Small dark spots on leaves

[oldcoot]

Wow that sounds like a lot of ppm's for city water but ive never been on city water.
Your water is 8. Ha, my well water is 5.5 and ppm of around 130. My water sucks but i deal with it.
It also varies alot thru out the year, constant checking and adjusting daily because it also changes if i let sit out for 24 hrs.
Good luck. Im sure it will workout.
I know i was freaking out so close to harvest.
Panic mode was setting in especially when u can only grow 1 or 2 at a time.

I'm getting really getting low on the nutes and I'm going to try something different. What would you guys recommend? I was thinking about AN sensi ph perfect but it seems more suited for hydro so I'm not sure. Looking for something a little more gentle than the ff stuff. Maybe something organic. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated

I think this problem is getting better my leaves are getting color back. I got the earth juice micro blast and dyna grow pro tect. Next grow in am using all earth juice nutrients and going to try my tap water again. Also is the earth juice meta-k the same as the dyna grow pro tect just not as strong? Thanks for your help @Waira and others that shared there knowledge I think I'm still going to get a good harvest.

@oldcoot - good to hear,...Cheers buddy, you're quite welcome!


Tom-- oof! That's some rocky shit there,... You can blend the waters though, to get about 130ppm, then add the Ca-Mg (always before other nutes) which will add some buffering capacity to the water,.. when you pH adjust it, it'll hold far better,...
I have no feedback on their nute line, so can't opine there,... it's mild for sure though,... otherwise, check out the nute vendors here,... what you want to spend is a factor too of course,... General organics GO Box is pretty popular, good nutes, but you need to be aware what the differences organic bring and how to work with them,, the soil microbes are more important than ever in organics, as they convert and cycle them into forms the plant can absorb,.. inoculants, EWC poop teas, enzymes, all help a lot! And you still need to monitor in-pot pH, organics don't mean pH isn't an issue anymore,... you could also try Mephisto/GBD soil amendment system, which is "water only",... some still need a little organic feeds now and again, but lots of fine results documented here,... Biotabs is great too, but might be a bit spendy being overseas,...
