I have not checked the ppm and do not have a method to check.Have you checked the ppm of your water?
Don't remember if he said his water source. I filter my well water with a Pur water pitcher, huge one, for the plants, and use Advanced Nutrients ph perfect base trio. If I don't filter the water, then problems like above have happened.
:cool:

Thank you, I will check it out.Buy a zero water filter,it comes with a tds meter or get one from Amazon of you can,they are pretty affordable.
I hear ya,mine have kinda done the same thing,i used tap and also a brita filter and jt still does it to some extent,that was with old reused soil though,now with the fresh happy frog they seem to be doing better so idk what exactly the issue is or was.I was filtering my tap water and then I noticed the issues start. I looked into the brita and it filters out some of the calcium and other minerals. I stopped using the filtered water and just switched to tap water. The issues kept increasing. The leaves are still the same or getting worse but the buds keep growing so I am not sure what I am supposed to do?
Is your tap water from a public water source? The city water where I live smells like chlorine and it tastes awful. Happy I'm not in the city or near their water lines. Was reading over your posts, and either way, well or public water, I would get a better filter than Brita and go from there. You want all the stuff filtered out because your adding back everything the plants need to thrive, when you use your nutrients. I agree with one guy above about nute lockout, since your not filtering water. Hope you get it straightened out.Brita water pitchers don't filter out a lot of solids in well water that can cause nutrient lockout. Pur filters filter out much more, and I have to change filters just every few weeks. I am thinking now, this whole issue started with the water. I've never used zero filter. But, I know I have success with the Pur. My well water has solids so bad, that every 2 or 3 months, I even have to take the cold water supply to my washer loose and clean that fine screen.
If that is what has happened, then your yield is really gonna suffer, but get a Pur or Zero (if as good) and just continue and we will all advise as it goes. :cool:

set your water out for 2 days before using it?
I am not sure what is going on but the leaves are still the same but the buds doubled in size since Monday. I have only been giving water after I flushed it with no nutrients.
more importantly so it gasses out the chlorineI always fill the water can a few days before and put it inside the tent so it is the same temperature as the plant.

If that's the end goal it much quicker to put a airstone in the water for a few hours,unless it's super high levels a little chlorine won't hurt anything,in fact plants use it in micro levels like other micro nutes,chloramine is a different story though which I have in my tap,also if your doing organic in small containers it can have negative effect on bacteria,etc.more importantly so it gasses out the chlorine
How many days into flower are you again?I plan on going out and buying water just to rule out the water issue. The buds have doubled in size in the last 4 days so I am even more baffled.
Ho
How many days into flower are you again?
