Optimal pH for Vermic/Peat/Casting mix?

started grow question 4 years ago
Seeing as I am using 1/3 vermiculite 1/3 peat and 1/3 worm casting for these seedlings, should the optimal pH of the substrate be 6, 6.3, or 6.5?

I think your mix is not well done, so much vermiculite will ever overwater your plants, like u can see they are not full healty and not for ph problem. however 5.8 soiless is the right range

Are you using soil at all? If it is a soiless mix then 5.5 to 6 ph in veg and 6.0 to 6.5 in flower. Cheers

Yellowing too soon?
What do you think about the yellowing on the 6th week? The npk of the soil i use is 9-2-2. But its the king of yellowing when she needs more N. No dark spots, no burnt tips. This would be normal maybe on the 8/9 week i think.

Deficiency of nitrogen
W.Gelato seems its taking too much nitrogen. Ive already made top dressing with worm castings and compost teas but still hungry. My question is: should i add some small dose of NPK mineral based (i have PLAGRON coco A+b) or it would do more bad than good since im doing organic

Primary ( K ) or secondary nutrient ( Ca-Mg ) deficiency?
Hi friends, I would like your opinion. I'm not very worried, there are a few weeks left until the harvest and I think the situation is under control. THX 😇

Give them food or not ?
hello it is time to water for some, they took 15-20 days to drink their water. I fed them at the last watering but I hesitate to feed them again because of their light color? Thanks

Hot Soil
Is it true that hot (nutrient rich, in this case organic) soil can create nutrient lockout in seedlings? Next time I should only start in jiffy pellets or similar?

Yellowing of top fan leaves
What is causing yellowing of the top fan leaves? Started to happen to a plant that I broke by accident during LST. However around the same time I upped to 2ml/l and moved the light a little closer. My ph has also been high (fine now). No idea which one could be the culprit

Nutrient burn symptoms?
I may have slightly burned my plants based on the burnt tips. But do tiny brown spots near the tips also mean the same thing? Also some leaves are not completely greening out:s I know I’m not over watering the pot either. And they are getting cal/mag. Also grown in fox farm soil.

P deficiency (95% sure) help request.
P deficiency. I cannot measure soil PH but it's "Biobizz Light Mix" and I use suggested BioBizz nutrients. Now is cool here and the temp range is around 17-13 °C. There's a method to fix the issue? Should I heat the box?
