Opinions? Any Suggestions? Hopefully Help

Suggestions? I made the mistake of watering with ph3 water, 2 water cycles. I've noticed changes in growth since. I've continued with ph 6.3 water since. Did I lock it up? No nutes yet. Fox farm ocean forest soil. Not 100% sure of age, probably 6 to 8 weeks.

what nutrients etc do you have there?
take pictures of what you got..

can you post a picture of nutrient labels so i can read the NPK ratio’s..

things to do if one "feeds" to much --- cut nutrient amounts to 1/2 - decrease # of feeding x's per week - flush for 5 days before using nute's again. A lot of times a plant will "grow" out of it's issue. Patience To be honest have never got caught up in the "PH" thing

your next watering you’ll feed them..
we’ll start with
4 ml grow big per gallon
5 ml big bloom per gallon..

Both in one gallon?

yes, mixed together in one gallon of water..

My first grow had yellowing like that. It was decided it was nutrient lockout due to over watering. I stopped watering and the plant recovered. I have a sequence of pictures over five days without water. The change in the color of the plants was amazing.

I've been giving about 16oz of water every 2 days. I just checked with the cheap meter I have and it's more towards the dry mark.

So this is a light feeding vs directions on the bottle?

I Normally don't but just starting to attempt lol

Are the 3 fingered fans off the bottom? or is it an Auto? The mild yellowing I suspect shes over-wet, the new growth is telling you "no more water"...let her dry to 30-20%? then re-assess - Your in Soil so over watering can be detrimental. No you are not locked out (yet)...

 

[GNick55]

what kind of light you using and how far away is it?

Yes. I'm not 100% sure if it's an auto. It's bag seed. Lemon OG Haze.

It's a cheap ebay light, I used it last grow with success. It's about 16 inches above

How many gallons is that pot? I think youre using too little water too often but the ph3 can also be the reason. I agree with BigBlonde, whenever my plants look like that I know Ive been watering too much. Your pot has way more water retention potential than the water youre using, your readings come on the dry side because your only wetting the top part of your soil but probably too much. Also at ph below 4,5 is toxic to your plants and also makes undesired metals like alumina water soluble which are also toxic for your plant. Ammonium is also absorbed in higher quantities at a time with a ph below 4.5 which would explain why I see a slight curling in some leaves (the ammonium nitrate, too much nitrogen being absorved too quickly). How many times per week are you feeding them? One? Also it looks like a photoperiodic plant to me because all of the growth and the fact that it didnt start to flower yet after 6-8 weeks.

5 gal fabric pot, which actually holds about 4 gallon. I have not fed anything at this point. I'm using water from the fridge filter. I was using ph3 with a project and mixed up which was which until it was too late. Stupidity of using the same type container and not double checking it. The thin leaves and curly on the new growth was my concern as well. Not what it was doing in the beginning. I'm going to start feeding next water cycle as was suggested. How much water should I put to it?

I know it's not easy to see, but it has improved. More green than light green. Side by side pics the difference can be seen somewhat.
