Hello,
Have seven autos (Fastbuds) at start of week 8 and it’s my first time using full biobizz line at 1/4 as advised by biobizz schedule in Lightmix soil. They are in 4x4 with Lumatek 300w pro at 75% at top of tent. Temp not over 24c but can go to 23.5c and rh is 65% after waterings but drops to 60% after a day.
Have had probably the best grow since starting (first organic) until I watered them with tap water only and since then no matter what I do the fan leaves keep dying to the point where one is bald and some are starting to have sugar leaves affected. Oh and Fimmed week 2/3 but no issues with it.
My tap water comes out between 7.6/8 and around 100ppm or on the 0.2 Ec side. I bottle the water and add Neutralize by ecothrive for the chlorine.
Now as there seems to be two opinions on whether or not to ph with biobizz I started off without and had great results until I added the water only in week 5. And I always wait for very light pots to water. A full feed mix at 1/4 dosage for all comes out at 6.8ph usually. (Pots where saturated with the biobizz propagation mix at 1/4 and only watered once or twice in weeks 2 and 3 then 1/4 dose of biobizz veg with fishmix instead of grow in week4) Hours after watering leaves went pale. Ppm and ec is unusable for organic I think but ph was between 6.8ph to 7.2ph so figured it was due to not phing and maybe a Calmag def. Tried dropping ph on for those needing feeding and phd (tried to bring to 6.8)and Calmag water for the ones needing water but nothing helped and they are still dying off. Thought my meters where off as a couple of the Bluelab pens I had are all over the place but thought I could rely on a Bluelab multimeter as it had newish one year old water probe but bought an apera20 and 60 just in case and they both put the ph at several points above the Bluelab and match each other so just more confusion there as they all calibrate fine and match relative solutions.
Sorry for the length just wanted to try and not miss anything.
Please Help and thank you for your time.
This feels like therapy
