I am hoping an advanced grower can help me with my problem. I'm getting really bad feed back from other people. Here is the line up:
Strain: Purple Punch
Stage: first week of flower/ this is not a new problem. Problem all through veg
Medium: Happy Frog
Nutrients: Heavy16 line /I use the whole line and follow the feeding schedule online
I do not over water, I use a meter and wait until they are ready
I flush about every 2 weeks
I use Sea Green 1ml per gal. with every feeding
I use Heavy16 Foliar twice a week with 1ml of roots and 1ml fire added
I don't have to adjust my ph because the Heavy16 line does it for you. So going in is 6.5ph Coming out is 5.5ph
Because I'm in soil it's hard to determine the PPM coming out. But it's always around 2500ppm
Now onto the problem. After reading numerous articles it looks like Nitrogen deficiency. Lower to mid leaves are turning yellow then brown and crisp, then falling off.
But how is this possible if I'm using the line exactly as directed?
A few people I have talked to say to Flush. That is always there go to answer on everything. Well, I've done that and it has not cleared up. I have tried lowering nutrients, nope, that didn't work. Someone suggested watering more often, nope, that didn't work.
Nitrogen deficiency looks like the logical answer from all the pictures and articles. Lower to mid leaves turning yellow, then crispy, then falling off. Tops are nice and green (lime green) not dark. They say it steals nitrogen from the bottom for the top, but eventually working its way to the top.
So if this seems to be the problem, how do I fix it? To top it all off one article said if you are using a nutrient line and feeding to schedule it's probably NOT a Nitrogen deficiency. So now I am at a loss.
Thank you so much for any feed back.
PS. I hate to say this but my gut tells me I got some bad clones from the start. The clones looked weak. Genetics could be bad. I could be wrong.
