Pre 98 Bubba Help!

[ostettd]

Hello all.
Currently, I'm growing pre 98 bubba (from seed).

They were doing perfectly well before i noticed what looks like to be the start (maybe not) of nitrogen defficiency? (i'm new at this so please bear with me!)

I'm growing in a tent, with a 1000 watt HPS.

I water about every 3rd or 4th day at 6.0 and 400 ppm (i've attached a picture of the nutes i use)

Any ideas as to what i'm doing wrong? Or why the plants look like that?

Any help would be greatly appreciated..

Thanks!

I would bring your ph to 6.5 that is the best ph for roots to accept nutes in my understanding. maybe you should look into some flora micro for your micro nutes they can prove to be very important. I think they look good and most issues like that at that age I have noticed go away better with time then you trying to correct it

What are micro nutes? Also that container i'm holding says 5.5 to 6.5 so i kinda went into the middle... haha i guess 6.5 is better for pot plants?

I always stick to 6.5 with really good results and from my research of reading it is the best spot to be. its called flora micro it comes in a gal jug for $30ish you only need a few mil per gal. up to 5 mil per/gal is my max that I go

They just look under watered to me. In those pics the soil looks dry and the plants look thirsty. I'd say it's about time to transplant them and then the 3-4 day watering schedule will be just fine until the roots are more established and the plant is bigger. Don't over do it on nutes and as mentioned, you might try to get your ph up a little.

So am I replacing my nutes for those? Or is it added to the mix? Is it every watering or every after? What do they do exactly?

Thanks

You have the flora nova grow witch is part of a series of nutes. In your series there is Flora Nova grow, Flora Nova bloom, rapid start, liquid koolbloom, floralicious plus. For their simple drain to waste nutes plan. I use flora series simple drain to waste plan and it works great and is a lot cheaper! If you are continuous growing. Check my journal and you will see what flora series has done for me. I water with nutes every time and have had no ill effect. Look around GH webpage and you will find pre made feeding schedules

1000w HID light is a bit too much for them right now, is it dimable or do you have 100w of CFL to use on them right now. also they look like they need to be transplanted. might just be root bound and blinded by the light.

I don't see anyone else saying it, so I will: they look overnourished to me. Mild nute burn and the fleshy turgor of "overeating". I would nix nutes for a week or so and just use water. cn
