Growth has slowed down considerably. I flushed her out 3 days ago and the pot is still heavy with water, normally it would have been light by now, so now there's also the possibility of root rot.
Lime is probably the one thing I forgot to add.
The epsom salts should take care of that right?
wrongwrong, how do you feel about the transplanting idea? Sound good or should I just leave her in the same pot?
Neither do I, but in this case it might actually help the situation. I just don't know.
If leave it I might have nothing by harvest, so I have nothing to lose. I also found that crushed oyster shells plus epsom salts is a good substitute for dolomite lime. I can get the shells from my gardening center and I have epsom salts.
I'm going to mix a new batch of soil tomorrow. equal parts compost and perlite and a few tbs of crushed oyster shells. I don't want to complicate things. Then I'll resume feeding with my bloom 0-10-10 fertilizer, maybe a small amount of nitrogen fertz?
@RetroGrow- if I see movement in the root mass, that's aphids? Anything that can be done about that?
i didn't read through the rest of the thread only till the bottom of page one. forgive me.
nitrogen deficiency.
ph is pretty low for soil, but so far i only see nitrogen deficiency.
if its only day 26 of flower then why are you saying it is too late for this plant? will it explode soon? none of my plants ever do that. just feed it more nitrogen and call it a day. come back and let us know how your plant is doing in 2 weeks.
just copy paste. im sure they'll tell you the same, if you read the plant it tells all. salt buildup and overfert would show definite burning and spotting, leaves would wilt etc. ph is low but not too bad, i would find out why your soil is so acidic. are you ph adjusting up your tap water before watering the soil or down? if the tap water is high in ph just add more or don't ph down to 7 before you water and the runoff should come out higher. i usually find the healthiest plants are running off to around 6.5-7 range. too high above 7 and i usually see clawing from over nitrogen and if it goes much below 6 i see mag def and p and k pop up over night.
all i see on your plant is nitrogen def. but seek other opinions before making a decision, at the end of the day you are the only one who can see and touch the plants and decide what's best.
