im not sure what it going on- w/ pics

so- now im not sure whats going on with my babies, after the new leaves come thru they start getting lighter and then the tips start burning and curling up and then they die.

the smallest plant in the pic, has no nuts, and been watering it 2 times a day with bottle water.

the bigger plants are on half power nuts, (dutch masters).

At 1st i thought it was but burn, till i germ the last little plant. i washed everything out nice and clean and gave it no nuts and now its doing the same thing.
so next i thought it might be the light thats burning it? so i raised the light 2 days ago. but i dunno if thats it.

any help on what i should do would be appericated.

all under a 400w mh light

looks like nitrogen def. imo.

Well there you go.

Jk lol - Looks like a deficiency or too much nutes.... No idea.

To be on the safe side - you know what you're gonna do?

You're going to flush the whole thing and then give it no nutes for a few days, then give it the same dose advised on the bottle.

Make sure the nutes you're using have everything that the plant needs... Nitrogen, Phosphorous, Potassium, Calcium, etc, etc...


Good luck

It's your water PH. The fact that all the plants are experiencing this is proof. They appear to be in need of nutrients because the ph of the water is stopping the plant from taking them in.

what Ph shoudl i have them at- 6.8 correct ? for hydro? i have it around 6.5? is it to high or low?

I believe for hydro you want a slightly lower pH compared to soil. 5.8 - 6.3 I believe.

and you were right- it was the PH, i went out and bought a electric ph meter, and when i tested the water it was 7.7 ph.
i dunno how it got so high- i mean i was using the chemical ph crap, eh oh well, i have it all set at 5.8 now- see how they do.
