Rest of the garden responded well !

How ever it’s gotta be gettin close to finding out if my soil is good this run ? I think it still might be to hot for the entire cycle . As they get closer to flower I see the the leaves twisting and some spotting so minor changes to the next mix.
Oh run off is around 1300-1450 ppm and 6.2
I was kinda hoping for lower ppm by now and high ph

Maybe back off the ppm’s some. That is very high to me. And it could cause the symptoms you are seeing.

I was thinkin 1100 or so ? Is where I’d like to be right now


The soil runoff starts out high like that sometimes but once it is tapered off and i am fertilizing i wont want it much higher than 1.6ec. Thats 800ppm. And that gets tapered down right after peak flowering slows down.

They use way less nutrients than we usually think. And i have found that the closer we keep them at their sweet spot and have little waste building up in the soil the more potent the flowers are.

To much nitro in the soil and maybe phos ? And not enuff dolimite ? I think I’ll adjust !
Never worried to much about these things outside in the field!


Things are different in a container under artificial lights.

And you likely have plenty of calcium. It is being blocked by the high salt content of the medium.

Where would the salt come from? I am lightly feeding epsom


You arent feeding?

If thats so. (Im sorry i am on too many threads lately and getting confused) then it may be time to start a light feed.

I really need to read back and review i think.

No worries I know you get around ! And we appreciate it! These are autos in amended soil no chemical ferts. All bone meal blood meal castings etc I did add a little xtra cal and mag b cause of the fast growing much like we used to do with our flowers so I haven’t added anything except water, yet I expect to at some point ? But I may still have it still to rich ? We will just keep on keepin on !

I dont know too much about mixing complete soil. I have wanted to try a water only maybe topdress once kind of grow but have not yet.

I do know that it is a trial and error process.

Hopefully the live organic growers will chime in.
