Yellowing leaves

Renfro said:
You can mix up a foliar feed to help the plant get some nutrients fast. Something around 300 PPM and a pH between 7 and 8. Fish emulsion works great for this as it has a lot of nitrogen (you need that right now). You can also just use diluted nutrients of the GH stuff, I do it all the time.

What about worm cassings

I dunno, I imagine one could make a tea to spray but I would just use a 300 PPM mix of the nutrients you are gonna be mixing up. Just take a little before you pH it and cut it with water to bring the PPM down and make sure the pH is slightly alkaline between 7 and 8. If you foliar feed below 7 you risk creating an environment that powdery mildew likes and with the humidity so high we don't want to get PM started.

May be the high humidity?

Might be keeping the bottoms of the pots wet too.

I dunno if i'm right, but it just looks a little saggy to me. Like there's rot or something.

Think you may be on the right track though.

Gotta go out for a bit. I'll catch up with the thread a bit later.
 
Okay I have fed them again this time I took each plant out of the tent and fed them again using the new ml numbers. I have also opened all the vents and left open the top of the tent like a v to let out some of the moisture. I did check the humidity in the room and it is 30%. I had the tent closed with no vents open could that be why I also had so much water condensation? I leave the fans on but I didn't have any vents open.

Alright, leave it in there a few minutes. See if the ph changes.
Seems to check out to me.

I agree with Renfro, ppms of your feeds?



So how often do you feed?

How many ppm?

Generally i wouldn't bother ph'ing water at all for soil. Also ph 6.5 would be the lowest i ever go.

Are the bottoms of the pots staying soggy between watering / feeds?
I'd consider raising them off the floor a little.
Used to put mine on those ribbed drainer trays. Helped a lot with aeration and drainage.

I use cloth pots so the water that is in the bottom of the trays are normally gone by the evening of the next day and I don't water again until the following Sunday, cause I couldn't figure out why there was so much condensation on the walls. I kept thinking that if there was water on the walls of the tent then the soil must be wet. I kept wiping the walls but it came back. I am hoping since I have the vents open and the top of the tent open that the humidity can move out. I keep the fan on all the time I just couldnt control the humidity.
 
Overnight progress the large tent doesn't have any condensation on the walls. The smaller tent where I keep my seedlings still has some condensation but has minimized. The plants look the same, I was afraid I would wake up and they would all be hanging over. Thank you renfro and Aussie for your quick replies. I felt like I was having an emergency and you guys pulled me out of it. Again thank you so much!!!!

Any ideas what is going on with my plant? I have 4 plants growing currently the other three look okay but this one is turning yellow. This is the third week in flower. Northern lights I feed general hydroponics grow, micro, and bloom, Cal mag with a little molasses, and a small amount of honey. I have rural well water but I use ph down to bring the ph down but I'm clueless. Should I flush this plant? The plant is the first plant on the left side.

honestly I think this is a light penetration issue. I would get another one of the units you have and daisy chain it on the other side.Around week4-5 flower for most strains the older fan leaves will start to yellow, using what’s left of the nitrogen in them. Evweyrhhhg else looks great from the pics I can see.
 
Thread is 6 months old.
The real problem was the use of a hydroponic fert for a soil grow when the soil is ocean forest. The soil has a lot of nutrients in it already. I'm sure those plants died some time ago.
