i am having an insaine time trying to figure out what is going wrong. My plants appear to be suffering from what looks like potasium deficiency... I have completely changed the rez twice now.
the stats of the grow are :
Using DWC method
Using Flora Nova Grow nutes
1000 ppm on the bigger plants and
500 ppm on the new clones.
Rez temps from 70-75.
Tent temps from 70-80
pH in the 5.5-5.8 range on both.
Each tote has a 700 air pump with 2 x 5" disc air stones each.
growth is somewhat slow but steady..
the problems are:
wrinkling leaves
the leaves yellowing all around the edges of each leaf, with dark green veins...
they are papery thin, not strong.
possible other factors since it just doesnt seem to be anything normal:
i have a large 2.5 gallon jug of the Flora Nova Grow nutes that i bought 6+ months ago. Is it possible for nutes to go bad from other factors? Age / heat / whatever?
i have been growing for a few years with Waterfarm single unit in a 4x4 tents. Everything has been fine and i have been growing big bushy plants that max out the root zone in the bucket, so i figured id try some bigger buckets to give the roots more room. I got these 27 gallon strong totes to use off a recommendation here.. It was also recommended to paint the yellow tops with a black coat (to keep the rez dark) and a white top coat to reflect the lights.
Is it possible the Rustoleum spray paint i used for the top (that does get wet) is leaching into the rez and some how making things toxic for the plants?
