So I'm on day 7 of flower and have had some foil age problems recently. I have had some rust spots, yellowing with some lime green splotchiness, and withering of lower fan leaves. I also in the past day or 2 have noticed some clawing of my top new growth which is also dark green. I have done some research and I think I have a combination of problems caused by the MG moisture control soil I'm using. I haven't tried to flush due to my worry that the nutrient pellets would release even more nutes. I don't have any signs of nute burn but I can tell that my roots have reached the bottom of my pot (not root bound quite yet I don't think). My verdict is that the soil is too acidic due to the high level of nutrients, and has caused lockout of some nutrients while also causing a toxicity of nitrogen and salt buildup. I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions. I'm considering a transplant into an organic soil and a possible flush after the transplant. If the transplant is a bad idea should I just flush? With either I would adjust pH. I do not have any way of measuring pH as of now I'm just guessing that it is acidic due to the signs the plant has shown and b/c of the nutrients in the soil.
I should also add that temps and bugs are not an issue and I have been using distilled water. Used an extremely light dose of MG AP plant food about a week ago but have only used dist. Water and unsulphured molasses (1tbsp/gal) since. Also would the use of hydrogen peroxide help roots to breathe or clean out the soil at all?
Any soil suggestions for transplant are welcome as I have not purchased anything yet.
Peace and smoke
