Ph is 6.1 currently, always in the 6.0 to 6.2 range

Last night the leaves were all droopy, this morning they are praying up and some new growth at the bud sites looks clean
Dwc should aim for 5.8 ph. but unless you’ve been further outside that range it shouldn’t be effecting you like that at 6.

I will keep it at 5.8 for the duration, buts she has been at 6 her whole life. The painted nails and now this has all been in the last 4 days and she has been problem free the entire grow.

Nute mix?
Cal mag, etc? Could be hungry
And yeah they’re hardy and will take the range. I’ve been advised to let it swing through the 5.5-6.5 but get wary of it going over 6 because that’s any problem I’ve had in the past.

1g of 4-0-0 cal mag, 5.5g of 5-10-14 bloom, 2.5g of 1-15-30 boost, 10ml silica, 10ml cleankelp per gallon. Oh yeah, they are Lotus Nutes

Looks like some excess nitrogen going on, I would reduce that 1100 PPMs to 800-850 your PH is good and I let mine drift from 5.8-6.2

Holy crap that’s a lot of macro additives. I’ve found a simple approach with a balanced NPK works best. I would recommend the calmag, silica and the 5-10-14

Always crazy to me how much kelp I put in and the plant doesn’t seem to mind.
Also @OGIncognito knows his stuff to trust that over most imo.

Overall looks great Growmie, I would still recommend laying off the PK boosters, that boost works good from the transition to around week 3 of flower

Ok, i will eliminate the boost all together, i half wondered if it wouldnt be too much being an autoflower, i should have asked yall first!

Lotus nutrients are expensive and if I could recommend a 1 part, inexpensive and great nutrient brand it would be Mega Crop, I’ve been a Jacks users for years and started using the MC 1 part early this year and super impressed with the results. I’ve harvested 10 plants using it and some of the largest plants and buds I’ve had

Its Lab Day anyway so I will mix a whole new reservoir. Should I rinse the roots or anything?
