Leaves are drying up

Yipes… new problem. Why are my leaves starting to turn crispy brown??? I water every 2 days… feed 2 x a week with flora nova grow 7-4-20. B the last food I gave the plants a week ago was fox farms big bloom. I realized the big bloom is for flowering time. I don’t understand…

@Sashasrs
It either nute burn or ph issue
Do you have a ph meter and a tds meter ???
What type of soil are you in
Do you ph after mixing nutes
Have you checked runnoff for ph and ppm ?

The soil is SUPER soil from a hydroponic store that they made me. I just learned how to ph test. I ph the water first, than add just water… or Orca & bud candy… or feed 2 x a week with Flora Nova grow 7-4-10. Now I just started with all of these chems a week ago. I did however 2 days ago lower the light. I have chem burned them awhile ago… and flushed them VERY well. I’m sorry I don’t know ppm…?

Ok I’m suspecting it’s a nute issue with out knowing the ppm of soil you may be feeding whennits not needed
Also ph after adding the nutes as well never ph water then add nutes that will throw off the ph always ph after adding nutes to water
You should get a tds meter so you can check your ppm of run off @Sashasrs I s the only way to know for sure what’s going on it your soil :+1:

@Sashasrs how old and how big are your plants?
You said you are using a super soil the grow shop put together for you which could already have quite a bit of nutrients in it already so the extra nutrients you are adding might be too much for your plants.
As @Countryboyjvd1971 stated the best course of action will probably getting a TDS meter to check the runoff to see how many nutrients are in your soil currently then go from there.

I think you really need to check your pH. It’s not hard to do. I would guess acidic soil (or water) but the diagnosis is going to be a lot easier with more information. Anybody got a support ticket?

Thank you! I’ll try just water. They are2 months and a week old. I have been feeding them, and I’ll stop! It seems to make the leaves dried out
