Any of you soil guys know the problem?
Any of you soil guys know the problem?
Did you just repot the plant? Or was it started in FF.
Are the other plants that are fine the same strain?
No answers just some ?'s to narrow it down.
Most cal-mag deficiency's have been reported in the 2nd. or 3 week blooming with FF but some farmers are using it everytime they water. 1tsp. to the gallon is what i have read here. I'm using FF and a few days behind you and i have my cal-mag ready even though the shop said i wouldn't need it i see to many farmers here using it.
I've been using the FFOF on and off for 6 years or so and have never had a problem with it being too "hot". I use it by itself for seedling and mother plants but add the chunky perlite when using with my production plants just to add more drainage.
I asked this question a couple of months ago to hydro shop employees and fellow caregivers and the unanimous answer was No, it will fry the little roots !! The plant may survive but most won't !!
I was told to use Sunshine mix #1 for clones and seedlings then transplant in a few weeks !!

edit:
"I never use FFOF straight."
Oh yeah, never straight FFOM soil..you gotta use perilite, ? and other additives ?
