Hi all
My outdoor plants have been growing great until recently when I noticed some yellowing of leaves on a couple of my plants. I first noticed it a couple weeks ago and within a few days I noticed it spreading from the bottom on plant #1. I checked the ph (with a bluelab soil meter) and found all three of my plants were all low with the ph hovering around 5. I figured it was just nutrient lockout because of the low ph and picked up some dolomite and top dressed my plants to bring up the ph. About a week later the ph had came up to 6 or above for all plants but they were still yellowing slowly. Plant #1 now has yellow leaves working its way up the branches. Next watering I added some Epsom salt (at 1 tbsp per gallon) to see if the mg would help, they all seemed to like it but it didn't stop the yellowing. Another week and all plants continue to yellow slowly. I now feel like they are N deficient from the reading I have done. Before I try to treat a N deficiency I thought I would reach out here for help first. I don't want end up adding to much N and messing up flowing, but I realize going into flowering with a deficiency is not good either. I was thinking of adding alfalfa meal or blood meal in water as a top dressing to help with the N deficiency?
Soil:
I have the plants in 30gal fabric pots with SeaSoil Complete.
Nutrients:
I am using the full Remo lineup of nutrients as directed by the package. I have been feeding about once every week when possible during Veg. The last two feedings have been each 3 days and I have added the flowering nutrients as well currently feeding around 1000ppm. Veg feedings were about 500-600ppm.
Watering:
For the last month I have had to water about once a day on the hot days and each other day too each three days if its not sunny. For plant #3 on really hot days it needs two waterings or it gets droopy leaves, but as soon as I give her water she starts praying again. I use a moisture meter and water when a plant is dry.
Plant #1
Plant #2
Plant #3
Thanks in advance for any help.
