Hey all, I was wondering if anybody had an idea with what's going on with my plants? Both Purple Punch, in 15 gallon fabric pots, Fox Farm Happy Frog soil, and GH Floranova Bloom. I was using water out of my faucet which I just found out the pH is really high in it. I'm watering every other day to every 3 days (depending how hot it is outside) with nutrient waterings every other watering day. My last watering I adjusted th pH and used over 4 gallons of nutrient solution per plants until I saw about 20% run off. The older leaves are light green, some with edges burning. They are placed around my pool. Any info would be greatly appreciated, this is my 1st out door grow.
Thanks, DG

Light green leaves do not always mean nitrogen deficiency, for instance mag deficiency will cause light green leaves.

If you have burnt tips then you have burnt roots.
This is why I love organics ....takes out the guess work ;)

Well...After reading...It does look like you are over feeding.
That could have happened in the veg stage tho.
I would def give her some epsom salts (1 tbs per gallon of water)
Try to get your ph under control. Collect rain water for your babies.
And feed them as the bottle says.

There is plenty of nitrogen in your nutes. So that shouldn't be it. It could be your water throwing off your ph...and causing lockout. It could just be as simple as it needs some magnesium (Epsom salt)

stop using the water you are tho.... If you can ...or adjust it at least.
It's kind of late to be catching this problem tho. In a few weeks they will be harvested
