Hey everyone.
So without too much explanation, im running a perpetual harvest t5 flouro lighting soil garden with multiple strains from clone. So far i have cut all of the plants in the first group, and am onto cutting some of the plants in the second group...
I am using the monsoon watering technique, with flushing each plants 1 gallon of plain water right before feeding.
I am also growing with organic nutrients from Roots Organics.
Here are some stats.
Nutrients: Roots Organics main line, never going over 1000ppm.
SOil: Fox farms ocean forest/ perlite/organic crutons
Lights: HO-t5
Temp: High, 85-88F sometimes reaching 92-95F daytime
nighttime temps 66-68F
Water ph: 6.5-6.8
Soil ph: 6.5-6.8
Now here is where it gets tricky. In my first group, right around 35 days, into flower, the big fan leaves began to ramshorn.. Within a week, these leaves began to yellow, and brown at the tips, quickly followed by contorting and twisting, and continuing to brown into a dark green/rust color. On the same plants, some of the smaller fan leaves began showing signs of what looks like nutrient burn...
This then progressed and within 2 weeks, almost all of the leaves appeared nute burned, and have died, browned and fallen off. Ive ended up harvesting all of these plants, and the meds are wonderful, however, the overall plant health plummeted within the last 3 weeks of flower.
Group 2 began to do the exact same thing. Except all of the symptoms collided into each other within 1 week. At how old? Right at 35-40 days into flower....
Well if the pattern isnt clear enough already, group 3... doing the EXACT same thing, at the EXACT same age.
What I cant figure is what is causing this.
If im going organic nutrients, in organic soil, flushing with EVERY water, it couldnt be nute burn? Esecially if the ppms are never getting above 1000...
Also as i feed them plain water trying to correct the problems, they just get worse. And trying to feed them some nutrients to correct the problem on some sample plants ALSO made them worse...
I am thinking with a couple of times missing a water day, and the next day they were severely droopy, combined with the high temps, then any little bit of stress could have been magnified...
It couldnt be the PH either as it is staying exactly within 6.5-6.8..
What is wrong with my plants?!
