Don't give up on organics just because you bought into the sub soil BS. It is obvious at this point that his recipe is trash. And he doesn't like to mention too often that he ALWAYS supplemented with additional nutes. Sorry he wasted your time. You're not the only one.

For future reference. It is easier for people to diagnose if you get them under different light. The colors will look totally different. And the more info the better, temps, humidity, water, feed schedule, anything. Sounds like they have you straightened around anyways. Happy growing. :peace:

I don't think your plants are too bad. I'm sure spots are minor cal deficiency. Easy fix. And those bottom most leaves just take the shock for different things like transplant. If it is not progressing up the plant, it is totaly normal. With good soil, I just start feeding lightly when the...

Yeah the purple LEDs, short for blurples.

I meant the guy that was hating on FFOF. :bigjoint:

FF grows good plants. Good air movement not only will help transpiration, it will help your pots dry a bit faster. FF soil is pretty airy. I doubt you are overwatering too much if you are using smartpots. More pics are always welcome.

I know for a fact you can grow healthy plants in FFOF with blurps. Maybe you were doing something wrong. :bigjoint:

I haven't used either before. I thought Recharge looked best for me with Great White a close second. Just comparing labels. I didn't even check the other one out, I wanted powder.

Oh nice. I have Langbeinite for K. :weed:

Was that post answered? Sounds like K deficiency to me. K is the most important macro in flower. Is your recipe similar to the one I posted earlier? That is why I didn't use it, no K. P toxicity would look similar but different context clues, pictures would be useful. It could be both with...

I used them mixed before, they are both really great soils. I mostly just used HF. I never added more microbes before I went organic. I'm sold on the microbes though, I just bought a bag of Recharge, I plan to recycle my soil from now on. :weed:

I was using Fax Farm Trio. I have recently switched to all organic living soil. :weed:

I really don't know enough about that to help you too much. That is about what my well ppm is, and it smells and tastes horrible, and stains everything, so I don't use it. I load buckets and jugs from a local mountain spring that has a PPM of 100-150. Then I added cal mag up to 200-250. :peace:

Another thing about the microbes, Ocean forest doesn't add them. If you are growing organic, you are really feeding the microbes, not the plants. I agree you should get some. Many of the organic materials are unavailable without being broken down by your microbes.

It is well known that cannabis requires high calcium. I just compare your pictures to the plant deficiency charts. It looks like calcium deficiency to me. I am certainly no expert. I dont think the plant is trying to trick us. :bigjoint: Good luck.

That doesn't sound like it started any issue. Your water pH is high, but that wouldn't lock out calcium. Your PPM is fairly normal clean water, I can't speculate on what minerals are in it. Your plants aren't that bad from what I see. Those spots are common, that is when I think most people...

I feel like I said alot. In summary, If you have a cal deficiency: If you have sufficient calcium in your soil, lowering the humidity and supplying sufficient airflow will help take up the calcium. If you have good air flow and humidity, then you would need to add more water soluble calcium.

Inoculation is putting beneficial mychorizae and microbes into your soil. Very important for organic growing. You would buy the powder and add it too your soil. There are many sources. Too much calcium could lock out other nutrients. It would not look the same. Cannabis can hog alot of calcium...

Just to specify. Your RH is fine now. Def get it below 60% by flower. Closer to 40% would be ideal by end of flower. I'm not trying to go on a tangent, lowering the humidity would help uptake nutes. I would flush cal-mag at least 2-3 weeks. Half way through flower your plants will need less cal...

Cannabis def needs lots of Cal-mag. Keep humidity below 60%, fans moving those leaves. I don't know what I'd recommend, maybe half strength, full strength if you have deficiency. Depends how much is in your amendments, I don't use liquid Cal-mag anymore, it is in my other amendments. It is...
