Looking for some friendly advice

[Symbioid]

I think this is nute lockout? due to watering with a low ph, i just watered yesterday at 5.8, im wondering if i should water again tomorrow (would be overwatered a little) with a higher ph to try and resolve this issue.

Median is 30/70 coco promix ph using remo ph perfect nutrient line

*im a very new grower

i would let the medium dry out before rewatering, it should be able to buffer your last low ph feeding
whats your source of water? ppm? starting ph?
also condition of the room and lighting wouldnt hurt.
the more info the better off you are

im sure more experienced people will chime in soon

Any help is appretiated!! This is my first time so thank you i will deffinatly do that

My tap water is soft enough so im using that its around 140ppm before i do anything to it at 7.1-7.4ph i let it sit for 24 hours before it gets used aswell

Tent conditions are 24-25 c rh is 51-55% 3 fans and a vivosun 4" out

Ok first 3 fans in a little tent may be a bit to much. You want indirect airflow. Like a cyclone or toilet bowl (whichever way you prefer to think of it)

To do so 1-2 fans faced at the wall just below canopy level. Not over top . Creates good air mixing and your exhaust fan them pulls it up and out.

Nutrients at 500ppm ish for this stage of growth Ph'ed to 5.8.

Next read thipost.t and feed accordingly.

HOW TO WATER COCO FOR BEST RESULTS.

Ok writing this cause i see this issue often and rather have a thread to link than explain this each time. This is not my work but a collection of info from many members here and I have put into practice myself. So first off COCO is NOT soil. For best results we want to keep it saturated...

Just throwin this out there , it's probably not your problem but in my observation many people over train , pinch crop etc .... Some strains don't like that , some get stressed and other factors like over / under watering , nute heat issues further stresss a plant that wasn't strong enough to be trained .....
Just sayin , keep it in mind for the future ...
What strain or name is the plant ?
Just my opinion some may disagree ....

Yup

 

[Symbioid]

The 2 plants in question havent had any training done actually, over watering might be playing a small part in the plants issues aswell but my fear is thats not the whole problem

 

[Symbioid]

thank you aquaman i appologize i did not see your post at first this is how ive got it setup

 

[Symbioid]

They are almost ready for bed aswell so they do look sadder than normal

 

[dire wolf]

How

these plants haven't had any training ? Damn I'm losing my touch ....they look pinched to me

 

[Symbioid]

I am so sorry yes they were topped a while back but they were totally healthy up until a couple days ago

 

[dire wolf]

really ....they're growing squat with multiple shoots at the top ?

 

[Aqua Man]

Ok I just read ph perfect nutrients so need to change what I said. Feed as per thread I linked. Your not over watering almost impossible to do in coco.

With ph perfect nutrients follow this

600ppm

Do NOT adjust the PH it will mess up the nutrients.

Always stay between 400-800ppm or it won't maintain ph well.

Should be used with RO water if possible.

Ok .....sorry we simultaneously posted ....anyway they will be ok

 

[Symbioid]

So what your saying is stop using ph down and go and buy the big bottles of ro water to feed?


Thank you so much guys for taking the time to help out a newbie i love this form!!

 

[Symbioid]

Same strain as the plants in question same feeding schedual median and everything.. out of my other tent with waay lower grade lighting, i have another one twin to this just as healthy aswell again they are about ready for bed but this is why ive been so concerned, should i maybe try turning my optic 8+ down a little aswell?

Ive had a fan at top since the start of flower @Aqua Man blowing across them oscilating.. does this dry out the leaves or hinder the extraction fan.its only a slight rustle.i know pointing your fans downward pushes warm air back downand not letting the cool air circulate propper..

 

[Aqua Man]

You dont have to get RO and personally I would try the tap first.


Yes absolutely never PH adjust those nutrients ot will mess them up.

Feed them 1 litre each per event.

No it won't create issue unless blowing hot air but let me explain. Leaves transpire on the bottom side of the leaf through stomata... so to eliminate microclimates, create the best gas exchange for the leaf we need to move air to the undersides of the leaves.

When you blow from the top it acts as a hydrofoil sonits not as effective.
