I’m keeping that chart lolAlkalinity is measured in Ppms not the ph. Two different things. The more ppms of alkalinity the longer it takes to buffer your ph. If it’s over 100 your soil can’t buffer it correctly. 6.5-6.8 is ideal for soil from what I’ve seen.
Those plants look very healthy to me. New growth at that stage is going to be lighter green and gets darker as it matures.I just don’t know what I’m doing wrong. I see all these other peoples grows and my plants seem like there little baby toddlers that are beginning to become depressing to look at.
If you are close to 6.0, it could have a hard time with P. Easy for our pens to be off the tiniest bit. If your pen shows 6.0 but is actually 5.8 then you could have problems. I stopped phing my water when I was told on here when I first started growing that soil buffers ph and you don’t need to. My plants locked out calcium magnesium and phosphorus. My cities water test shows an alkalinity of 150 ppms. My soil (fox farm) wasn’t able to buffer it.I’m keeping that chart lol
Well it was weird I watered them last nite with 6.7 ph water and this morning I checked the Ph of the soil and the further down you go it got as low as 4.7ph at the bottomThose plants look very healthy to me. New growth at that stage is going to be lighter green and gets darker as it matures.
Tip burn happens, nothing to be overly worried about. When do your lights go off?And in those plants my tips are turning yellow now and droopy leaves
On time:430am Off time:430pmTip burn happens, nothing to be overly worried about. When do your lights go off?
Did you see that I said when I ph my soil it will be 6.3ish all the way down till about 2 inches from the bottom it immediately drops to 4.7 to 5Tip burn happens, nothing to be overly worried about. When do your lights go off?

You are using 3 part micro grow and bloom nutrients, what company are they from? The lower ph at the bottom of the containers could be an accumulation of salts from the liquid nutrients building up. Next watering, use water only and use enough so you get some runoff and it’ll help flush that out
Did you make the diffuser with a piece of paper? That is way too low, during flower you want closer to 40dli, Ppfd 700-900.That’s with my light turned all the way down until I get my new evo10 ion frame
Perfect, in flower you want that to be much higher. During veg I go from 300 at the beginning and slowly increase it, usually no higher than 450. When I flip, I’ll slowly increase it from there. By the end of stretch I like to be 700-800ppfd 30-40 dli. Increase your light to 300 Ppfd. Then slowly increase it from there. Don’t rush it, they could herm if it’s too much of an increase. The measurement should be taken from the top of the plantThat’s with the paper flush with the phone and it is the correct paper
