Hello all...Hope to get some insight as to what the plants are missing. Been growing photos for a few years and used various nutrients (FF, MC) but had best results with either Jack’s Classic 20-20-20 or Jack’s Citrus 20-10-20. I just started growing only autos on November 1st so I’m still learning the plants needs.
My setup is a 2x4 tent, Cloudline T6 fan and Marshydro TSL 2000. Using Happy Frog in 4 gallon cloth pots.
Seeing the Jack’s had a canna specific formula I switched to that. The online feed schedules seemed to be all over the place and went to the company for help. The rep sent the feed schedule attached and confirmed the solution should be ph’d to the 5.8-6.2 despite being in soil. I understand the content of HF and that there’s a ph swing that occurs after feeding so I understand the logic of ph’ing lower but not necessarily comfortable since I’ve always ph’d to 6.4 and never had an issue.
The first few plants have grown nice heavy fat buds but the fan leaves seem to be showing signs of lacking something and they’re fading. I haven’t really experienced that in the past.
I’m also adding silica at 2 ml and just started adding CM+ at 3ml a gallon.
I have bumped the ph to 6.4 despite the recommendation just for my own psyche.
Sorry for the long post but wanted to give enough info and background. And help, insight or reassurance is appreciated.
The tall girl is in late flower (finish date is tomorrow) I will be running her 10-14 extra days. The short fat is getting chopped on Monday, she’s going to be 14 days over the finish date.
