Nitrogen claw in hot soil. To flush or not to flush - that is the question!
TerraDoncstarted grow question 4 years ago
Think my plant's suffering from nitrogen toxicity because some of the leaves are clawing and have yellow tips. Must be the hot soil because I haven't fed her with any nutrients. Should I leave a few days and see what happens or is it worth flushing the soil?

I would wait and see what happens.. Flushing soil is not simple as Just dumping water until a bunch comes out of the bottom. There is a whole living, breathing environment inside your soil and root zone. And things are alive and learning to thrive on the conditions they are growing in. You strip the soil and your plant will be much worse for it. Because the balance she is working so hard to achieve will be thrown off.

Why does my pH keep changing in Germany? I set my water at 5.9 then it shifts 3-4 times over few hours, causing lockout if I water my plants with it, In Ireland, I never had this issue.

Runnoff measuring results are not what I expected.Hello, I have a question. When you look at my diary, I find my runnoff measurments to be concerning. Why do you think my PPM is so high and my pH so low? How do I measure my runnoff correctly? Do I filter it before reading or do I let it wait?7 days ago

Hello community! I broke 2 branches this week. The first one happened by accident when I was draining the runoff, and the other when I was bending it.And today I came across a video where the author explains that silica can cause brittleness of branches. Does anyone have experience with silica and have you experienced anything like this? I add potassium silicate with each watering, at a concentration of 15ppmFeeding. Chemical composition

Too much nitrogen and underwatering?Hey guys, can anyone tell me what they want (or have too much off?)
I think the big one has a bit too much nitrogen is my guess?
I also transplanted them today and yesterday so they had a bit less water as usual the past days. Could that be it as well?Leaves. Curl down
