I am using mantis nutrients for my outdoor it's not so much the yellowing of leaves but more of the brown spots that has me worried didnt ph my outdoor at all I do have some stuff called micro mass I believe I'll add that even giving the correct ratio of nuts this go ph is way dow in the 4.6 area and when I used ph up it barley brought it up so going grab some baking soda today and use that. I hope this plant turns around but quite worried on a correct fix. I have never used molasses before can i just buy grocery store molasses?2-Scoops wrote: ↑Sat Sep 25, 2021 3:26 pmYes it sure looks like underferting to me, carry on feeding ferts each feed mate, yellow leaves wont come good now so don`t sweat on those and i doubt you will see many newer green leaves appearing once its in full bloom, but plants should still carry on packing on weight if you feed ferts every feed at correct ratios. Don`t know what ferts your using and am pretty much not best clued if they`re of the organic type, but i`d maybe give the soil a drench with a molasses/water feed to wake up any microbes to help with breaking down organic fert matter in that area and I'd repeat that weekly. But if using synthetic base ferts carry on feeding at correct ph. Tbh i think synthetic base ferts would get the plants home much easier than using organic type now, but what do i know. Tom ferts grow great big weed plants.
Any full on proper yellow leaves just remove them, they are doing absolutely nothing good what so ever.

Im with @2-Scoops, underfed. This could be a PH issue though as nutes are available to plants at certain ranges, defo looking underfed and advanced mag def by that picture.
What nutes are you feeding? are they bottled etc. Im no soil grower but id be looking to get a good dose of veg feed them.

Top dressing your soil with dolomite lime or burnt wood ashes should help raise ph over time. Burnt wood ash and lime also contain goodies like calcium, magnesium and a theirs also few other elements that will help plant along budding up in flower that`s in burnt wood ashes, more so if growing organically like though, but ts usually a good idea to prep soils a good month or so before planting up.Wayne36 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 26, 2021 3:35 pmI am using mantis nutrients for my outdoor it's not so much the yellowing of leaves but more of the brown spots that has me worried didnt ph my outdoor at all I do have some stuff called micro mass I believe I'll add that even giving the correct ratio of nuts this go ph is way dow in the 4.6 area and when I used ph up it barley brought it up so going grab some baking soda today and use that.

End of shift its all tosh now cus your not far off getting plant their so jobs a good en mate

Re: It's been awhile 👊😎
Yea that's why I never thought of going the water as I thought and read it wasnt need but after correcting the right nute mix ph was at like 4.62-Scoops wrote: ↑Mon Sep 27, 2021 1:03 pmTop dressing your soil with dolomite lime or burnt wood ashes should help raise ph over time.

Re: It's been awhile 👊😎
Its the life in your soil that buffers the soil to correct ph, basically that micro life stuff if its plentiful down their in your medium it will do all that cus they live and thrive around ph 6.5 (if i remember rightly) from what i read. Peeps opinions will differ here, but I'm of the thinking you ph synthetic ferts and not so the organic type if growing in dirt, i maybe wrong but tis what it is.Wayne36 wrote: ↑Tue Sep 28, 2021 6:42 pmYea that's why I never thought of going the water as I thought and read it wasnt need but after correcting the right nute mix ph was at like 4.62-Scoops wrote: ↑Mon Sep 27, 2021 1:03 pmTop dressing your soil with dolomite lime or burnt wood ashes should help raise ph over time.
