SOIL PH WAS 5.8 AT TIME OF TOPDRESSING.
I BUMPED UP THE WATERS PH TO BRING THE SOIL PH UP TO 6.35 (FOR THE MOMENT)
I WONDER IF MY LIVING SOIL GROW MEDIA REQUIRES A LOWER PH?

Well … this grow has become a salvage operation. Every day the past week I have considered pulling up the plant, mixing a new pot of soil and planting new seeds.
However, I do not know why it got so stunted. So, I have decided to make this a learning situation.
The base mix ( 5 gallon of mix ) for the first grow was:
40% promix
20% Happy Frog
20% Worm Castings
10% rice hulls
10% perlite
5 tbsp Gaja Green All Purpose
5 tbsp Gaja Green Power Bloom
1 tbsp kelp meal
1 tbsp Glacial Rock Dust
topdressed with 5tbsp All Purpose & 5 tbsp Power Bloom on day 28
topdressed with 3 tbsp All Purpose & 7 tbsp Power Bloom on day 49
topdressed with 5 tbsp power bloom on day 70
The first grow went good.
The second grow ( with the same added amendments as first grow) had small plants and about ½ the bud weight as the first grow.
This last grow is severely stunted. Why this is , I do not entirely know.
The plants do seem to have way too much nitrogen. And I may have watered too much.
Also, I tried to increase the ppfd a bit hoping it might produce a larger plant by flower time.
It did not.
I believe that over the course of the three grows in the same soil I have too much nitrogen, and other minerals, in the soil. As everything else has remained the same as the first grow.
Today … my plan is to try to grow them all out as well as I can. The next grow I plan to dump ½ the soil out after each grow and replace with new mix. And add ½ as much Gaja Green as I have been.
So … any thoughts and comments are certainly appreciated.
