciate all your advice and support.

I am growing in soil.
