Always produce drain while using organic fertilizer?
trelornystarted grow question 7 months ago
I think I made a big mistake in this very first grow, so here is the question: Should I always water enough to produce some drain? Even when using organic fertilizer?
Until now I did not have a single drain in the whole grow as I water ~10-15% of the pot volume.

I grow all organic in a living soil bed. No drain, never. When I used fabric pots I tried to avoid drain in General.
Keep it moist.
Just make sure to have a good amount of material for airation such as pumice, vermiculite or perlite in your soil.

Nutrient burn/Lockout? PH LowSo 1 of my plants is having a hard time in my low PH Soil I'm seeing the start of brown tips on newer leaf growth. I was wondering if I should water frequently and keep the soil more wet with higher PH water or let it dry out and slow the nute uptake? and risk high PH at roots?Week 4

Deficiency/Light Stress IssuesWhat else can I do? Brown curled tips and spots on older fan leaves climbing up towards main cola. Flushed with pH’d RO yesterday, but was only able to get pH to 6.7, also added small dose CalMag at end of flush. Light wattage has also been reduced by half for the last week.

Sick leaves, good budsSome leaves look sick. (Last photos at 8 weeks) Is this an overdose? Do I need to fix this? From fertilizers, I apply only ripen. I plan to give it 2-3 times and then flush and harvest.
I know that ripen helps to end life and makes the leaves turn yellow, but not so!4 years ago

help! my plant is turning pale. the green color is losing.the green color is losing. some leaves burn from the tip to the stem of the leaf. Excess fertilizers (because I fertilized the soil) or deficiencies due to few nutrients? I also thought that it can burn with nearby lights, but the ones that burn are far away

Is this due to the sun and hot weather?Some parts of some leaves are looking like they're burnt or something.
Is this due to the sun? Or do I have another problem?
It has been extremely hot last week (around 35 degrees all week). And the plant has been in direct sunlight (I've moved it into the shade yesterday)
