Thanks Postman. Yeah, so I already have a fairly good idea of what the problem is, just need to figure out the cause. I believe it is exactly as you say - P isn't being taking up. Whether its a lockout issue alone, or under feeding I am unsure. I monitor my levels everyday and shit has been been out of wack for little while now. Basically i'm dropping anywhere from .5-1.0 pH everyday. ppms have remained at 420 accross the board. I'm thinking that the pH drop probably has something to do with fungus gnat issues im having. The little buggers are flying all over my hydroton and netpots inside the lids. Pretty sure the larvae are munching on the roots and could be effecting my pH? Been waiting on caps bennies to arrive to get that BTI in there and some more fortifying microbes. Hoping that this will help solve the dropping pH.
My feeding regimen has always been on the low side I think. Tried dilligently to always tend towards lower than higher. ppm has never been above 450. Since my feeding has been conservative...it makes it difficult to know for sure whether my problems are from a lockout only, due to low pH, or from underfeeding. The room drank 40g last night so at least theyre still drinking. How does 40g/day sound to other UC'ers out there?
