    Default bit of help please

    Hi I've had some cuttings given which was fine when i got them. Im using coco coir from the blocks you can get. They've been planted for a week but they've started going light yellow and what looks like brown spots on the ends of the leaves. I've fed them canna coco a+b but under the recommended dose. You can see by the pictures the leaves are curling under. I have some seedlings too that are going yellow but they haven't had food just ph'd water 6.0
    Im a soil+water farm grower so haven't a clue what it is.

    What lights are you using? Whats the temps? Whats the humidity.?
    What ec are you feeding? Whats the ec of your water? Whats the ph?
    How often are you watering? How much are you giving them.

    If you can answer these questions folks will have a better idea whats going on

    I'm only a novice mate so wait for a pro to come in but, did you flush the coco through when new? Also, what EC are you feeding? Looks like nitrogen claw possibly. But like I say, I maybe barking up the wrong tree mate. A pro will come along soon...

    Your Ph should be 5.6 to 5.8 going in and you need to know the Ec of the feed. The Ec you feed is determined by the background Ec of your source water. without these numbers your just guessing. coco blocks need a proper good clean not just a quick flush through. have you got any better pics without the HPS on ?

    Regards BL

    It's a little hard to tell with those lights on them. You say the tips are brown - and I can see clawing. By the sound of it, it's nute burn, and a nute be locking out other nutes, hence the yellowing.
