What’s up growmies I’m on my second grow and I’ve ran into a lot more problems this grow than I did the first grow. I got 7 plants going right now and they are 3 months and 4 months old. They are Tiny. They have been through all the stress you can think of from being moved house to house to me being unable to see them for 2 weeks and then being bone dry and completely wilted. I should have let them die and started a new grow when I was prepared fully but
So moral of the story is the first 3 months of their lives they were completely misused and abused. Had septoria, had bug problems, environment problems etc.
Now I’ve got them into their final homes. They are in one gallon pots in a mix of fox farm ocean forest. The mix is soil from my last grow cut with a fresh bag of ocean forest. The soil from my last grow was flushed numerous times and the plants lived their whole life in the soil so it’s essentially just plain soil I’m using to cut the fresh fox farm soil.
Finally now that everything is fixed and their water schedule is down and the disease and pests are gone the plants have had some explosive growth. Suddenly, every single one of them is shooting out very lime green/ yellow leaves. I gave them a dose of Alaska’s fish fertilizer 5:1:1 at 1/4 of the recommended dose. Which was about 5ml to the gallon. Plants continue to grow great getting very big and filling out nicely but still showing the lime green new growth. That first dose was 5 days ago. They got another dose at half strength 8ml to gallon 2 days ago. Still growing strong and fast but all yellow. Am I not using enough nitrogen?
Temps are at 73 during the day and 69 at night with humidity sitting around 60 65
Soil ph when dry is at a 7 I add nutes to distilled water and the water will sit at a 5.5-6.5 ph. (I don’t have an accurate tester I can’t afford one currently). When I add water to my soil the soil ph will drop to a 6.2-6.6.
On these pics there is splotches and things I know this. Some if from neem oil spray. Some is light burn some is from a lockout I had or bug problems I dont need help on those because they are all old. I’m specifically focused on my new growth. I just haven’t cut out the ugly leaves yet. Any help to tell me what’s going on would be greatly appreciated!
Also some of my new growth leaves are praying not sure why this is either
