Cause you switched to bloom nutes is my guess. So let me ask did you switch to bloom nutrients?Ok so I'm banging my head up against the wall... ive tried what I feel like is everything
higher ec, lower ec, higher ph, lower ph, ramping the lights up slower when moving to flower
basically I'm growing in rockwool 6x6x6 blocks, when i move the plants to flower i put them on unislabs
ec in veg is 1.4
ec in flower is 1.8
ec in blocks is 2-6 with my grosens meter
any idea why every time i put my plants in flower around week 2 they start yellowing out prematurely?
I'm feeding every hours for a 1m20s with 2 (2gph drippers)
and the plants are so large i need to give them 3 night irrigations or they will dry back to 7% or so which obv isnt good....
what do you guys think?
I use HGV nutrients, on a dosatron system
I recently started using UC Roots in the system hoping if it was a root rot issue itd help (which i dont think it is)
I'm using RO well water
I've also tried more frequent irrigations... seems like every hours is pretty good for the charts though
WHY THE HELL ARE THE PLANTS ALWAYS SHOWING DEFICIENCY STARTING WEEK 2 OF FLOWER?!
its not a nutrient salt buildup since theres plenty of runoff... in the room pictured i gave it veg nutrients the first two weeks of flower to see if that'd help and they seemed to take off a bit quicker but in the past they got flower nutrients right when they went in the flower room
help me guys... my home grow looked fucking perfect, not my commercial spot is struggling to get dialed in
Damn beat me to it lol. I'm guessing the N deficiency is from, not enough N.Cause you switched to bloom nutes is my guess. So let me ask did you switch to bloom nutrients?
Nutrient buildup but this is not my domain @Dirtbag will probably have the answers
Have you tried using a different feed or ratio? Have you tried to just keep feeding them the veg nutes they were doing so good with? I grow some big plants in 6in but that plant is fucking huge for that cube. Specially if you are only talking week 2 of flower. I thought it was a 4in cube by the picture before I read the post. Most of the time people are going 6 to 8 or 8 to slab when they start getting that big or loose in 5 gals. Problem is your root zone is prob become such a tight mass that you might be getting buildup in spots.
I mean I'm just throwing some stuff out there but it could be a number of things.
I think the issue is it's getting rootbound in the 6x6x6 block making it very hard for water/ nutrients to get through the way they should... also just showing signs of root bound?
Im thinking putting the 6x6x6 in the loose gro-cubes will allow the roots to grow outward instead of staying balled up in the blocks
Worth a try bc those blocks are FULL of roots and it's showing signs week 2 of flower and on (14+days) as the roots are exploding
Also heard rootbound may cause plants to be overly sensitive even to relatively low ec... show signs of deficiency when you shouldn't be seeing that...
