Cool i fed them all at 6.5 i gave them a lot of Herc and a lot of Oly hopefully that will buffer out. Id say this is officially week 1 of flower. Prolly not a good time to start BK until the slurries are better? I finally get my ppm in range and my ph drops. Do you feed to 100% saturation? I think im going to cut back to 75% and see how that goes.
75% will be good for correcting that low ph, parks the Herc&Oly in the middle of the rootball, but eventually need to get back to little heavier, to saturate and continue to drive salts and acids deeper in the pot. Plus once in full flower its important to maintain moisture levels in the rootzone because too dry can cause all kinds of issues.......over watering too, its fine line And everyone's grow is a little different.
Ya i think I'm overwatering stems are weak on a couple of the yellowing plants. They look way better today after the strong feed at 6.5.
Need to Herc 7.0 as many times as it takes to stabilize it, as your soil ph drops the ppms will go up because the plant isn't taking them up so don't think about your next feed yet. I've been there, we all have......something got off balance somewhere and needs a reset!!
Ya but there still eating i dont get it. Slurrys were 400 6.0 i fed them 1400 6.5 and there ph today is 5.7-6.1 300-500ppms. I just fed them a shit load of herc and oly up the water looks like milk at 7.0ph and 1tbs of gaia.
What do the plants look like, are they showing any negative signs
No not yet 2 of them are starting to look sick. Im sure the rest are soon to follow if i dont get this straightened out.

your using 20 ml oly up per gallon ? I never measure oly up I just add till I get the ph I want ... but I know I dont use that much ... so , how wet is the soil ? and is that ph pen in check ? how bad are these plants ? ph that low is a start of root issues ... you should by now be in a watering habit and now how much there using ... is there any runoff ? and how much ? depending how wet the soil is or dry , good thing you got some foliar experience mite need to use it till we get this straighten out ......
I don't know why this got double posted??........
can you send me it as well please ?
No i used 20ml just for this flush to get some limestone in the soil. I have been using 5ml all the way up till now. I have been feeding every other day when the top of the soil gets crusty. I feed 7 gal pots 3/4 a gallon of feed never any run off. All my slurries up until recent have been 6.6 - 6.8 i just flipped and wanted to see my slurries so i can introduce bk and my ph are bad. My plants look ok except 2 are starting to yellow. I have blue labs ppm i cleaned it and calibrated it the day my ph slurries were low. Idk what happend. Everything was coming around then out of no where my ph dropped to 6.2 then 6.0 now a couple of them are 5.7. Idk man my feed schedule seemed like it was working. Maybe over watering if anyting but i dont think so.
Trying to fix my soils low ph. I dont always feed 20ml its usually 5ml at max just to adjust ph. But scott said to give them more in my flush its what buffers the soil.
Yes for sure!
