Did you add lime to your soil?
Thats why when I did dirt, I used pH 6 water, and made sure to wait till soil was light, then water the shit out of them. Never had pH problems, never had salt build-up. Having a floor drain sure is nice.
It had the D lime in it. Think watering to runoff pushed it out.
I was watering to 15to 20% runoff. Think that was my issue was pushing the dolomite lime out with it
Flora.. I know I was feeding really low but that combined with root zone being 8ph could have been why they weren’t getting ANY nutes sucked up. Was feeding at 1.3-1.4, spose to be 2.1-2.4. So I way under fed but yeah. I upped feeding and now checking other stuff as well
Yeah just looking at everything right to jot down notes and such.
I don't think so the more I feed and water the lower my soil PH goes
Hmm.. wonder what exactly my issue is than. Something happened somewhere lol. But between low nutes and root zone ph high issue I’m assuming is there somewhere. I just assumed root zone ph being super high is why plant can’t uptake nutes.
I’m at day 42 in those pics. I normally have green leaves till the last 2 weeks or so when I start lowering feed and ready to flush. These girls still have 20days atleast. 15-25days I’m aiming for. Maybe I’m over thinking it idk. Just never had them fading week 4/5 before.
I accidentally overlimed a plant once and it was a nightmare, as much as I tried I couldn't ever get it below 7.2, it's whole grow cycle was a struggle;
Yeah meter is good. I’m debating on putting a small layer of garden aluminum sulphate on. Promix themselves advises to use it if medium ph raises too much. They also say the medium naturally raises no matter what you feed at so kinda lost right now lol.
I know people use wood ash to lower the soil pH but I don't know anything else about it, I do know you can buy it on Amazon if you're interested in checking it out, good luck
I’ll be feeding tonight or tomorrow. I’m gonna put a little more in so I can test some runoff to see the numbers again
