I put like 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup wormcastings with 1/4 cup molasses into a gallon jug with my water, aerated for 36 hours, then water both of my plants until they felt heavy and I getting runoff.

Gzz,A tbl spoon per gallon on the M,That much is where you went wrong!!!Just use plain water now for a few weeks,this will let the soil buffer ph.I thought we already told you about the amount of M per gallon?

This was after I made that first batch, and you said it was too much then you said something and I think I thought you meant it was fine, but I remember you saying just to trash it too. Yeah I think a screwed up a little bit. :sad:

Well I did say I wasn't going to add anything anyways yet lol, but anyways yeah I was comparing my water pH, not the runoff. So should I water just enough to get a little runoff with my normal water and see what the pH is?

A PH problem won't show up all of a sudden like that.
Sorry I hadn't said anything but I had to go back several pages to see you HAD answered my question.
My tap comes out at 7.9 and I have no PH issues in soil.
I think, even though it took 6 days to show, it's related to your brew in one way or more.
Looking at what you did for the tea, I'm guessing it may have been too thick and screwing with the roots perhaps, using that much Molasses.
IDK, I don't do teas, but that sounds like an awful lot to me, since when I add Molassas, I use 1 Tbsp/ gal.

Most growing issues are self induced :)

This one in which I would consider flushing, keep an eye on the leaves and if the necrosis continues to spread think about flushing your puts with straight water.

Alright, yeah I think I just really dropped the ball on that brew. I gave them a good watering last night so if I see anything continue, I'll flush. Also going to add a humidifier to raise the rH.

I use the plantation blackstrap molasses, comes from the grocery store and I also use it when making BBQ sauce for ribs.

Well on a good note, got the humidifier running in there without a hitch. It has 2 speeds so I'm running it on the lower speed to see how much it raises the rH before I put it on the higher speed.

  • Blackstrap molasses is the better ingredient because it is primarily sucrose but contains a wide variety of other simple carbohydrates, as well as a high mineral content and potassium (K). Many of the organic fertilizers/amendments that are used including guano, bone and other meals don't contain very much K.

Well the rH is up to 63%, and it seems like the cool water in the humidifier is helping cool down the plants a couple degrees.
