Hello, trying out GH cocotek line and I'm getting these issues, see images!
Coco/Perlite @ 75/25 (all new)
PH 5.8 - 6.3
Nutrients are GH CocoTek A+B Grow @ 7.5 ml
Well Water, intial 0.3 EC
They have been given a tea once (caps) and some 3-0-2 Fish fertilizer.
I also did add some botanicare calmg @ 2ml/gal twice.
Thoughts?
They kinda have that veg under t5 and switched to hps recently look. What kind of lighting and what is total ec after mixing fert.?
do the reddish stems feel hard, almost stick like? and how often are you watering?
The wifi cut I have been running for a few years will do the woody red stem if under fed, overwater, too cold or rootbound . What size pots are those in? They look way too large for the plant size. Have they recently been transplanted. I'm guessing roots are drowning but could be a multitude of causes. Too cold when lights off ?
Probably just a PH problem or they are to cold. Check your runoff PH next watering. Are you using RO water?
I agree that they look too cold. But I wouldn't be too worried about those purple stems, it looks like the whole plant has that coloration, not just the petioles. The plants I've run that have that through the whole plant aren't deficient, it's just how they look. Some of those plants pictured look *just* like the BoG LSD I ran last year, damn near. And she was one of my best producers.
Interesting, I really would have assumed the plants at pH 6.0 would be the healthiest.
I'm running the Cocotek right now with well water at 0.05 EC, and have had to supplement calcium during veg on two light feeders. With your well water EC being at 0.3 your situation might be different. Have you had the well water analyzed?
I have now got the RO working working again so I will be supplementing a bit of Calmg.
Have you gone higher than the 7.5/7.5 for bloom? What else have you added in flower with this line?
I did notice this post is a mth old now, and hopefully you got it figured...but want to comment as I had plants looking EXACTLY like this(like shit) just recently. First time in over a decade.Thoughts?
This is spot onI did notice this post is a mth old now, and hopefully you got it figured...but want to comment as I had plants looking EXACTLY like this(like shit) just recently. First time in over a decade.
I was dickin' around with "coco specific" ratios and well....What fixed them was going back to GH 3part @ about 1200-1300ppm and/or Lucas at the same....6-6.2ph. Flush it thru...like 100% runoff, or more. Use a wetter like yucca(best) or sm90(don't need much, like .2ml/ltr)...Humic at 1/4 to 1/2 strength and a B1 at full dose.....and the GH Bio Root sure is a decent additive(half strength again)
Ditch the CalMag products, seriously. Use a bit of epsom here and there...but everytime I've tried those specific products, things head south.
I am under the big lots tho...less light, do the same, but about 850-900ppm should do it.
Temps low 80's...RH 50-60% if you can. Then wait. Make sure to dry them down so the roots really go searchin'
Foliar once with yucca and a high quality seaweed
