Gowing from veg to flowering

What line of nutrients are you using?

I’m using Humboldt nutrients the two step two stage Master a master B and the ginormous Bloom nutrient I also use RO water and off days with cal-mag and the RO going in the nutrients and everything I need I get the pH up to 6.4 to 6.6 and coming out it is 6.9 to 7.0 on the ppm’s going in at 330 coming out I’ve been having a problem they’ve been reading really low but up till now except that one plant they’re all doing well so I moved the one with the yellow leaves to the other side of the tent away from the direct sunlight to see if that will help

Going in at 330 coming out at what? Humboldt nutrients website isn’t great, which one of those bottles should provide the iron? Also, what is the growing medium here again?

The pH going in is 6. 4 to 6. 6 on my TDS meter it says 330 when the pH comes out it runs at 6. 9 to 7. 1 for several weeks the TDS PPM whatever you want to call it has been coming out only like 8285 I’ve asked questions before they said it could just be soil my soil pH is at 7. 0 and all my other plants are doing good for my first grow won’t yield much but I’ve learned a 12 what to do and what not to do my next girl will obviously be better my pH and PPM have always been pretty good it’s just the last little while the ppm’s are wacky when they drain out and I take the reading

Growing medium is Fox farm Happy frog looking at the ingredients on the bottles I do not see iron amongst any of it on all three different bottles I guess I’ve never thought to look done with me but so what do you suggest that I can get local in a store that could help it pretty quick

I’m guessing one of the bottles on their schedule has some, but their website kinda sucks. You can check other bottles in person if you want. Otherwise a mixture of soluble trace elements would probably work too.

Yeah I might try some other nutrients this next grow I wasn’t quite sure what to get I’ll look around and just threw a dart got what I got well I guess I’ve learned a lot and still learning and hopefully someday I’ll get this figured out thanks for all your help bud

@dbrn32 hey Bud what I did was moved the plant to the opposite side of the room I found this bag of nutrients we use for some other plants here is the contents tell me if you think that is too much I’m also feeding with RO water

That would probably work. How far out from harvest are you roughly?

They started flowering on the 25th of last month so roughly 3 weeks left. I took some of that nutrients and gound in up mixed in the soil around the outside of the pots & watered it in

Ok. I would caution feeding heavy with it for long due to slow nitrogen.

Well I’m going to feed the girls with nutrients today and I’m going to crush some more of that up and crush the nitrogen balls that are in this nutrient Ben mix it in with the top soil and water it down through I’ve got another plant starting the same thing I’m not sure what’s going on cuz like I said on paper it still gives me about another three weeks so I’m hoping they don’t die on me but I guess if they do being my first girl I’ve learned something from you more iron more iron more iron thanks again

@dbrn32 when I got home from work today I looked at the leaves and some of them that were yellow are starting to turn brown I’ve clip them leaves off bugs look fine but I will send you a couple pics sorry to bother you so much sir just sit since I started back in February you always been helpful and I greatly appreciate that but here’s a couple pics and again I apologize for bugging you

these are just a couple pics from the buds they were off of on two different plants

Did you grab any runoff data from your last feeding?

The last few runoffs they were 64265 going in pH coming out or 69271 my ppm’s going in was 3:30 coming out the last several times have been in the 60s and 80s I mean nothing there and I don’t understand it

What scale are you reading in? I don’t believe I’ve ever seen a number that high

That meant to say6.4 to 6.6 going in and 6.9 to 7.1 out ppm in 330 coming out over the last several feedings they’ve been coming out in the 80s maybe 82 86 strange numbers don’t understand it

You’re ph is trending a little high, and your runoff ppm a little low. When do you feel like you will be due for water?
