Hi
well I just looked at the fox farm soil that u are using and I do not understand how this could have happen.. The few things that I am think- are u using a complete Micro Grow and Bloom feed and are u using a pH pen to adjust your mix? Fox farm is claiming they use an Organic soil mix; were as, I use a sterilized soilless mix. Your potting soil should be more well rounded than mine and would not require u mixing feed for a weeks MIN with your wattage used. This is why I am guess it is your pH.. U need to adjust your pH mix before feeding your plants.. I do not know if u mix your feed and than water your plants, but u need to mix your feed and than check pH- usually a little pH up will be needed.. That all depends on your tap water + season. I am sorry this is taking some time I might have been over looking the standard steps to growing-and since you are new, I should have condisderd that.. Anyways, some good news, your plants look bug free hehe and atleast they are growing..
I they are about week 2 in def and need attention. Vitamax and a balanced micro, grow, bloom will do it.. Thats all. What products are u using by your brand? I can take a peek and see if you are using a 3part or all in one, etc.. or two part such as Sensi grow and bloom.
Anyways, looks clean, I like it!!! Ill keep in touch on PMSG.
For some funny reason I am thinking you are testing pH of soil??

Yea the soil is at about 7.0. Or that is what the cheap ass meter I have says. I have been adjusting the waters ph before I add my nutes.. I will check it after next time to see the difference.

I am using

Botanicare Pure Blend Pro Bloom 1-4-5
Botanicare Pure Blend Pro Grow 3-2-4
Botanicare Liquid Karma .1-.1-.5
Botanicare Sweet 0-0-0
Botanicare CLearex
Botanicare Cal-Mag plus 2-0-0

Thanks Jl

Ooo.. K.. This is what you should do. Apply your nuts first than adjust your pH to make sure your pH is at 6.4 or so..

Well I do not use these products, but this is what I am thinking... Your grow and bloom is your primary frets.. 4/6/10 and what u need to do is organize that to make sure your raitios are right.. What does the bottle say? I want to know what the bottle says for those two.. I dont think u need to use the Cal-mag every water.. I think maybe twice in veg and maybe twice in the beg of flower.. Your sweets sounds like a plant to use from veg on right til you flush.. I say this because it has vits and aminos to make your plant strong and healthy, and to continue the use in flower because it helps with carbs.. Your clearex is your flush.. Dont use yet hehe.
We can organize your feed around your pure blend grow and bloom, than use everything else to be benifical not essential.
I think your mix is a little weak.. I also think that u should try nuts that give u more controll. It wil be less complicated.. I understand the nuts u are using are organic based-and dont get me wrong, good plan but often gives u dificulties in bloom.
Ill keep in touch once I get the recommendation of the bottles... And get that pH down to 6.4 if possiable. Nothing else seems to be the prob unless u are using clorane water which will kill all bacteria that will consume and either die and allow the plant to consume the organism or the bacteria will have a by product that the plant wil consume. Your pureblend relies on this funtion for your plants to feed...
Got any uupdates on pics?

I will post some pics of the plants tomorrow. Here is the nute feeding thing.
I can get the info off of one of the bottles if you need it. Just let me know if you do.. Thanks

Yup the info off the bottles is also needed.. I also think u need a base to your feed program...
I need:
pH, that u water at..
Your feed schedule of each bottle.. (thanks for the feed chart) It is a little unclear because I do not know which chart u are following. I think thinking the top chart on - Or maybe the very bottom.. I also think u are going to need more of a base. Are u using a soilless medium? ( not organic soil) And how do you plants look now?
Did u add Vita max and give them a few drinks of water? -this is what I would do!!! Plants under any stress should always have water instead of feed.. Some say a 1/4 solution but dont if your plants are under root damage..

That being said, I think we should try and get u on a good feed program that will be well rounded. Are u interested in trying something like that? Prob be cheaper hehe and similar.. U will find it easier to either go Organic or Synthetic.. Its kinda difficult to be depended on organic for your major nuts etc.. Its can be fine, just need lots of soil etc.
Ill Private msg u if u want my feed info and nuts.. I dont go excited on stuff but I have what works well for production. Just let me know, along with all the other info.
