AsNoriuanswered grow question 3 years ago here you are doomed, everybody will give different versions
mine :
long term over-watering ( when you water too much or too often, while pots are still heavy and wet, when lockout happens top lair of soil dries, but weight still stays )
that changed ph balance inside of pot. root bound and calcium lockout, blocked nitrogen, need of potassium
good watering regime, de-chlorination of water and 6.3 ph
all you need
algamic is good stuff, could help you, but created for hydro grows. i use ecothrive biosys 2-4 ml to rub into soil before watering, o just add to watering solution and mix it. weekly. doesnt effect ph, sorts nitrogen, boost roots and root zone fauna
