HELP! Can this be saved?

[Cantgrow]

Hydro grow. Check pH daily keep between 6-6.5. The entire grow I’ve had problems with the leaves turning yellow shortly after they appeared. Raised the light thinking it might be causing it but it continued and seems to be getting worse now the top leaves even have spots. Can it be saved? What am I doing wrong?

 

[SirSmksAlot]

Try lowering your ph a bit. 6-6.5 is a bit high for hydro. I aim for between 5 lowest and 6 highest. You prob have a lockout of some type. What is your feeding schedule like?

 

[Mr.furley]

Do you give calmag?

 

[Mjdub]

Yes it looks like lock out it can be saved but you need to act asap.

 

[Cantgrow]

Been following this for feeding schedule. I ordered calmag should be here within the next day or two. I did try putting some magnesium Epsom salt in the water, hopefully that wasn’t a mistake.

Mjdub what do you suggest doing?

 

[Mr.furley]

You need calmag asap and to be Ph'ed between 5.8 to 6.3.

 

[SirSmksAlot]

Do you have any ph down? You need to lower your ph so the your plants can uptake the nutrients. The calmag should help too. Do you know the ec or how many ppm your nutrient solution is?

 

[Cantgrow]

I do have pH down can add it now. I’m not sure it came with the box I got without labels

It looks like fertilizer burn to me, ? U could have stunted her a bit and it will effect your yield at the end but it can still b a good smoke🍀

 

[Mjdub]

Be careful with oh down it do sent take much I have foxfarm Rasta Gringo I used 1 drop when my water was a 9 something and it brought it down to a 5 something

 

[Mjdub]

Ph down I mean

 

[Cantgrow]

Should I cut the yellow leaves off?

 

[Mjdub]

Its already having a hard time I don't know if I would just yet if it's an auto and she's already stressed you might really stress her out and if its a photo you probably could cut some of the yellowing off.

 

[Potted]

Just leave her grow she will work it out as long as ph is in the right range 😁

 

[Cantgrow]

Thank you. One more question for the Cal-Mag how much and how often should it be added?

 

[SirSmksAlot]

I use 5ml/gallon every water change. I only add my nutes at water change and during the rest of the week I top up with ph'd water only.

 

[Cantgrow]

When I switch to bloom what should the ph be at ?

 

[SirSmksAlot]

I like to keep mine between 5 to 6. But it's important to let it fluctuate a bit. Different nutrients are absorbed at different ph levels

Keep trying i never give up on my babies i have tor off roots before to get rid of root rot still ended up with killer bud what color are you're roots could have root fot i use hydroguard usually works great dont give up on her
