Guys, I have no idea what’s going on. Some basics:
medium: peat/coco mix with build-a-soil craft blend mixed in. Also about 10% castings.
soil slurry test: working with organics, I generally do not water to runoff. Therefore, I made a slurry and tested that:
600ppm
6.5 ph
basically perfect, exactly where I’d expect it to be.
water: dechlorinated with hydrologic small boy. 40ppm after filtration.
Feed: In addition to the food in the soil, I have one tent getting organics Alive dry soluble nutrients, and the other tent is getting Foop. I add this to the water twice a week (along with cal-mag on the Organics Alive side). I also do a tea once a week.
It looks like nutrient burn and lockout, but it just doesn’t make sense. 600ppm is not super hot soil. Ph is spot on. I’m feeding the extras at 1/2 strength. I just can’t figure this out. Any ideas?
