Hey mate, if you are growing organically in compost it will buffer to some extent, but when you add non-organic fertiliser that can cause nutrient/salt buildup, which in turn will effect the PH of the medium, it could have possibly been die back though. I'd recommend you get a cheap PH pen from Amazon, they are really handy to have. It gives you the ability to rule things out if you do come into an issue, if you dont test you wont know for certain. Hope this helps 🙂

I agree with inspireme not quite enough nitrogen in veg stage. Next time don't use a flowering nutrient all the way through your grow. Use the flowering nutrients when the plants actually in flower.

Thank you, I do not PH my water as I am growing in compost. I have always been told that the compost will buffer the solution so there is no need. Could be nitrogen. I didn't start feeding flower nutes until quite late. I feel it may be overwatering

Hey mate, could be two things. She may not have had enough nitrogen during the stretch period, called die back. Or it could possibly be PH related. Have you checked your runoff PH and your feed PH?
