#1 sprouted about a day after #2 and #3, so all were moved to the tent. #4 growing straight up and reaching a bit, so I lowered the light from about 36" to 20", and seems to have helped. #3 is listing a bit, but I think it's due to the seed having been planted upside down. End of day #3 and substrate was dry, so gave them a bit of Dyna-Gro Foliage in the ratio of 1.4tsp per gal. My water is pretty hard, so mixing in some distilled water and the nutes helped get it to the right pH level. Once #1 gets slightly more established all of these will end up in their final 5 gallon cloth containers.
What's going on with the intervenial chlorosis? Is it nute burn (zinc + manganese + iron potentially)? Is my proposed solution of only going with pH-balanced water a good mitigation strategy? Should I just not add super soil out of the gate?
Hi buddy, that's a clear cut case of PH. It's way too high and the swings must be huge too. Whatever you are feeding it's PH isn't even close to the water feeds that follow it, that's what's causing your mix match of probs and the shading inbetween is swings or 2 high a PH, but I'd put it down to a more unstable PH with massive swings in feeds. You need to lower your PH to 5.8-6.3max and your follow up water feeds/flushes need to be the same. Good luck pal.
