hey broker if i were you i would get 2 2 litre coke bottles poke a hole with a nail in lid then add 1 cup of sugar to both and 1 paket or table spoon of yiest into bottle then add 1 litre of luke warm water shake the hell out of them and place them around your plants this produces C02 and will help your plants rebound back
Drfever, that is new to me and I have tried to research as much as possible. Sounds like a good idea, cheap and cheerful. just a small pinhole? Sugar and yeast I will get from store tomorrow and do first thing. How long does it last before it runs out? Do I only do it once or continuous? Sounds like a great if that mixture works

It does work but do a trial run first , the amount of people that have done this an added to much yeast or to much sugar and it froths up and overflows or the hole is to small and bottle pressure builds up, make 1 up overnight but leave it in the sink , remember how much of each you used. warm water works better.Drfever, that is new to me and I have tried to research as much as possible.

Is that short for Wilkinsons .... I have one nearby but I would ideally like to use the litre bottles purely because the room i have either side of the drain off tanks is very limited. The tent is only small I will experiment with one tomorrow I don't have work for another week so nothing else to do really.1 heaped teaspoon yeast to 1 plastic up sugar... Warm water. I'll pierce the old with something thin as I'm guessing a small knife hole will be too much air?

Here's more science based evidence once again.
I'd also suggest buying a reputable book to help you in the future, BrokerJ.

Apologies my bad , fair comment.
Thanks flo I will keep wishing for the best and hopefully this will solve my issue... I did have a question for you though... On your chart it clearly shows that 5.8 would be best, but does that include coco? I believe when we spoke yesterday you also told me that you use canna a and b? Or was that somebody else's schedule you sent. I was wondering as a coco grower when bestto start the a and b after a re plant with new medium? Thanks

[h=2]Dry soil, water-logged soil, overly bright light, too little light, cold, or sudden changes in the environment.[/h]
| Leaves occasionally turn yellow and drop off indoor plants. Do not be concerned if only a few leaves are affected. But if more than a few leaves start to turn light green or yellow, you may have a problem. Physical injury to a leaf, while the leaf was forming or after maturity, may cause it to turn yellow and fall off. Other causes of leaf yellowing and leaf dropping are: Dry soil, water-logged soil, overly bright light, too little light, cold, or sudden changes in the environment. As you can see, there are many causes. Any of these factors can stress the plant. The most common response a plant has to stress is to drop some of its leaves. Let's look at some of these causes. Light is important in order for the plant to maintain healthy green leaves. Light influences the plant's ability to make food and to keep its leaves in good condition. When new leaves appear, old leaves often turn yellow and fall off. This is not unusual because this is how the plant balances available light and the appearance of new leaves. The oldest leaves decline first when there is inadequate food to support the entire plant. This is a normal process. A damaged root system can also causes a plant's leaves to turn yellow. Root injury may occur due to excessive use of fertilizers, high populations of insects feeding on the root system, lack of water or too much water. Too much water can accumulate if there are no drainage holes in the pot, or if the pot is allowed to stand in a saucer holding the drainage from the last watering. Standing in water can cause the plant's roots to die and the plant itself to yellow and die. If many leaves of a plant suddenly turn yellow within a day or two, the plant may have been exposed to cold temperatures or to toxic gasses, i.e. gas from a kitchen stove is toxic to some plants. Plants near a window often lose leaves after a sharp cold spell. Plants moved from a store into a home, or even from one room to another, often lose many leaves due to sudden temperature changes. In these cases, a plant will usually recover if the change is not too extreme. There are no simple answers to the question of why leaves often turn yellow. One must examine the plant's history, environment, watering and soil conditions, in the hope of identifying the primary source of the problem. |
