CropHouseLewstarted grow question 2 years ago
Having some slight issues with what looks like a phosphorous deficiency in the shorter plant.
Is this common after transplanting?

Okay so coco is not soil. Nor is it to be watered like soil. I grow in coco. Your issue is ph. When growing in coco you never need to transplant. Start in final Potter. It is hydro growing in a potter or bag. Your issue is the ph is wrong in new coco. You can not over water coco. Coco is heavy irrigation. So your not treating your coco right. It's not soil. First thing you need to do is go flush all your coco plants till run off ph is 5.8. Then apply new feed with a cal mag. Your ph is the issue for sure. By doing this your plants will start to thrive. I soak, test, and feed every other day on my coco grows. You may have to daily till your ph test low right when you start. You can reuse coco 2 or 3 times. I am not guessing anything. I know exactly what your issue is. So any soil answers you get are dead wrong. Coco is not soil. Sadly not many know how to properly use it right. They do exactly like you are and miss out on a ton of potential. Happy to help you get on the right track. Like I said I am a highly experienced coco grower. Glad to give you the right information. 👍

Not necessarily- the transplant is probably just a coincidence.
My best guess is that you’re seeing the repercussions of improper feeding now, week or two after it needed it.
Says you didn’t start feeding til a week or two ago? Coco needs need essentially from the very beginning. It takes some time for signs of deficiencies to pop up, so I’m thinking it’s just showing obvious signs now from lack of nutrients from some time ago.
Also - I’m not entirely familiar with advanced feeding schedule, but I think .5 mL/L of the base A&B isn’t quite enough.

Slight leaf tip "burn"What do you think is causing this burn on my leaves? It seems to be quite common. and maybe nothing to worry about if it's this minute. but I would prefer to not burn my plants at all if possible. Could it be a sign of underwatering? Light distance? i have a dimmer keepin at 1000a year ago

Plant seems to be dying, should I flush? And if so, any tips?Yellowing & wilting, I suspect the problem is too much silica boost .5ml every other water, combined w/ hot soil (FFOC) & a few feedings, & maybe underwatering(?) as I never have runoff, watered a cup or so every ~48hrs, when soil had dried. LST, no wild temps/hum, great airflow.Leaves. Curl down
