Greetings Fellow Growers,

Today I started noticing my leaves turning yellow and brownish and dying. My main hypothesis at the moment is : Due the fact I've ONLY have watered my plants each Monday and Thursday and NEVER UNTIL IT DRIPS. The medium got too dried and the leaves started NUTE burning because of the Roots, By the roots hitting the unwatered soil underneath the pot, it caused some damage. so from now on, I'm starting to water the pot until the water start dripping. ( I USUALLY DO THIS BUT HAVEN'T DONE IT ON THIS GROW). Like i said, That's only my hypothesis. I haven't checked PH levels because I'm using DOLOMITE LINE with MAG and is only the 5th week of veg from seed. so, the dolomite still should be keeping PH levels adjusted. Does anyone have any recommendation and a way to fix this problem?

that is alot of LIME. usually only need that much for a large batch of soil. that is also alot of ammendments.

keep it simpler! wit that much lime your runoff must be at least 7.

good batch of clean distilled/spring/ro water at 5.5 for next few waterings. measure your runoff. looking pretty dark green too. definitely mixed too hot.

kelp, alfalfa worm castings shouldnt burn anything, but like Paris Hilton says "thats hot!"

I would like to add a small bit of advice. I noticed there is a plug on the floor, right on top of a stain from old run-off. I would advise against having any cords/plugs laying on the floor where water might be. Any electronic devices should be propped up at least an inch off the floor also.

Happy growing. :leaf:
