![]() | You need to find out the pH of your water/fert mix. Doesn't look overferted at all. Looks like high pH led to nute lockout. But then again maybe its burn from something other than N? N overdose will turn the leaves dark green -> brown and crispy -> death You can make do with a cheap pH pill tester kit from wal-mart or lowes/depot I actually had a N deficiency till I checked my tap water with a pH tester. Since then I add 1tsp of vinegar per gallon of water and now all my girls are growing fine

Then always make sure that after you add the nutrients to your water, the pH is 6.5; if not correct it by adding either a little "pH up" or a little "pH down" at a time until its the magic number | ||

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Yep,Soil should be 6.5PH.or as close as you can come .Ill bet you have a deficiency in magnesium unless you have been adding cal-mag. during your grow.Miricle grow contains no magnesium and is notorious for mg. deficiencies. ![]() | ||

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Yes vinager lowers PH and can be used with nutes.I would stop the spraying of neptunes seaweed.Used during veg. but not that great in flower.Your sativa dominant plant probably is not as big of a fert.user as you think.I would cut back on every fert. your using by at least half(leaf tip burn) .Also,when you pick up your pot -does it seem Heavy.I think your watering to much . Remember LESS is probably the best! PP. SS. FF-Cha-Ching is used during last 2 weeks of flower and it looks to me that you have a lot longer then that to harvest.FF-BB is perfect for every water low dose. | ||
