First off, I had no plans on growing and all of a sudden found myself with 4 plants 2 weeks ago.
So here I am.
Plants are about 5-6 weeks old I’m told.
Bought a 4x4 tent from VIVOSUN, transplanted into 5 gal the first week with happy frog soil. I watered with tap water that sat out for 24 hrs and added nutrients per HWG website, adjusted the ph to 6.2.
This week I took 1 cup of soil from the plant and 1 cup of water and the slurry was 5.9ph. I notice some of the leafs are a bit yellow and some brown spots. It was suggested that the ph is low and to let it go. I looked up the water quality report for my area and it says we have Chloramine in our water. I just ordered a filter….
The plants are ready to be watered tomorrow morning and not sure what to do. Any advise what my next step is?
Possible fungus or just some splotchy leaves. Just transplanted. New soil/nutes. Watch ph and givem a week. If spreading and nutes/ph on schedule give them a foliar spray with an organic fungicide. I use a 3way fungi/insect/miticide. A sample from Growers Ally is 10 bux. Free ship. Makes 1 gallon. Once every 1 or 2 weeks i soakem at LIGHTS OUT.
Happy frog has enough nutes in it to not need anything but water for a couple months at least. I mixed mine with compost I built and didn’t add any additional nutes the entire grow and half of the next grow. Just waited for the plants to tell me they needed it.
Thats a bit diff though starting in the interior of the leaf. I lean towards Manganese excess. Somebody else posted this chart and it’s the best one I’ve seen by far. Hot links with more details at every one.
HWG is that YouTube channel HowWeedGrow, it has a nutrient schedule for beginners using the same soil. I agree, looking at the images it looks like a mag deficiency to me.
I’ll admit I didn’t watch the vid, but I know for a fact Happy Frog is fairly rich. Some folks get some nute burn when they add nutes with happy frog.
As far as manganese excess, that’s the closet I could find on the reference link I posted. I’m far from an expert and maybe one of these gurus can chime in.
Edit:
I went to the site, you have to be careful, one vid talks about soil and another about nutes… but for different applications. Re-watch some of your vids you were using and see if they are talking about different medias.
There is your problem. I’m reading this correctly you said.
Transplanted into Happy frog soil in 24 hours you gave it nutrients.
You shouldn’t give them nutrients for at least one month
If your statement above is correct discontinue nutrients use water only. Those plants are old enough to water to run off. When you run off your ppms will tell you if it’s time to feed them when you get down to 900 PPM runoff then start nutrients until then water only
