Daggit! I bet that is exactly it... Especially with the rye and bone meal!
Though they do say it is rare... Actually I think its the high ph... From greenmanspage.com ... "Also gets locked out due to high pH. Zn, Fe, and Mn deficiencies often occur together, and are usually from a high pH. Don’t overdo the micro-nutrients- lower the pH if that’s the problem so the nutrients become available."

If this is a pH issue then will waiting to let it cook longer solve it? Or add some more stuff?

At what point is the soil able to effectively buffer the pH into the correct range? Or does it all depend on initial inputs?

yes exactly...? i would think watering with phd water to where you want it maybe just a little one way or the other to put soil where you want it.

In my experience, I took the plants out of their pots, knocked off as much dirt as I could, rinsing if need-be, then repotting them in dilluted soil. For example, dilute your organic soil 50/50 with some coco or sphagnum peat moss and then check the SOIL ph again.

My plants immediately recovered from the ph (being too low in my case) and I fed them AACTs as needed, which it sounds like you just did if I read correctly.

I personally think thats paranoa. I've been building computers since I was 8 and am very familiar with how to track someone. Your IP address is already logged on this forum and it's already too late :p. You've admitted to guilt on a public forum which is enough evidence for probable cause.

Pictures (especially uploaded to tinypic) are the least of your concern. They're skewed/resized by the server when you upload so I HIGHLY doubt any miscellaneous information, such as camera specifications, will persist.

well if you are a legal grower, it doesn't matter.
Ha. What is "legal"? What is lawful? Of course what I Am doing is legal/lawful, but whether or not it follows the arbitrary Code of regulations... No it does not. But Fuck the code.! True Laws Must Stand. Not Domicilary Vexation.!

if you are in a legal state like Colorado or Washington or soon to be D.C., Alaska and Oregon or if you are in a medical mj state and you have a mmj recommendation. Then you are a legal grower.

iron and zinc both come from a good clay/silt content in the soil. It's very rare true soil will lack iron, but if it really does, it's easy to add back with rust or iron sulfate. (inorganic, but compatible with organics unlike nitrate salts)

If you have iron deficiency in soil, it's most likely from using too much limestone.

Disclaimer: I don't currently grow in soil.

Disclaimer #2: I didn't read the whole thread yet. I think I'm going to leave the organics section. I was drawn in the by the title of the thread.

As an added safety, if you're using a smart phone, make sure to turn off the GPS location in the meta data, and use an application that strips image meta data before uploading just to make sure it doesn't have any information like your exact coordinates in the picture's meta data. Just something to keep in mind if you're worried.

you all should be proud.! first time ever posting pictures of my girls.! we shall see if This is cause to Warrant search and seizure.!.
