I'm doing good man, after 3 months I'm finally catching up financially. I've been working 6 days a week for 3 months so I'm finally starting to get ahead.
Garden is looking shi-i-i-tty. Everything I've come across makes me think is ph probs, so I'm looking into beneficial bacteria and fungi to help the plants.
Almost everything in veg has paled, and I've been using that used happy frog with added dolomite limestone, thinking that it would raise the ph to a healthy level.. but I'm not sure I've done it right.
The wife is healthy, kids are healthy, but one of my dog's is seeing ghosts.

Glad to hear u n the family r good. Now get ur shit together in the groom

Here is my shithole...

look at that crapper...

My compost must be feeling nice though I threw some tomatoes in there and I found a sprout! Shit I think I'm gonna scoop it out into a pot or cup and see how it does. There is definitely fungi in my compost. It's show itself on top now.

You know, that reminds me of the shit that was going on with me and my cousin. I had other stuff in my mix and feeding bottle nutes too so, I stayed ahead of it better than my cousin but, it seemed like something was constantly leaching the nutrients away from the plants, that's the way they acted anyway. We ended up discovering, (after months of chasing my damn tail), that it was the Roots Organic 707 that we were using. He picked up a couple big bags of it for each of us from the same place and it totally fucked his grow for a few months.
We had trust in the name because we had used Roots Organic Original for a long time with great results so, it was hard to see what was going wrong. I kept thinking there was something more I needed to add or maybe I was adding something I shouldn't, it was quite maddening at times.
If this sounds familiar at all maybe you should look at trying some different soil, I've read a lot of reviews on soils where people talked about a lot of problems coming out of them.
If not then, "pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!" lol

Definitely is my situation man... I've tried just about everything. The soil seems like it does great for seedlings and clones but as soon as they start getting some size and I up pot them they have been going to shit. I've been looking into beneficial bacteria, happy frog bag says it has myco's in it but it doesn't seem like they have any as my plants are looking like shit. They look like they are benefiting from nothing. I'm gonna put some in an empty pot and flush the God forsaken hell out of it. See if I can get some plants looking nice.

Maybe bump up to recommended dosage?

Now, I do under stand that plant my size in cups can be starting to get root bound.. I haven't over looked that. But when I transplant and they don't start looking better, instead worse, something is wrong.

After 3 gallons of water ran through the used soil, catching the most of the 3rd gallon to test

 

[Stumpy420]

And ph test came out green, which is like 7.0, dolomite lime do the trick? Now they craving nutes?

I dont know what kinda nutes ur usin or what the recomended dosage is?

Lotta those plants def need to be transplanted.

Hard to say why plants are getting worse after transplant but i do know for certain transplanting in and of itself is not the problem and shudnt be avoided.
If i had to go out on a limb and guess why theyre condition is degrading after u transplant i wud say that now that they have rm for new roots they wanna grow and theyre not getting the proper nutrients to do so.

Idk what ur ph was at before haha.
I cant tell ya if it raised ur ph like its supposed to:)

What kinda soil u usin?

Happy frog soil, been using gh flora nutes at like half strength max and weaker since they are only under a 250w hps and 2 25w grow cfl's for a little broader spectrum, ph of run off was coming out at 5 and lower...

I have no reason to believe that environment is off. Temps in mid to high 70s with 40-50%Rh. But everything is taking longer to dry out, even the cups.

Flippin a row of gg4 today....cant say im satisfied w their health. These are the ones my buddy vegged while i was outta town. I vegged em a lil bigger than i wudda liked in an effort to make em healthy again. I really dont like to put plants in flower that arent 100% but it was either that or have my rm sit half empty for 4 or 5 wks while i take new clones and veg em out and then i wud be behind schedule on the next rip after that so i decided to just run em....they're def gettin better than they were when i first got back but not what i wudda liked......oh and i also snuck in a chaco's sour diesel in this rip to test it out. Haven't run that one yet so we'll see how she does. I was gifted the chaco by @mittenmedgrow a while back and he ses its top notch and relatively easy to grow for an sd variety so here goes....
