Please help. Whats wrong? growth stopped, new leaves are thin and light, tips turn brown, flowers do not bloom, spots on older leaves. I added phosphorus a couple of days ago, today I tried flushing with water with PH 6. All elements should be available in living organic coco.
Open
Buds. Too few
Leaves. Tips - Burnt
Leaves. Color - Pale

Definitely i identify problem as nutrients lockout. How can i fix it now? My opinion is that i will flush it woth water PH6 unitl the water drain will be near point 6. Should I then go back to the autopot, wait a few days, or just use hand watering until the end?

@Roberts OK, what can I do now? Today I flushed the PH6 with water and changed the resolution water and set the PH to 5.8, I have not turned it on yet, I will check the PH in the morning, I guess it will be 6 and I will turn the system back on. I will also go to the growshop and buy calmag. Do you think it's time for a fix or is it RIP?

I am a experienced coco grower and your ph is off in coco. Coco is inhert and has no nutritional value. When it breaks down it produces potassium. So you can use it a few times. Coco needs to always be wet, but NOT sitting in run off. It is Hydro growing in a potter or bag basically. Just it requires cal mag, and constant attention. Your ph in vegging I found best is a 5.8. Flowering 6.1 to 6.2. This needs to be in range for the stage of growth for the plant to absorb nutrients correctly. .1 ph is a big change for the roots. So constant monitoring of your run off ph will fix your issues. When I provide the wrong amount of feed it will easily throw the ph out of line. Coco is high irrigation. Like in mine I griw in 4 Gallon potters and in 2 days they will get a minimum of 4 gallons through them each. Sometimes a lot more if my ph is moving to flush and refresh coco. It is next to impossible to over water in coco as long as it is not in run off. So I would start on the ph. Potassium is what the plant wants most in flowering. Npk ratio is 1-2-3. Good luck. 🌱

Yes. But, again. You can run organic products. Like soil is organic. But, it can't be enhanced. And that's my point. Thanks for your weigh in though.

I honestly think I messed it up by defoliating, but is it worth it to keep trying and wasting time or should I just start over?

Have you seen a pure coco biotabs diary with success. I can't. Anyways. My guess is they throwing your Ph Off. You might get them to work if you ph - your water you use. But, that's just a guess. I really think a soil element is needed pal.

Yes, same way they say enzymes work in coco, or work with coco. But, you need a soil element in them. As they are soil cond mate. Coco can't be enhanced. Just, what I know is all. Everything that's on the market says coco safe....organic products and so on. But, really the point is to enhance soil. Coco can't be.
