View attachment 1640831View attachment 1640832 this was week 5 got really bad an they pretty much quit growing

So basically I cannot add cal-mag with my fox farm. Can I just give cal-mag! But then the plant would be missing other nutes!

 

[sweetswisher]

Why can't you add cal mag

 

[sweetswisher]

You can use it with other nutrients man. I use it with every watering now actually. Just use it half strength
do you use purified water all the time? or do you use tap water also?

 

[doggyd]

Why can't you add cal mag

You are saying, Use cal-mag, use Big bloom and Tiger bloom, all together! If you are saying that, Its because when I add just Big Bloom and tiger bloom to my water, the water PH is 7.0, once added nutes, ph DROPS TOO like 4.8, I have to add alot of PH UP too bring up PH LEVEL To 6.8. So If you say add BIG BLOOM, tiger bloom and cal mag, then I might as well just give her the whole PH UP BOTTLE because its going to drop below 4.8 thats for sure!

Mostly purified water but sometimes, very rare tap...only use tap when i cant buy purified.

 

[sweetswisher]

In that case just calmag at half strength an thats it. to be honest i don't check my ph at all and I've never had problems

 

[sweetswisher]

I called fox farn at one point \and they guy told me if I'm using reverse osmosis water I'd need a cal mag booster even tho tiger bloom has calcium and magnesium and I believe the 3 solubles do also.

 

[doggyd]

Really! So you add all that and the grow is fine! Really! How!

 

[sweetswisher]

Ya you think I'm trying to bs you man? Im tryin to help

 

[sweetswisher]

good luck man sorry my help doesn't seem accurate when It comes to ph and what not, but thats what I use

Well what kind of soil are u using! Are you doing like a special mix of soil or something!

 

[sweetswisher]

no happy frog with more vermiculite and worm castings mixed in

 

[doggyd]

See Im using FOX FARM soil as well as the nutrients. Maybe this is the problem, I was thinking of going to PRO mix or something!

 

[sweetswisher]

actually those plants in the pics were in mg moisture contol soil

Heya man, just catching up on your thread! I kinda lost it back where you posted new pics. Runoff was low so you flushed but why not with pH'd water, i don't get that part and then you seem to have a slight problem with using pH up, i use it all the time with my nutes and it seems ok.

Maybe i am missing somthing but when you flushed what did you get the pH of the runoff at? Should be pretty similar to what you put it in the soil at?

I can flush forever and never get my runoff above 5.5.. Im still confused. So

 

[Kingrow1]

Then that my freind is a very serious situation indeed and you need professional help. I always bring the runoff up when i flush, i flush slowly and the more i flush the more my pH comes up to what i want. 5.5 is very bad!!

 

[doggyd]

Ok. I wanted to give everyone an update on my plant.
The FUKEN black dots and yellow leaves have returned, which are turning crisp and looks to be dying off. I tried everything, flushing, picked up some cal mag, Every thing and It just keeps returning. I'm changing the product of my soil next grow, this is fuking annoying already. I think its all in the soil, every grow so far using the same brand soil, I keep getting this CRAP. I'm pissed. She has been flowering for about 2 weeks now!

Is this going to hurt the production of my bud?

 

[asaph]

yeah it probably is... you should read again what I wrote here before... It might help.
