I had recently put azatrol into my resevoir ( hope this wasnt a big mistake) as part of the drench application. I'm assuming now that this is for outdoor or soil use only. I started to get some spotted leaves- big spots and then some of them got bigger and is on 80% of my plants. Some of the dead spots are kind of stripped down the viens and some othe leaves that were really effected are pretty brittle. The Bigger plants seem least effected but they look like they had a little ph problem and all were not as dark green as I would like- and on all of my plants, the leaves are droopy. The PH jumped up .5 every day I checked my res and my ppm went down from 850 to somewhere in the 600s for a few days after that. I flushed my system and switched resevoirs. I upped the nutes to about 1200 and just bought some more expensives flora nova nutes because my fox farm i was using was pretty old... maybe im just being paranoid. I think azatrol is the real culprit here because I had to wipe the slimy film off the inside of my first resevoir and that water was still pretty white from the residual azatrol in the system. Could it be that the azatrol coated the roots to a point where they could not absorb nutrients? This is about the only thing I can geuss. I should have enough water from my ro system to change resevoirs again and add in the new higher powered nutrients. Any experience with this?
when you say flushed the plants, do you mean you changed the rez to pure water and the poured pure water all over your plant roots? if so and it still isn't looking better by the next day.. take off one leaf and take a picture of it ( since the leaf is deaf anyway lol) because the hid lines are making it difficult for me to see what the problem is here.
Thats what I did. But Now I forgot to mention that i was also usuing an AC unit with ionizer feature... im going to run back home now and shut that off because i think that may be what it is.... but pictures are comming in a litle bit.
yeah, the ionizer has to be it because normally when you flush the plants with water, they shouldn't get worse.
