Yellowing on leaf!!

Ok, your water is fine to my knowledge. If not, someone who monitors this closer correct me.

Given the strain is "Suite Leaf Critical Purple " I would say it is genetic, so your fine.

Evironmental factors such as cold temperature can also cause purpling in plants. But yours seems to be genetic one would assume with "purple" in the name!

Oh, runoff is way too high!

Oh, runoff is way too high!

Try to drop that down significantly. The most I ever watered with in the day was 1200 and that I found was too strong. I aim for 600-900 (including tap water) now depending what the plant can handle. (Each is different)

My other plants have it as well and they are from mephisto genetics. Suite leaf is the nutrients. So maybe it was too cold for them? So I test the water first, them test after mixing food up? Then again in the run off?? So after mixing the PPMs should be abt 600-900? And too correct them just add more water?? Then feed to them?

 

[HonestGR]

I think it is genetics tbh.

Other than that you got it.

Test water,
Test water nute solution
Test run off

Ok. Now what if the PPMs are in the soil as well before adding the solution? And how do I account for those?

 

[HonestGR]

There will be some, but you will want to run them through until it comes out relitivly the same as what you put in. (Best case for this is coco)

Start on the lower end since it is young. If it comes out at around 600-900 you should be golden. You will definitly need to drop the 2000 though

- water is a bit hard, but not that bad,.. cumulatively the mineral build up (CaCO3) can become an issue, driving pH up, loading up the ion content (ppm) in the soil,... maybe start using a blend of tap + low ppm water (RO, Di, self fill machine) to get it about 120ppm,...
The soil is part of the problem too... to this day, I can't account for OF's popularity, because IMO it's crappy, iffy-quality soil, it's the [HASHTAG]#1[/HASHTAG] problem soil we see in here hands down,.. usually off pH (acidic, badly often) and undercooked,... it's cheap for a reason, and that's not because likes you- .. it's a rich soil, so that in part is also why the high ppm run-off... but also, high ultra fine particulate content can skew results on ppm as well, making it seem more loaded than it is (read up on how TDS/EC meters work)...
This soil is not "water only" type, it's nute content isn't complete or balanced, so you need proper nutes ASAP.... symptoms look like K defc. to me, and the bat guano was likely high P? They make HPK, 0-4-3,...was that it?
As for pH, get yourself a soil pH probe, and not the cheapo skinny rod type, those suck... I have an Accurate 8 (Control Wizard) --> hsoil: (long probe unit here) that's been gold for years now.... Meantime, get me a whole plant pic, a flush might be in order to get that 2000ppm down!... not a casual thing to do, waterlogging the soil like that(can smother roots), but it's the lesser evil at times...

Thank you so much I did end up flushing them. The PPMs are in range now. Thank you so much. I just posted another thread If you wouldn't mind taking a look at it...appreciate your help.

Here are the plants now. All of them have burnt tips I believe...do they look damaged?
