Im only on my 4th grow and have only used home made soil and have never measured PH or light. Im not saying you dont need to Im saying I like not having to bother with it myself. I feed with every watering.

You can feed every watering as long as your nutes are in order if they to strong they gonna get toxic really quick if too much

It looks like nitrogen toxicity because the leaves are so dark green and really prominently serrated.
I see a little leaf edge curling which usually means excessive heat, root problems, possibly from overwatering and/or suffering from extreme humidity
Check out my blog
Let me know you have any questions!
@Caligurl @Treasurestoy love the blog. I’ll definitely have to try some when I get this part figured out lol. I’m kinda just lost at this point and don’t know what to do. I watered them yesterday with 32 oz of water each. They haven’t been watered since Saturday since I flushed them. I haven’t added anything but water. I really don’t know about the soil either. Here’s a pic of it

All that stuff in it add nutes to your soil except cc perlite and vermic everything else is adding something to soil so i may be just to hot you flushed so you maybe good now did you check the amout of nutes in your run off

Yea it was 2300 ppm. I was told that’s normal for this soil since it’s not immediately available. Also my temps range from 68-72F and humidity 40-50%

Ok. Is that a similar light I’m guessing. Didn’t see that one when researching. I’ll have to turn it down. My manual says during veg 60-90. So I’ll cut it 60. It’s in it’s dark period now so I’ll have to wait later. But I do have a few good stores around here that I can almost get whatever is online. If I were to go today what would be some good things for me to get for now and to have on hand. I only have ph up and down and that maxibloom which I’d prefer to use something organic and be feeding the soil instead of the roots

Ok i use ffhf and my soil read that when i had to do a flush on 1 of my plants. But i flushed til it was down to say1100 some thing all 9 of my plants was doing ok in the soil i just had 1plant that kept being n toxic so after the flush its now growing like crazy ill have to add some.

Gotcha. So my problem when i flush them is that this soil holds a good amount of water. And it takes almost a week to dry and I feel like the plants don’t do good in that time. So the bottom 2/3 is that Detroit’s that I put a picture and then happy frog the rest.

Sorry. I know that light. The abbreviation didn’t make sense at first lol
Awe ok yeah i use 2 of them and a uv light
Nice. I’m in just in a 2x4 so that’s all the room I got lol. I was looking at dr earths the other day and did like it. You put it on before you water correct and it’s not fast acting. Which dr earths do you use. I think I can get that at the hardware stores. I’m at 5 weeks from sprout now on autoflowers
That was my plan to only get a 2x4 but my partner kept dropping seeds in another room in my house closet and didnt tell me so when i went to order my tent he told me thats not gonna hold all our plants of course i was confused i only had 4 he comes out the back room with 6 plants so i took his bank card ordered my tint and another light he wasent to kin on that but he wasn’t gonna waste my seeds and was gonna have to grow them out. Sorry for going on and on
Dr earth i top dress and mix with the top few inches of my soil. And if i put in today my plants want really start getting it til this time next week cause the micro in soil has to use it first
