Ancient_Geneticsstarted grow question 3 years ago
They were slightly overwatered, the soil PH of 7.1 to 7.3, lacking phosphorus, maybe magnesium to. Branches from the sides are stretching, but I noticed thet lower leaves started to turn yellow a little at both. If anyone knows good advice to help them out, I would be grateful.😅

Hey there @Nitro3... your PH is too high! You need to get it down to 6.0-6.5 (preferably 6.2-6.3). I would flush with ph'd water adding in nutes to the last gallon you run through.... then let them dry out completely before watering again... it doesn't matter that they were slightly overwatered - overwatering once doesn't bother anything, it's constantly overwatering that becomes the problem... so don't be afraid to flush - it will help immensely to get that PH down to where the plant can absorb the nutes you're giving ...
Good luck!

Thank you all, I have a question, since the pots need at least 4-5 days to dry out, how many days do I have to wait, after the flush, so that I can transplant them into larger pots. can I do it anytime or do I have to when it dries almost completely.

adjust your PH down to 6.1 to 6.3, give it a bit and re-evaluate the nutrient uptake once the plant recovers some.

Transplant them into bigger pots and 99% of your problems will be solved.
Otherwise try and reduce your pH slightly.

What can I do? Leafs starting to turn yellow. First growerYesterday, I noticed some leafs starting to turn yellow and also the tips of the top leafs to be a bit brown. So I watered (nutrition in the desc) and calmag 2 ml, because I thought it might be either lack of PK or cal mg. What else can I do? What about my watering schedule?Week 9

Living soil and rain water problemHas using rain water killed my living soil?
Has anyone got experience of using living soil with rain water? Apparently the ppm is too low (just like RO water) for the plant to take in nutrients.
So basically is my living soil now just soil or is the microbial life still there?8 months ago

Autos reacting to All-Mix: Slight nitrogen overload?Pheno one showed very "leathery", weak, hanging leaves of dark green. Same time the fungus gnats had a run and the population doubled. After second LST also the stronger plant showed those signs on the younger upper leaves. Also curled down a little. Slight nitrogen toxicity?8 months ago
