Slowed growth, yellowing top fan leaves
BiggaBstarted grow question 3 years ago
Any suggestions as to what my plant may be deficient in here? I have been feeding very minimally with less than the recommended amount every other week. Nutrients I am using are biobizz fish mix, bio bloom and top max with just some cheap compost soil.

Is this your Sweet ZZ grow? If it is, I don't see any information about any nutes you're giving her... she's hungry!!! And she should be getting SOME grow nutes (not much) and a LOT of bloom nutes at this point - but how much of each is really going to depend on the nutes you're using and their strength... so with no information in your diary, I can't help you a whole lot.... just know that at her age for you to be "feeding very minimally with less than the recommended amount EVERY OTHER WEEK" is the problem here.... up your nutes.... she's starving.
Good luck!

you might want to up your dose a bit and dont mind that a lot of bloom nutes comments plants dont need a lot of bloom they need it at the required amount and the way these products like biobizz are designed to be used is specified in their schedules so stick to the schedule for the ratios but up your dose by 25%. and add a tsp of epsom to your feed and lets see how it goes in a week.

Try using BioBizz BioGrow and BioHeaven. Also you might want to add microbes to the soil (also from BioBizz). You know that the nutrients aren't directly uptaken by the plant, right? You need the microbes to change the nutrients into the actual NPK that the plants can uptake. Depending on how often you have to water your plants, I would add nutrients once a week and see how things turn out.
