Thank you. New leaves are lovely and green without any signs of burn. Ph is about 6.5
So 298 is your PPM? Thatâs pretty low for such big plants.
Do you think that could be the reason? Deficiency rater than ambience?
I think youâve got a potassium deficiency. If your Ph is good then youâre not feeding enough. What are you feeding them, and when was the last time you fed?

I fed them today. In fact as directions on the bottle with every watering but only about 250ml a day. Maybe thats not enough⌠But again its only the botom3 leaves and they are like that for a good while now when other leaves are fine
Ok, this stuff is meant for cannabis, so it should work well. Are you feeding every watering as recommended?
It could be that youâve been underwatering and underfeeding, especially since youâve not been going to runoff. From now on, feed every time you water and do it till you get 10% runoff, and test it for Ph and PPM. Letâs see if that fixes your problem. Remember that you will only water now when the soil is dry about an inch down.

Perfect will do from now on. How often should i do runoff? And also 10% of what? I was only watering about 250ml a day or every second day. I didnât test ph for a while as Iâm waiting for testers (delivery is late). Last time (around 2 weeks ago) it was 6.5. Should i add some calcium and mag?
You water to runoff every time you water or feed, and you want to get back 10% of what you put in. Youâre not watering enough. There are roots at the bottom of the pots that arenât getting water or nutes. Youâre going to see a lot of growth once you start doing this.
Ok, so youâre not really sure what your Ph is? You really need to know this because it changes everything, but for now you donât need to add Cal Mag.

Ok i will make sure i check it everytime now. Feel silly for not knowing that 
thank you foe all your help @raustin @Familyman @Sixpackdad
Donât feel silly. Everything is going to work out. What kind of soil are you using?
@raustin has you on the path. Your plants look pretty good, but at 300PPM the kids are probably getting hungry. Once you are watering at a stable pH of 6.5 (for soil), watering to runoff, and then only watering only when the top inch of soil is dry, you will be golden.

@Sixpackdad Its plain soil without any nutes in at all so probably thats it⌠I will fix them⌠Thank you guys for all your advices. You are great of a help xxx⌠Going to bed now as its after midnight here⌠I will update whe bbs are fed and ph tested
Dont fee silly. Iâd know this when I started too.

Iâm not a soil grower but I think you want it to be close to what went in. Like if you fed 100ppm youâd want 85ppm coming out. If itâs much lower you want to feed higher. If it comes out higher then youâre feeding to strong. If it comes out way higher youâll want to tag people and see if they think it needs flushed. Iâm sure others can add more details to that. @raustin can probably give a better explanation and correct me if Iâm wrong.

Nope, youâre absolutely right. Your PPM should never be higher coming out, that usually means a nute lockout due to improper Ph.

So inputing 660ppm should be higher than the 300 i had? And should i runoff every time i water?? But if your ppm is very similar in your runoff to the sump one doesnt it mean that the and is not eating tbe nutes? Excuse my lack of knowledge
Wait, letâs back up. Youâre saying you put in 660 and got out 300? Thatâs good, it means sheâs eating. I think youâre making this more complicated than it really is.
Itâs very simple, you put in say, 1000 PPM and you check the runoff PPM which is say, 1000. This is fine for now because for the next few days the plant will eat that 1000 PPM. Now, the next time you water and you check your runoff it should be lower, say 500 PPM because the plant has eaten the nutes you put in a few days ago, the 1000 PPM. You do this routine every time you water or feed so that you can keep track of how much your plant eats.

Ok thank you @raustin. Didnât want to make it sound complicated 
at the begining of that post i didnât even know what is runoff haha

Sounds like your gonna be fine. What is your pH.
Still waiting for the proper ph tester but got few of those disposable ones and last time ive checked (around 2 weeks ago) it was around 6.5. If i do not get package tomorrow i will get one in store @Familyman⌠Hows your girls doing?
