I know over watering causes purple stems, tho I never usually water until pots where almost dry/dry when lifting them.
Looking good, stick with it, going the right direction now. Key is to watch new growth now, the older leaves are definitely darkening. What ec was the last feed?Plants appear a bit darker every day now from where new growth is suppose to be coming in.
I was able to bump up the tent temps by another 2 degrees by just adjusting air intake instead of from cooler basement floor, to about eye level where the warmer air sits.
Soil temps towards bottom of pot is 18.1° celcius, and mid to top ranges 20-22° celcius. Humidty been staying perfect.

All depends on pot/plant size, usually not until run off in those 3/5 gal containers for a plant that size. About a litre and a bit each. Yes food or ph adjusted water only same amount of water.How much water do you give them when you water? Till run off? Food same amount as reg water? How often do you usally water? I have a feeling you could dial that in better, but it could just be the cold root temps slowing down aspiration.
that’s not the way to water plants you are suppose to soak the entire medium and let it dry out almost completely before soaking it again,.Edit:
Sorry I water actually more than 1 litre for big plants, lol.
I have my plant water sitting near heat source now where water temp is a bit warmer, instead of just bare (basement) cement floor
I just watered them with 10L of water, flora series, super root, rhino skin, and some diablo thrive added. 758PPM... felt like I added ALOT of nutes... I added about 2/3 of what Flora recommends, usually I fed 1/4 of nutes, but with like 2x plain ph adj. Waterings inbetween.
I just look how big the plant is and water in a circle until drenched far down into the pot, as it grows it gets more water...
The smaller plants in the picture are soaked till run off, but they should be transplanted really.
Larger plants got about 2 litres or so, maybe a little bit more.
They already look like day and night. No more yellowing, no more spots, or what looked like mag def. In leafs. They are turning green nicely it seems, slowly starting to show new growth , they should be defoiled tho, so good time to remove some of the uglier stuff once I get some time... they look like they will turn into nice plants, but I will leave them in veg for a bit until they are all healthy, giving them some time.

ya the small ones though i mean the big ones also.They have been stunted for weeks until you guys came along and now they're actually showing some growth finally again.
I added more water until run off now, same nute mix, just more until drenched.
I think I made a mistake planting them in 5gal pots, I forgot how much water they can actually absorb
need more NHere a few more sad pictures.
Plants havent really grown much in past month 1/2

12-4-16 and epson salt 6.3gpg and 3.5gpg ec2.4New growth? It doesn't appear there is any still. I removed all yellowing leaves before i feed it full nutes, and now more leaves are turning yellow and still burning tips. The plant is still basically consuming itself from the edges of the leaves inward.

I have read somewhere to water as if it's rain water, i believe rain water does have a ph of 5.8... if they don't improve soon, i might gradually start dropping ph again.
The keyword here is 'almost'. ProMix has a nasty habit of salt buildup if you let it get too dry and isn't the easiest medium to flush in bigger containers. Dont ask how i know.that’s not the way to water plants you are suppose to soak the entire medium and let it dry out almost completely before soaking it again,.
what you are doing and you can see it is by that way of watering your roots are not growing outwards as your side branches are not stretching out, your method is creating a stunted, bushy plant..
Yea I should really transplant those smaller plants into larger pots, when I find the time, never really had issues with salt build up yet, maybe because I haven't fed enough
But it sure seems like all the other issues compiled& nearly killed the plants, but they are starting to look alot better every day now, they are definatly tough.
I defoiled them some today as they seem to have grown already quite abit since we started nursing them back to life.
they really look much better!!Hi guys,
Plants seem to be doing fine, no change in color for the worse or any deficiencies in progress from what I can tell since last watering (Thursday) with 800ppm nutes., drenched until run off.
Pots still feel soaked tho, very heavy, might takea while until those 5 gal dry out.
Defiantly going to give a 3gal run another try, seemed like plenty for what I have done in the past, less medium/water required aswell.

I measured the temperature about 2/3 down in the moist grow medium at 16.3 celcius, or 61 degrees Fahrenheit. Can you tell me if that's okay or too cool.Workin at this world junior championship
Tourney- well not the tourney but installin a tennis court
Welcome to the farm,I measured the temperature about 2/3 down in the moist grow medium at 16.3 celcius, or 61 degrees Fahrenheit. Can you tell me if that's okay or too cool.
