Looks like your in pots and judging by the chaos it’s probably ohbrelated. Stop nutes and get runoff in shape to the proper ph value. If you did that and I didn’t read it I request a feature to scroll up while I edit mode but I digress

5

It’s look like calcium deficiency, here’s a picture of what it look like and a link that explain how to fix it , generaly, it’s a pH issue, low pH to be more specific

Hope that’s helping you @EasyE…

~Al :v: :innocent:

Let’s the other confirm… to be sure, I may be wrong…

6

I’m whit @Niala on that… Seems like calcium deficiency… I personally use Epsom Salt (small doses) on every feed/watering.
I don’t see any ph value in your suport ticket… For soil should be around 6.5-6.8 so keep one eye on that.thenug-WItBVPhsFaNutrient_Chart2

Immwoth @Niala on it’s a ph issue whatbis runoff ph at or what are you watering at also soil type
Ph is Moses common cause of nutrients lock outs
@EasyE
So a little more info is needed

8

@EasyE… You say you ran 20 gallons of hose water… What’s that water? City, well ?and you need to know what that ph is… I understood What you wrote as 20 gallons of water then finished with 5 gallons of ph’d water at 6.5… Do you know what ph of other water is that your flushing with… Thats gonna help all the folks here

9

I do not know the ph of the water I used to flush with the 20 gallons. I have one of the cheap yellow ph testers and its been on the frits for a bit. When I calibrate the ph in 7.0 solution it’s not reading 7.0 but reading like 7.4 - so nowadays I calibrate my filtered water I’ve been using to 6.9 which in turn would be 6.5.

10

With @Countryboyjvd1971 questionning and After further research, it’s most probably your soil that’s causing your problem… I am pretty sure now :innocent:

“Just Natural” organic soil contain pine bark mulch and Canadian sphagnum peat moss . Pine bark mulch have a pH between 3.5 and 4.5 depend on the kind of pine that it has been extract And the Canadian sphagnum pH is 4.5… So, dolomite lime is a must, imo. It will raise your pH and stabilize the pH and with the combination of @M4ur trick (Epsom salt) and patience (dolomite lime work slowly) and or/and some calcium-magnesium formula, calcium acetate, or calcium magnesium acetate to a faster fix .

Hoping that’s gone a help you, @EasyE

11

I need to check the runoff also but I have not. I could be using too much ph down or low ph’d water and if that’s the case it would cause a lockout correct?

12

And all this started on the lower fan leaves and has now got to my top cola leaves. Need something if anything that will work quickly. I picked up some epsom salt - is the dolomite lime fast acting? Is there a certain kind of calcium-magnesium formula or acetate?

13

Dolomite lime, like I mentioned is slow action, however, will raise and stabilized your pH, :relaxed:

General Hydroponic Cal-mag is a good fast action one :relaxed:, @EasyE…

@EasyE check the ph of the hose water. I just started my seeds today and when i phed the sink water, it came out close to 8
