Take note of specific ghosted areas in a few leaves.
Spray with calcium chloride. (tomato end rot spray)
Should green up the yellow, if not too far gone.
This is a low risk fix, but might revel a lock out condition.
Good luck.
Oh yeah for sure twice a day at that. Ph is very stable at 6. I say 6 because that is what my drops say. My meter just broke yesterday and i cant order a replacement for a week so its loe tech for a while. Although ph perfect nutes supposedly dont need to be phed. Also supposed to be used with ro water and im not so i have had to adjust very slightly but not much.Are you adjusting the ph after your res is all mixed up?
Ok, that’s what I thought. You’re very detail oriented like I am. Which means you’re going to have an issue with this, DO NOT adjust the ph on the ph perfect line. You’re messing up the additives, chelates, and surfactants they have engineered to “feed” the plant between 4.0 and 8.0. If your ph is anywhere in that range, your good, don’t mess with it. Call the support number and they can explain it better than I can. But I was doing the same thing, and got similar leaf problems. I haven’t adjusted my ph in weeks, and they are doing better. I will probably use a different base nute next time. The ph perfect stuff seems to be made for complete noobs, who’s only piece of kit are measuring spoons from the kitchen.
GH huh, haven’t used thier nutes yet. So I can’t really comment there. RO water will definitely help. I know it’s a strong base, but I don’t think the silicate effects the ph perfect at all. I’ve mixed up a res with it and one without, both had a ph of 6.6 when I was done. Hope you get it sorted.Interesting. I haven't actually had to adjust the PH much and only on two of the plants at all. I think my hard water will probably make their ph perfect tech not work quite right but that will be fixed on the next week after I get my RO system. The leaf problems actually all were caused under GH 3 part. Also I think the silica blast is too much for the ph buffer they have in it. silca blast has a really high ph.
Thanks for your input. Its always good to have a second pair of eyes on it.
AN seems to do better when fed and all used same day from what I've seen. They got a bunch of organics in all their products and I find it smells bad even 24 hours later,even when aerated. Bad smell usually indicates anaerobic bacteria or something bad. Connoisseur has quite a bit of potassium for coco too. Idk, just shootin spit balls here, hope ya get it sortedHere are the general details.
Lights: 1x HPS AC 18-24" height + 1x DE MH 24-36" height 18-6 was 24/7
Temp: AC set at 70 and multiple oscillating fans
PH: 5.6-6.2 (ph pen just took a crap but drops look like between 5.5 and 6.0)
Medium: DWC w 970GPH air pump to 5x 5 gallon buckets insulated and about 95% light proof
Humidity: My meter broke but it seems average about 45% +/-5
Strains: THC Bomb, Amnesia, Amnesia Lemon, Moby Dick, Moby Dick CBD all from seed
Nutrients:
+AN Connoisseur bloom A+B half dosage or TDS 1100 = 400 at tap +700 nutes
+Silica Blast 1/4 strength
+Florablend 1/4 strength
The plants are growing very fast!
They are not problem free though. I have a few clues about why that is but I would like some second opinions. I've attached some photos.
I'm changing the res out every 7 days and putting fresh nutrients in starting on 11/12/17.
So it got a fresh res yesterday. I PH check and PPM check and add water every day to every bucket. Most of the problems seem to be clearing up after the res change but I'm curious if anybody can help diagnose specifically the cause.

Here you see browning of the veins and light yellowing in the leaves This actually seems to still be progressing

A somewhat similar look on this plant. New growth looks almost perfect old growth looks like deficiency of some sort. All of the early life leaves where warped and curled but it seems to have grown out of that.

This is a older fan leaf. Several of the older fan leaves on several of the plants look similar to this.View attachment 757470
Here you can see overall health is fine and they obviously aren't close to dying but still these leaf issues seem too serious to progress to flower until rectified.

now these actually seem much better than yesterday. You can see the new growth is kind of twisted, wrinkled, growing slowly and the tips are bright neon yellow. Most of the leaf was going to that yellow color yesterday and the coloring is starting to turn more normal after the new batch of nutes.
Anyways I'm keeping this journal so I can more easily track problems but also for people to jump in and add their thoughts and opinions. Trying to make this a great grow. I will upload my spreadsheet for the nutes once flower cycle has begun.
Please tell us of the "aspirin method".I'm going to attempt to fem some seeds probably with aspirin method
