different plant but this is what it turns into...
I have fought this for about 2 weeks. these plants are from seed.
planted from seed into solo cups in happy frog soil
re potted into ffof 12-13-19
only nutes that i have added is cal-mag 4ml per gal
PPm is reading around 800ish
ph of all water added is 6.4-6.5
run off is 6.3ish
rh is 60
temps are 81 day 70 night
light cycle is 18/6
I have also re-calibrated my ph pen 10 times thinking maybe the ph was off but
only thing i can think of is that my night time temps are low but at this time and with it being x-mas time i do not have the funds to buy a heater.
If anyone agrees with my temps being to cold at night would it be ok to switch my light cycle to 24 hrs. and use the lights as a heat source?
Please help!!!!
Thanks Eric!!
What lights are you using and how close?
Kinda looks like over-watering symptoms. How often do you water? What do you use to determine when to water?
I lift the pots to check weight..I think it was a temp issue..i flipped the lights to 24 hrs and i see no more signs of progression. of course the effected leafs will be lost.. I will keep you posted.
By chance are you checking run off pH when it starts running out or the last little bit? I've done that and gotten 6.0 readings and then the last little bit tests 5.5.
I was checking what ran out first...maybe take reading somewhere in the middle?
After thinking about what Mr. Grow it said "over-watering" he may be right also.. over-watering with low temps. Both might be hindering in combination? Low temps = less evaporation? I am running the lights 24/7 which keeps the temps at 81-82.things are looking better, or at least are not worsening.. Thank you !!
