    Default Answered: Am i under feeding?

    Ok so i have an oddity going on, 2 plants in particular (but all 6 are doing it) are continuing to claw and the bud leafs look odd. weird shapes n colors. So at the moment and for the last 2 weeks i have been feeding 0.8 ec feed (normally creep upto 1.2 +). There was obvious dark grren leaves and signs of over feeding that led to this 0.8. However the plants are not growing like they should.

    My tap water has changed ph from 7.2-6 to around 6.5 but the BG ec is 0.2-4 no different than any other grow other than the ph. So im left thinking all 6 are doing it so it must be something they all have in common, ie the feeding.


    Am i just being a wimp and need to up the EC ? nOT sure on best course of action, feeling quite newb tbf lol...

    often older damage won't repair even after correcting the problem

    buds look stunning smoby, definitely look to be swelling up"

    Hello mate, if you mean just the water and add the feed then read ph it sits around 6.5 ish sometimes less its odd mate, fluctuates a lot.

    I then ph down to 6.0 and let sit for an hour or so, then recheck it and adjust if needed. Temp always @ 18c also

    Is this COCO or DWC? You really need to get some photos up for advice.

    Thats the best i got at the mo buddy. i will grab some more tonight. Basically i see that the new leaves that are still growing on the buds are a bit twisted, half yellow half green but healthy enough. I have been under feeding by lots compared to normal. just thinking they may be v sensitive, like i say im no stranger to these runs and this is v different to normal. However, i see this on all buds here n there, maybe only a bit on some but its there. Find it hard to believe its too much N im using A and B canna coco. I flushed them till it was reading 0.2 Ec and then resumed with 0.6 feeds then up to 0.8. so it is odd, no salts in there surely

    When i bought the seed in the shop the stock had run out that i hads been doing. replaced with new packets of some anniversary pack. I gotta be honest the buds on the 2 that look like shit stink v true to the exo cheese, shame yield isnt same lol. So it may be a shitty yield but it will work im confident. Ill get another on after if im only gonna get a few months supply. Im wondering if Big buddah wuddah have fucked up their mothers or something.
