New Grower quest for sticky gold! noobie grow with mi5. day 34

[higher self]

Hey guys. So i have decided to log a journal in hopes for help and advice to make it to harvest: ) my goal is to just harvest some decent home grown to last awhile. 2 ounces would make me really happy but I'll take what the ladies give in the end. everything is loaded from a really crappy phone so hang with me. Ive had a couple bs grows that never saw the end. I'm callin this one the real one haha.

I have three mi5 autos

Soil is fox farm happy frog 1 in a 3gallon 2 in a 2gallon

Nutes- roots organic grow & bloom,sunleaves indo bat gauno,kelp meal,ewc,earth juice element cal mag, epsom salt, dolomite lime,crushed egg shells,molasses and a cal phos solution i made from one of the threads here but have no idea how to use yet haha.

lights- 150w hps & 135w blackstar

Grow space- gl60

im going into 5&6 with the ladies. Ive been feeding with roots organic bloom,epsom and Molasses. I kinda just started ph'ing the water due to what looks to be a lock at the moment.

Last feeding went in 6.0 runoff was a flippin 7.5-8.0 uh oh?

Enough talkin! Here' babes

So im trying to figure out whats the best thing for the ladies right now. I topdress last night with peat moss hoping to lower the soil ph in the next week or so. Also i was going to topdress powdered egg shell for calcium. Anyone know if i can feed the cal phos solution to the soil instead of sreying on the leaves?

Hey and Welcome!!
Ya the pH is a bit high for sure. I would lower your water/feed pH by a little to get started. Some folks dress with a bit of lime. I have not run into this issue yet still on my first grow and only needed minor correction. I am sure someone who know better will be along. It looks to my inexperience eye to be the start of a cal/mag issue. I used the earth juice for a bit but was having an issue with too much N. The cal phos I believe is when you get ready to transition to flowering.
That's the sum of my experience and knowledge, wish I had better more conclusive answers for ya!
Peace and happy growing!
Have a hit of :karma Cloud: to tide you over until the real help arrives

Hey Higher self. I don't have a clue, but I asked some more experienced growers to come and check your thread out.
It may be a good idea to post these pics over here: Hospital / Infirmary for Sick Plants

Sending you mega growing Karma.

If your ph is that high/out of whack, then I` would flush her(3 x pot volume min!), with ph`d water, maybe add ferts(1/4 strength towards end of flush), flush until ph of run off is back to 6.5ish...Then let her/them dry out, for a while!"My 2 cents" ...All the best mate

 

[higher self]

Ugh....ok i was hoping i wouldn't Have to flush. If its for the best then i will. My next feeding is tomorrow so i flush then or right away?

 

[StickMan]

Right away, don't feed again until you flush.

 

[RebelRoy]

what Krug said. def. you need to get that ph straight for your ladie to be able to take in any neuts at all. so i would start flushing right away bud "My 2 cents"

 

[krug]

I`d flush straight away(personally), I`d want get that ph down asap. Sooner you sort that out, the quicker she`ll start recovering! :tiphat:
