Ok i understand, im using distilled water and I wasnt sure if i should go with the 8/16 mix because it said the plant was prone to nutrient burn. I guess ill try that when she starts flowering and if signs of nutrient burn show ill drop the ratio down to 7/14 or even 6/12. Thanks again! Peace
Thought i would post here for the future, in case you ever revisit this thread after running into problems. Below are 2 images, What do you think? Yeah Potassium (K) deficiency is what I am thinking. I also flushed for a few days thinking maybe K was locked out due to high salinity and that did no good.
I was using the Lucus Formula and at full strength my plants were getting burnt in veg. I dropped the ratio down in half (Oh Veg is in aeroponics set-up) and I am using clones from a couple very healthy moms of Dutch Passion " The Ultimate"
Of course my clones are started off 1/4 strength and I have tried slowly increasing my ratio to the recommended 5/10 for veg.
When my plants are at about 2' they can handle this dose but start showing this deficiency. When I throw them into flower, I have tried to increase the ratio to the recommended 8/16 as the deficiency starts getting worse in no time.
I have tried everything to solve this issue, however running 25 Buckets in RDWC, it is getting costly with time and product. Looking at the "Green grow" in the GH 3 part, you can see it has 6% K which is more than the other 2 combined. I am thinking this may be strain related, I don't know. Today though I am going to dump 300 gal of nutes and try the GH 3 part formula.
These plants can only handle about 800ppm in till I start seeing some burn so will be adjusting the 3 part accordingly.
Awhile back was using this with success with another strain, however I was always fighting with the PH. Cool thing about the Lucus was it seemed to always be at 5.8 to 6.0 when mixed.
So I guess just a heads up on changing the Lucus formula ratio too much as it has not worked well for me.
