How badly polluted is American water mate? I'm in Scotland and it 100% does not make a difference if you leave it out to dechlorinate or just fire it straight in. Ph7.4 @ 48ppm from the tap. All you guys seem to need RO machines or buy bottled just to keep them alive. Can you even drink the tap water?

I am on my own well and it's pretty good water with no added chemicals. It ph at 8.0 strait from the tap
That's some damn good water you guys have Barney, I'm 2x cleaner than state average in California and still running 240ppm...

effin awesome rootball brother!!!rootbound? nice attempt but wrong, people grow rootbound plants in coco in 1 gallon containers that yield 9 ozs and they dont do that.. that looks like an initial ph inbalance, either the bottoms of the tips are touching nute water in the soil or you started the phosphorus too high. either one of those three are more acceptable answers.
here are my rootbounds healthy as all hell.

hey since we have some ph pros on here, can you help me decipher whats wrong with my leaf?
is this from ph too low maybe? i have thought it was fungus gnats but the plant still growing great

I am thinking some outside stressor... gnats could explain it. Since it isnt being replicated either above or below it, I am not thinking it is an internal problem. A good mulch stops gnats... just sayin.hey since we have some ph pros on here, can you help me decipher whats wrong with my leaf?

Here are a couple more picks of my leaves Emilya. I just transplanted them last night. The plants seem very perky and healthy other than the bottom leaves.

cool thanks emilya, i had read that roots being harmed causes twisted leaves, along with ph issues, but ive been pretty careful about correct ph going in so i guess going to assume its the gnats.
plant is growing great still btw, so im praying that things go smooth

Thanks so much, should I leave the leaves alone and let the plant just do it's thing?

Of course... let the plant decide if it wants to lose a leaf or not. Damaged they become your canary in the coal mine, letting you know if a problem is being fixed or getting worse. It is onward and upward from here!

Fungus gnats OR they need to be transplanted. THAT is a sign that roots are being fucked with IMO. not PH
