Greetings Fellow Growers,

Today I started noticing my leaves turning yellow and brownish and dying. My main hypothesis at the moment is : Due the fact I've ONLY have watered my plants each Monday and Thursday and NEVER UNTIL IT DRIPS. The medium got too dried and the leaves started NUTE burning because of the Roots, By the roots hitting the unwatered soil underneath the pot, it caused some damage. so from now on, I'm starting to water the pot until the water start dripping. ( I USUALLY DO THIS BUT HAVEN'T DONE IT ON THIS GROW). Like i said, That's only my hypothesis. I haven't checked PH levels because I'm using DOLOMITE LINE with MAG and is only the 5th week of veg from seed. so, the dolomite still should be keeping PH levels adjusted. Does anyone have any recommendation and a way to fix this problem?

When roots hit a dry area they just die. What is more likely is that the salts left behind in the soil from dried water/nutes burned your plants. Thats why when you water you should make sure a good bit runs off...

So when i let my soil get mostly dry befor i water again all my roots are dying?
Pretty much ya....

Young plants will die fast if their roots dry out. Older plants are a little more resilient. They will show signs that their roots are in trouble....they wilt. Its a good idea to water them before that point.

It is a balance. In veg you want to let your pots go as dry as they can because the plant will grow its roots fast looking for moisture and food, but not too dry that they start wilting and dying.

In bloom...you never want to let your plants get so thirsty that they wilt because it stalls bud growth.

Ive been growing for 6 years now and i still struggle with watering them right...specially ythe young uns...

Soil is a tad on the hot side especially if it was a fresh batch of ffof, while i highly doubt you have pH issues with 5 spoons of lime, under-watering beefed up ocean forest will burrrrnnnnn
