Alrighty, figured I’d check in as Carmelicious has really taken a beating. The only things I can think of causing this are:
The soil being hot for whatever reason. I had nothing with slow release nutrients in my mix. Unlikely as the burn doesn’t start at the tips too.
Or, pH fluctuations. When I accidentally watered the gallon or so from my drip system, the pH was not adjusted and my tap water is usually in the 8.2-8.5 range. And then I pHed my superthrive/seaweed mix to 6.7.
the burns look more aligned with pH fluctuations than nutrient burn.
My only explanation for why Carmelicious and not the other two is that maybe this strain is just more sensitive to pH fluctuations.
Thoughts?
