I had a rough go with OF so I switched to HF. Much happier with the hf. What are you using for water? Tap? Distilled? Ro? Spring?
im glad i poked my nose in on this thread …i just started my first soil grow in FF OF lol now yall got me scurred
Yep yer screwed
Over watering does not happen from too much water at one time, but by watering too often and not letting the soil dry between waterings.
I do not believe it is customary for Jack’s needing to be flushed. Jack’s is exceptionally well tolerated. So, if the soil needs to be flushed it is unusual. But like I said it is probably because of the lack / absence of runoff.
yep, this and incorrect PH have been, and created the issues I’ve run into and seen mostly there’s always others.
Im pretty sure its lock out cause i have signs of multiple deficiencies. Decided to flush and hope that fixes it.
Thanks for all the tips guys, been a big help! I will start watering to run off and check my ppms going forward. What about when im feeding nutes, should i still feed to run off then?
Yes on the water to runoff. Also make sure that they’re not sitting in the runoff
When is last time you checked calibration of your ph meter
This is the first thing I do when things go off the rails.
Usually… jacks is no problem but occasionally a plant is sensitive especially into flower mode.
I’ve got 3 strains in my tent right now, they don’t all love the same ratios so I had to find a middle ground. First plants I’ve grown with Jack’s that didn’t just love it
