So I think I have a case of nitrogen overdose. Getting clawing. Photo is current day (most recent)
The bucket is 950ml, I use 500ml of aged water, water treatment plant doesn't use chloramine only chlorine at 1ppm so it evaporates readily in a day.
Here is my mix formula:
__________________________
Phosphoric acid = 4 drops
______________________
H2O2 = 1.5ml
1/500 = 0.002
0.002 x 500 = 1ml L.S.W.
KNO3 = 0.13 g
CaNO3 = 0.50 g
KH2PO4 = 0.33 g
MgS = 0.25 g
_______________________
Amended 75% Veg Formula
H2o2 = 1.5ml
L.S.W. = 1ml
KNO3 = 0.0975
CaNO3 = 0.375
KH2PO4 = 0.2475
MgS = 0.1875

This photo is from ten days prior roughly, i was having issues with nitrogen deficiency at that time but since started using a Nitrate combination of Cal Nitrate & Potass Nitrate to balance the NPK better.
I began supplementing more heavily with P & K under advice from this chart.
The rootball in the netcup has grown into a peat pellet.
My thoughts on the matter is perhaps the rootball is saturated with a high amount of nutes and needs to be flushed?
I amended my formula and scaled everything back by 25%.
H2o2 was kept at 3% consistent with earlier formula, same with liquid seaweed @ 1/500th. = 1ml.
I am thinking I am going to maintain N @ 185ppm and lower the PK levels to 50% original values.
Any advice on the matter greatly appreciated.
