Diagnose?

Yes I'm using everything in the lineup. Although I'm only going at 1/4th strength. They have only gotten 1 feed with it. Next feed I'm going to up to 1/2 strength.

Here's a couple more questions that the people in the know will need to know

What PH is your tap water?
Are you checking the PH before adding to the plant? (if so, how are you checking, strips? or meter? what kind of meter? Probe?)

 

[Holdemgodmode]

There were a few times where I did not check the ph and a few times where I used the liquid to ph test and got it around 6-7. I bought a ph pen but it's a piece of shit and wont calibrate. Once I add nutes to the water you can no longer use the liquid test kit because it turns the water black so you cant see the color. I need to get a different PH pen.

It's most common for "lockout" to occur when the soil PH is out of range that the plant can take up.
I'd feel pretty confident in saying your problems are mostly caused by PH.

Adding more elements wont fix the problem, as the plant still won't take them up if the soil is out of range. (6.2-6.5 for soil i think)

You could do with one of these (they're one of the cheaper reliable meters)

The solution is to adjust your soil PH ... but without a reliable meter - that's gonna be a huge loada guess work.
So i'll leave it to the others to help from here

OF... betting... do a slurry test and see where the soil ph is... betting it's the OF being to hot, and the soils ph being out of range...

Ocean Forest for photos... if you must...

Happy Frog is more gentle... still seem to have ph issues with ... their quality control has slipped.

..... it looks like P defc. to me too,... given the low feeding with mild organic nutes, this makes sense,... pH is always in play, and organic or not, in-pot pH needs to be monitored, it's not adjusting the feed solution's pH that's not recommended,... best tool for this is the Accurate 8 soil pH probe--> hsoil: long probe in this icon is the A8,... OF soil is not to be trusted, a very common problem soil in here,.. I stopped using it a few years ago after getting bags in the low 5's pH! -instant FUBAR.... their quality control is a joke IMO,... Point is, to make sure this isn't caused by a pH lockout, and is just a simple lack-of,... but treating if different! Add more feeds to off pH soil will make matter worse,....
Get me a whole plant pic in normal light, there's more I need to see,....

Something I've found, some soils will ph correctly out of the bag... but if it has a lot of bark and petemoss its ph may drift down... I do a soil test every other week just to stay on top of it.


My ph up is ionized limestone, so it helps to keep soil ph where its needs to be.

I just ordered a soil ph/moisture/light meter. Here are the pics you requested
