Ah back in the old days i'd just use a digital ph meter since i used to do hydro. now i'm keeping the plant count low and doing it simple, so i'm doing dirt.
SOIL:
How long has this problem been going on? off and on for 3 weeks
What STRAIN are you growing? trinity, applewatta(??)
What was the establishing technique? (seed or clone?) clone
What is the age of your plants? 5,3 weeks
How long have they been in the soil mixture they are in now?3 days
How Tall are the plants?10",8"
What PHASE (seedling, vegetative or flower) are the plants in?veg
What size pots are you using? (Include how many subjects to pot) about 4 gallons square buckets
What substrate/medium are you using? What brand of soil mixture are you using?(percentage of perlite, vermiculite...etc?)moonshine mix +30% coco
What Nutrient's are you using?greenfuse root 1ml per l, liquid karma 2 ml per l, PBP 1 ml per l, every other watering
What is the TDS/EC/PPM of your nutrients used? dunno
What is the pH of the "RUN-OFF"? dunno
What method of pH test was administered? Using Strips? pH pen?using aquarium color changing drops. ph is between 6.2 and 6.8 when watering.
How often are you watering?when dry
When was your last feeding and how often are you feeding?
What size bulb are you using? tt105 420 W
What is the distance to the canvopy? 6"
What is your RH Factor? (Relative Humidity) ??
What is the canopy temperature???
What is the Day/Night Temp? (Include fluctuation range)??
What is the current Air Flow? (cfm etc.)??
Tell us about your ventilation, intake exhaust and when its running and not running ? a box fan, on a timer, 5 on 15 off while lights are running
Is the fan blowing directly at plants? yes
Is the grow substrate constantly wet or moist? it dried all the way out once and they suffered, otherwise not too moist but not dried out
Is your water HARD or SOFT? hard
What water are you using? Reverse Osmosis (RO)? Tap? tap water, left out over night and bubbled.
Has plant been recently pruned, cloned or pinched?not lately
Have any pest chemicals been used? If so what and when?no
Are plant's infected with pest's? minor spider mites on smallest applewatta, i washed it thoroughly and they were set back, will be using insect soap before flowering.
these guys came from a clinic, the trin were gimpy when i got them, they slowly came around, then got dried out when i was gone and my caretaker screwed it up. after slowly coming back they'er doing this funky leaf curl. I think its high ph, i've been lowering the ph a bit more each watering, its not getting better. I am using bromothymol blue chemical coloring drops, 3 drps per 5 ml water. using lemon juice as ph down, just ran out of that and found my old gh ph down. had been feeding plain water for a while, after the roots drying out i got some greenfuse root stimulator to try to help bring them back, have been using that about half strenght for the last few waters.
The applewatta clones were growing vigorously and now have a bit of foldup in the new leaves, kinda taco like. seems like Mg deficiency if i remember? can you foliar feed epsom salts? i just gave these girls a good drink and dont want to over water them to get the mg, but dont want to wait 3-4 days till they're thirsty again. thanks for any help!!
