HELP PLEASE! Plants are getting yellow!!! Dying???

Adobear420 · Oct 19, 2020

What is going on with this 1 plant... hope to fix it and i really hope the others don't start doing the same. First time grower. New to all this. Please help! These were transplanted from 1gal bags to 5gal bags one month ago. I use oceanforest fox farms soil. I currently have not used any nutrients since transplant. I have the fox farms nutrient line up. They were doing terrible as i gave to much nutrients a while back. Then i flushed them. They were transplanted to these 5 gal pots and recovered. Now all the sudden i am seeing problems with one of them.

You are going to see all of them do that real soon. Starving they are.

thats a plant that needs nitrogen, go ahead and feed it.
go ahead and feed it, you may find you have to feed the others soon if the same starts happening

I have the original trio fox farms liquid nutrients and cal mag. Any idea what i should mix and how to start doing this?

go go kid · Oct 19, 2020

you need a high Nitrogen food if there still growing, cal mag will stop them from getting deficancies of cal mag as long as your ph is ok
so yes go ahead and use it, it wont hurt them at all, but im not familier with how offten you give cal mag. so wait for someone with a little more info then i have. ill look it up on the search bar

Im using ff trio too, but im also 1st timer. I followed the instructions for my 1st lady, a GSC, and in week 5 of flower she started to show some nutrient burn. I would reccomend halfing them but thats just me, & my plant wasnt starving. I only fed mine the general feeding doses every other week as instructed. I also use cal mag. Hope i could be some help

this may be of some help, im sure others with fox farmknollage will chime in with thererecomendationds, plenty of growers here with experiance with fox farm.
i will be watching too as i have some fox farm nutes myself and dont know how to use them either yet

I would give them each a gallon of tap water that's sat out for at least 12 hrs to let the chlorine evaporate. In each gallon put 4tbs big bloom, and 3tsp grow big. Add pH up so it's at least 7 going in, and between 6-7ph coming out.

Any leaves that have gone yellow, will not turn green again, but if you don't notice any more leaves turning yellow, problem solved.

Oh yeah and 5ml calmag in each gallon. I even use it on seedlings because ffof is really hot. I'm honestly surprised you've managed to get your runoff ph'd at 6.8. That tells me it's outta nutes...

Okay so 4 tablespoons of grow big each gallon or teaspoons? Just wanna be sure. Also how many times a week do you feed them with nutrients?

tbs is table spoons

HELL NO DUDE!!! 4 tablespoons of BIG BLOOM, 3 teaspoons of grow big. Big bloom is gentle, grow big is very very strong.

You can give them these nutes every other watering. The instructions I gave you are literally what it says on the back side of the bottles lol.

Even that sounds like WAY too much Big Bloom to me. My recipe is:

Per 2 Gallons Water - Veg:
2 teaspoons Cal Mag
2 teaspoons Grow Big
1 tablespoon Big Bloom
3 teaspoons PH Down
Add more PH Down as needed to PH = 6.50

When watering 4 plants in 5 gallon fabric pots, I use 1.5 gallons per plant, or 6 gallons each watering session. I will mix the first 2 gallon batch, water all 4 plants, wait 30 minutes to soak, then mix batch 2 of the same recipe above. Water, wait 30 minutes.

I then mix a 3rd batch of "plain" water as follows:

Per 2 Gallons Water - Final Runoff:
2 teaspoons Cal Mag
3 teaspoons PH Down
Add more PH Down as needed to PH = 6.50

I am using Fox Farms Happy Frog medium. Be careful with the Big Bloom, I use it every time I water, but I never use more than 1 tablespoon per 2 gallons or I risk damage to the plants, confirmed by trial and error.

HELP PLEASE! Plants are getting yellow!!! Dying???
