I dont know what im doing wrong

[Andrew Hutchison]

Right I got a bluematic just past 5 weeks old in soil and under a 300w cfl about 7 inches away from the plant, temp is between 24-27 c, and I feed her molasses 1/2 tbls per litre and Dutch pro. 5 ml per litre every other water and ive noticed the tips browning or going white and some of the other leaves going a different colour. Anyone help me out please?

What size pot? What is your mix made of?What are the recommended dosage from dutch pro?Is dutch pro organic?Your giving too much molasses.One tbls per gallon is enough and maybe give only once or twice every month.

Its 8 litres about 1 1/2 galon pot, soil mix is John innes no:2 with 30% coir substrate, Dutch pro recommended dose is 1ml per litre and ill cut down on the molasses.

I would cut back your dosage and follow there dosages,more is not always better I would also raise the light up to at least 12 to 14 inches to maybe get a little more verticle growth.

Right, ive raised the light to 13 inch, and what do I do about too much feed? Just plain water next time? Thanks for the advice do far by the way.

Yes,just use plain water unless the nutes are chemical than you need to ph the intake water.You should only have to feed two or three times a month.

Sorry for being such a noob, but whats the best ph for soil growing?

6.5 PH is best or near that number.
