Hello everyone, i am currently growing 50x 2gallon in a 4x8 grow tent, Melon gum strain. x4 Mars hydro TSL 2000
I use tap water which is at 480PPM ( i know its very hard water but with 50plants i dont have much other choice right now than to use tap water) i let it air out for 48hrs+.
They are in Promix HP (peat moss soil) , Feeding the General hydroponic flora trio i will include the schedule i use in the photos.
For the first 2 week i used tap water480ppm and the Flora trio schedule without cal/mag. only phed water between 2 feedings.
Note that since they are in a grow tent and i dont have a flood table when i feed there is no runoff. !
Ph is always 5.7-6.2
Humidity at 40% (for the first 2 weeks at nights the humidity was sometime 60-70% i got my humidifier later than i expected)
I got them on may 1st they were clones,they were doing wonderful until about the 14th may when i started to notice some brown spots i googled and thought it was a cal/mag deficiency so i bought General hydroponics Calimagic on the 14 i fed em the flora trio+cal mag.
Few days later i noticed the brown spots were starting to appear on more and more plants even so i fed cal mag... I then started to think it might be a salt built up which create a nutrient lockout so my calmag cannot be ate up.
So i went and flushed ALL of them the first runoffs were at about 1500-1800ppm 6.0PH... I am flushing with 500pm tap water so the lowest i could get them to was 700-800ppm. + i did a light defoliation and removed all brown infected leafs
((i know flushing with 500pm water isnt optimal but with 50plants i do not have a RO system so i must use the tap water...!!!))
I then fed my normal flora trio mix +cal mag at 6ph.
5 days later the browning is still spreading....
I am now wondering since the first 2 weeks at night my humidity was super high 60-70% and air circulation wasnt very good maybe the problem is actually Leaf Rust fungus and not cal/mag defficiency neither a lockout?
They are now on 20days of veg
I just fed them the flora trio + cal mag at 5.8ph the runoff was at 6-6.1ph, 1000ppm
I Grew before with the same place hard water and i didnt got this problem ...
Thank you for your time... I need more opinions before i go ahead and spray fungicide to get rid of Rust leaf fungus...!
