Hi everyone,
First time growing and I am running into issues with what seems to be calcium deficiency. Most likely due to low Ph, I believe.
My problem is that I cannot get my ph to come up on these plants. I have flushed with tap water. Ours is 7.0 at the tap and average analysis is 205ppm. 2 gallons of water through 3-1 gallon pots. Maybe I didn’t do enough? I switched to nutes at 1/8 strength and have flushed at least 5 gallons over 2 days through them with no luck raising ph in the coco. I’m using a soil ph meter and getting as low as 4.9 this morning on one plant.
Growing in coco/ perlite. Using fox farm nutes (grow big, big bloom, tiger bloom). I have even tried cal mag and water with no luck.
2 of these plants are 29 days into bloom and I don’t want to lose anymore harvest than I’m already going to.
A little broke at the moment as well so any home remedies are greatly appreciated!
Current conditions:
36x24x53 grow tent
Vivosun 400w super hps
80 degrees / 46% RH daytime
73 degrees /55-60% RH night
Water 3 times daily with 1/4 strength fox farm nutes stated above.
Thanks for any insight to help fix this.
