hey guys i'm having a slight problem with a couple of my ladies, i think there suffering with the beginning stages of either a calcium, magnesium and maybe a slight nitrogen deficiency tho i'm not 100% shore!!
my temps are 70 F to 73 F lights on and 60 F to 63 F lights off
RM is kinder low at the moment at 38-43 lights on and 45-50 lights off
water temps in my res are 60 F to 64 F
my ph is 5.8 and my ppm is 500
with these factors in place i dont think that my girls should really be showing any signs of deficiencies tho i should mention that i think i over done it a bit with the amount of house and gardens root excelurator i used for the first time at 0.3 ml per liter of water coz a couple of days ago i noticed a couple of leaf tips on a few of plants were slightly burnt and i know my ph and ppm's are not to blame and although 0.3 ml of root excelurator per liter of water is the recommended dose i think that its a bit too strong for my girls at the moment who have only been in the (NFT) hydroponic trays for one week now and are still babies to a degree so im not shore if im right in thinking that my plants deficiencies might be the result of the slight root excelurater over dose which i have now corrected in my res by adding some more phED water to help dilute down the root excelurator a bit!!
i would apreciate any help comments and thoughts you may have as im not shore if im right in what i think the problem maybe and how it started, i've uploaded some pics for you to get a better idea of what im talking about!! thanks people
