Damn dude really? Holy shit! Thats insane, i had it at 70% for seedling and had it oretty close, then turned it up to 100% and moved it to the top over time, thats crazy. Im gonna try the epsom salts as well.

You guys have no idea how much i appreciate the info @Eledin @PooToe @Captspaulding @Newty @Mikedin

I take everything you guys say seriously and just give my thoughts back, its the best way for me to learn. I like to have conversations and really learn the smaller details, and i love learning when i thought wrong

Just wanted to make sure we are all gravy, you’d be amazed, context, it jumps off of a cliff sometimes, it makes me nutty. Bc legit, the homies here, are solid af, and know the damned deal. And above all, share knowledge.


If all of us agreed all the time, earth would suck.

Welcome to the farm btw.

Well that saved me a few minutes of googling, thanks captain! So good that you were using the same light, nobody better than someone who has worked with that light and knows what he is doing can give him better advice.

Crushed volcanic rock from the Java island. Fucking gold as you said.


Just pure volcanic ash, nothing else. I think azomite is mined from a dessert volcano thats why the difference in color but we have known for centuries that land around volcanos are extremely fertile. Is not that people were stupid and like to get burned by a volcano, it was just perfect for farming. Still is, canary island plantains are world famous and the sole reason theyre so good is the ammount of volcanos around. Theyre islands formed by volcanos.

A few years ago one of the volcanos in the canary islands erupted and I think it didnt claim any lives but it destroyed a lot of buildings. But the upside is that they got the island re-fertilized by mother earth. That year plantains came in black color but they were deemed safe to eat and everyone was warned that they should buy them nonetheless but who knows, maybe they just said it so the economy there didnt go to shit. Still the upcoming years plantains are gonna be better than ever.

So i just wanna make sure im reading everyones reactions correctly. Seems like everyone is in aggreeance that this is PROBABLY a sulfur deficiency?

I went online and dug around more, found a ton of sulfur deficiencies that closely match what im seeing right now

Probably the captain and someone else will step in to give you more detailed information. What I can tell you is that when my new growth is too pale I use fast absorption calcium with epsom salts (magnessium and sulfur) and it seems that it gets them back on track.

"Bioactive Supercharger is a 3-0-7 fertilizer that contains calcium, humates, minerals, and more, and can be used on its own in water or partnered with liquid biologicals."
It doesnt say which is the npk of the powder form but it mentions the same ingredients. Where is the phosporus?
They claim it works as a fertilizer aswell as a bio estimulant, but again, why 3-0-7? Makes no sense to me there must be something else youre suposed to use with that, the powder form doesnt mention phopshorus whatsoever neither.

You were using this one right? The one that is suposed to go from seed to harvest but you need to transplant to a container 3 times bigger for flower hahaha. Thats kinda tricky. Anyawy it doesnt have much phopshorus either but it has some. Your roots and hence all your plant could benefit more with a more balanced diet I think. I think you should write to them and ask them where is the phosphorus, maybe its hidden, Im not joking lol, might be in the microorganisms bottle or they might have a reasonable answer. If they dont I would swap brands.
EDIT: Good organic ammendments, not the best but good, but they forgot the freaking bat guano, for me one of the most importants and high in phopshorus. Instead they used poultry litter which is cheaper and more diverse in NPK.

Just a funny thought, my mind wants to think they have a logical reason but what if they dont want your root system to grow too much so the soil wont be depleted too early leading to complains? Certainly leaving phosphorus behind will affect greatly the development of your roots. Im about to ask them myself lol.

Alright mate, I got you. Gonna ask them whats the reasoning behind that formula and why is phosphorus left behind. Usually brands dont wanna talk about their stuff, 90% of the times I ask something they send a generic answer without any relevant information whatsoever but lets try! If they respond I will post the screenshot.

Okay done. I asked if a big plant could make it from seed to harvest without transplant with indicanja and also asked if they have phosphorus in any of their products and if they left it behind whats the reasoning behind it. Lets see what they have to say.

How much epsom salts do you guys recommend i give for a plant showing possible sulfur deficiencies? I looked around online and the recommendations are all over the place lol best idea i saw so far was to start at 1/4tsp per gallon and work up from there based on the plants reactions.

Yes iv basically accepted it probably isnt an iron deficiency, theres been so many experienced growers saying the same things so theres gotta be something there, but i guess i wont know for sure until i try things lol could still be a little light in iron, i honestly have no idea at this point lol

I mean, im not exactly the most experienced, but that doesnt look good to me.

Question, why spray your plant down with watered down milk???

To get rid of powder mold I'm thinking it's dried calcium from the milk hoping so anyways bc it's not on the bottoms of the leafs
