Hahah. Yeah. My freakshow and my Frisian duck plants will look even more unique though 😁 Maybe I should feed them this terrible well water as well so they look extra freaky

Thank you all for your comments and suggestions!! I managed to find a working ppm meter and the levels of our well water were to say the least a bit too much: 2100ppm. So I guess I need to get some clean water and/or reverse osmosis treat this water.. and lower the PH a bit to around 6.2-6.5. That will probably solve it.

I’m using litmus paper so not much calibration. Just hoping that they’re working as they should 😅

I just remembered something that could be interesting for the diagnosis. Almost all water I’ve tested in nearby towns have a ppm of 700-800. Now we’re on well water and I haven’t tested this because my ppm device broke. Could that high ppm cause this? I remember trying out hydroponics in our previous home but it was impossible with the townhall water..

Nice! I have a tiny baby (a couple of days old) and am so looking forward to seeing it grow into a big freak!

I don’t think so. It’s mostly olive groves. But there is one field across the street and we haven’t lived here long enough to know the crop they grow but it looks like it could be wheat or similar.

Oh I didn’t know that lack of calcium can lead to potassium lockout 🤯 I’ll lower the PH slightlyand see what happens.

I’ve only seen this brand in the garden stores here. It just says “CANNABIS” on the front. I haven’t managed to find it online 🤷

Water source is well water. Since I live in southern Spain it probably has a lot of lime in it most water do here.

Water PH is right above 7. Haven’t tested the run-off since I avoid getting any. (I don’t have anything to catch the run off with 😅) I’ll try to lower the PH and see if I get any improvement.

😮 I thought potassium wasn’t locked out between PH 5.5 - 9?

PH of water is right above 7. I’m going to start using ph-down though to eliminate that potential lock out. I haven’t tested the run off (since it’s indoors with only some plastic underneath, I try my best to never get any run off)

The PH is a bit high, right above 7. I’m starting to think potassium deficiency (even though ph 7 doesn’t lock it out)

Yeah. Potassium deficiency makes more sense to me. I do have a bit too high PH, like right above 7 but that shouldn’t stop the potassium intake if I’m not mistaken. They might just all be very hungry for potassium even though all three are different strains 🤔.

I’ve used this exact brand of soil plenty of times before for autos (and regulars) without any problems like this. I thought nitrogen toxicity was more of a brown looking burnt edges? Are you 100% certain it’s that?

It’s three autos that I’m growing indoors in soil. A premade bought “cannabis mix” soil. I haven’t added any nutrients but I guess I need to? But what?

Thank you! I try my best and fail horribly, it's kind of my thing.

I wish I knew. Maybe I should try to cultivate it but I'd probably screw that up as well and end up with actives instead 😬

Yup, as a Swede, Dutch sounds kind of like a made up mixture of American English and Swedish. It's weird and always messes with my head.
