New Grower TomFoolery plants a seed...

Well, I just mean formed flowers already...past the half way point for sure....but like I said you may be able to safely foliar feed CaMg anyway and that would bypass the pH lock out in the soil...

 

[Trapper]

May need to flush also.....have you done a midway flush?

 

[TomFoolery]

Yeah, I did a clean water flush adjusted to 7.0 a week ago when I first noticed the blanching. Then pushed water/cal-mag, no nutes thru them for a few days 'cause I believe I was pushing a Nitrogen toxicity on a couple.
thought I was past the worst, but I've been known to be wrong before.
thanks for looking out!

Cool, well that tells you it isn't salt or nute build up...so that's off the list...

Keep in mind that as per Waira's advice...Hydrated lime is a completely different product from Garden or Dolomite lime...as he said, a "right now" intensity compared to garden lime's or dolomite lime's slow/gentle increase in pH.
It sounds like he's got you on a solid game plan for correcting the lock out I may not have great/sagely advice but at least I know where to point you to for it
