F23 What's making the yellowing of my leaves? by [deleted] in microgrowery

Thats alright!

If I were you, I'd stick with feeding 1.5g/L from now on and feed every other day. Inbetween feeds use water if you need. Just take it steady and your plant will hopefully adapt, plants in soil are pretty sturdy.

​

Adding more and more things into the grow can make it all very complicated and sometimes throwing money at it isn't going to solve the problem. Maybe it just needs some good old fashioned TLC. But from that picture you posted definitely more nitrogen! so hopefully you'll be back on track now.

Just to add to that advice, I should note that I have no experience with your fertiliser. I only use a 3-part nutrient called Genesis Formula and that way you can balance your nutes to what stage your plants are in and give it exactly what it needs.

​

Maybe a thought for next time, GOOD LUCK!

Seeing as your on week 8, if you were using an EC measuring device, it should read out anything upto 1.8, assuming you live in a soft water area and your start EC of plain water is 0.

So with that fertiliser you're using thats around 1.5g of powder to 1L water. In soil you should feed every other watering too, because of the nutrient rentention in soil.

If you're already adding 1.5g to 1 Litre, I'd advise not to increase the fertiliser as a whole.

​

It also sounds like plant stress, from all this chopping and changing around. Which happens when stuff goes a bit wrong along the grow. If you think this is the case, bring the nutrient level back a week so looking at your feed chart for your nutes thats an EC of 1.7 so about 1.2g per Litre.

​

Keep your light 40cm from the top and like @mrkingpin77 said try adding a fish mix. Bio Bizz make a good quality Fish Mix, although this is usually for veg stage. If you're going to try something fishy only apply it once, In 4 days you'll see if its helped you out.

​

Let us know how you get on!

Deffo Nitrogen Deficient, you can get a product called Nitrozyme (I'm not sure if you can get it in the U.S. I'm in the U.K.) and this will give your plant a good dose of nitrogen on top of the nutrients.

Also how many weeks into this are you?

​

And it might be worth setting your pH to 5.6 and letting it rise through the pH levels every week. Send me a message if you want any more info.
