Coco problem

Reaper
Reaperstarted grow question 4 years ago
The anubis (picture from day 9) u can see there was a litle calmag issue (brown dots) now, the new growth is a bit CURLY, is this because of the calmag issue? also the cheese is in the same coco/feed and has no issues at all, i use 6-9 formula + 0.5ml calmag/liter

I would have to go back and ask how you preped that coco. That is the biggest source of issues in that medium, improperly prepared, not washed well enough, or not buffered correctly. Coco does not technically need perlite but it sure makes thing work better, 20-40% is the range I prefer 25%. Now yours seems that the coco was not buffered correctly. Could use some perlite but thats not your issue. What happens is the coco begins pulling calcium away from the plant and that is a calcium issue you have friend. Some strains will react to this situation worse than others, high need of calcium or magnesium. Giving that plant more is about all you can do your PH is fine 5.8-6.0 are perfect. And in coco you feed from the start of those true leaves. Gently but you feed. Hope it works out 😀

@TheReaper hi mate I believe you are correct in that being a calcium issue but its caused from an incorrect ph at the roots you will need to adjust the feeds ph to about 5.9 and the run off should be within a range of 5.8-6.2

plants of that size don't need calmag and if you have a good substrate they don't even need any growth fertilizer, just root stimulator. looking at the substrate, see if it has practically no perlite or vermiculite, it could be PH, but due to the age of your plants, I don’t think so, I think you’re giving a lot of water in each irrigation, the substrate is very wet, the roots don’t breathe and they do not develop soon the plant also stops developing and goes into stress. let the soil dry well, try to add some pearlite to your soil and give small amounts of water for each irrigation. good luck mate 👍

It looks like a ph issue to me. Have you checked the runoff pH?
