    Trying to Salvage this Grow

    Thank you! This was one of the most helpful posts I’ve read on multiple sites, concise and knowledgeable...will give this a shot and be back!

    Trying to Salvage this Grow

    Lol love the reference, but not sure I’m following..too light on the nutes or too heavy?

    Trying to Salvage this Grow

    Sorry PPM of water with nutes was around 200ppm, although I only used plain water on the last watering.

    Trying to Salvage this Grow

    - Using tap water that comes out of the tap at 45ppm - after mixing nutes (2mg calmag/2mg Tiger Bloom/7 mg big Bloom - per gallon) - I always adjust the ph after mixing in the nutes and used ph up to get it to 7ph (again this was an attempt to raise the ph of the soil because runoff was around...

    Trying to Salvage this Grow

    Is thanks!!! And noted. I imagine the feeding schedule above isn’t tailored to happy frog soil (which runs a little hot) or autoflowers (which are supposedly a bit sensitive to nutes)?

    Trying to Salvage this Grow

    I used grow big (about 1/4 rev strength) but it caused pretty severe nute burn, what I’m guessing is that the soil had enough to take the plants all the way to flower (which I plan on doing the next grow)...understood on the run off not being a great indicator, but I’m just trying to get as much...

    Trying to Salvage this Grow

    Sorry, should’ve been more specific. I’m using Fox Farm Tiger Bloom, big Bloom, and CalMag. I bumped up the ph of the water going in because I was told that my runoff ph was too low (runoff was around 5.7 when I was giving 6.5 water). They seemed to have done better when I bumped up the water ph...

    Trying to Salvage this Grow

    So I was overfeeding them, flushed them with plain water and they bounced back and looked great. Then I fed them 1/4 recommended strength nutes, and the yellow/browning started. If runoff ppm isn’t a good indicator of whether this is a deficiency or overfeeding, what can I do to nail this down?

    Trying to Salvage this Grow

    Hi all, looking for some advice as i'm at my wits end. This is my first grow, so please bear with me. Strain - White Widow Autos Soil - FF Happy Frog (added a top dressing of Perlite and Dolo Lime a week or two ago - will be adding these directly into the soil on my next grow) Light - Mars...

    Deficiency or Disease?

    Oh! I forgot to mention that I added some dolo lime (very fine) as a top dressing as well...this was only a few days ago though so I imagine it’ll take some time to bounce back. You think if I get the ph up to 6.5 they’ll bounce back? Why is it that only one of the plants is being hit so hard...

    Deficiency or Disease?

    Not initially, but I top dressed with some 3 weeks ago and it helped. Will definitely be doing 30-40% perlite on the next run. For what it’s worth the pots seem to be drying out pretty quickly every 3-4 days. The runoff PH was 5.8ish which seemed low, so I’ve bumped the water going in to around...

    Deficiency or Disease?

    Sorry, should’ve been more specific! Growing in Happy Frog, these are White widow autos. Not sure if you can see my post history but I had some nute build up in late veg that seemed to have been fixed after I flushed them, the brown spots are new and seem to be spreading. While the other plants...

    Deficiency or Disease?

    Hey all, over the past week the leaves of my plant have started turning yellow with brown spots. I have been ph’ing the water and only feeding light nutes (1/4 strength)...my other 3 plants are going fine and it seems that this “sick” plant is still fattening up the buds, so I’m not sure what’s...

    Ph issue or light burn?

    Actually yes, I used a neem oil/water/drop of dawn soap solution About a month ago, but tried to take care that it wasn’t on the leaves only the soil. Additionally, it seems that the discolor is relatively new..could this be the issue?

    Ph issue or light burn?

    Hey All! I think I’m having some trouble in the ph department. Specifically keeping ph up, which I think is causing a bit of potassium def. (included some pictures below). These are white widow autos that are a few weeks into flowering. They are in FF Happy Frog and I’ve been feeding them with...

    To Till or Not

    Hi all, so I wanted to get thoughts on something. I am currently growing white widow autos indoors, which are currently at the flowering stage. After a flush on Saturday (there was some nute build up and the flush helped immensely), I’m thinking about my next watering. Obviously I’m waiting for...

    Every mistake imaginable.

    So I flushed one of the plants yesterday (6.5ph water, no nutes), and today it seems to have perked up and looks healthier all around (before and after below). I must have had all the salts and nutrients built up by the roots, I know understand the importance of a good flush! Will be flushing...

    Every mistake imaginable.

    Thanks! I think i'll take your advice and finish these out, and go for photos on the next run. Flushing them for the first time right now and from the ppm of the runoff, they've been overfed for weeks. Glad I finally got a TDS meter.

    Every mistake imaginable.

    So I want to preface this by saying that this was my very first grow, and i'm chocking it up to a bust/learning experience. I have made every mistake imaginable during the past few months, from having to leave them for a week due to an emergency, to overwatering and nute burn. I like to think...
