Plants staying lime green HELP?

Discussion in 'Coco Coir' started by King Loki, Jun 18, 2019.

  1. Hey guys, im having issues with my plants staying lime green and drooping a bit

    I'm using a HLG 135v2 quantum board at 23 inches
    Growing in coco coir 70/30 mix
    550ppm
    3ml cal mag
    2.25 ml micro
    2.25ml Gro
    0.6ml bloom
    5.8 PH
    Humidity 50-60
    temp 25 degrees C
    RO water

    I had some cal-mag issues early on but they seem to be gone now, I was feeding gat 6.2 PH because I was told that was the best for calcium absorption and I have since then gone back to 5.8 ph ...the leaves on the bigger one seemed to be a bit droopy as well ... the bigger plant is 12 days old, the 2 mid sized are just on 7 days, and the smaller one is 5 days.

    I have done some grows before
    and my seedlings have always been picture perfect like this so im not 100% sure what happening

    the only thing I have changed this grow is feeding at the 6.2 for better cal mag absorption for the first week as was told to me by a pretty good grower ... if anyone can help me out here it would be much appreciated
     
  2. How often are you watering/feeding them? And did you buffer your coco or buy buffered coco?
     
  3. I double buffed my coco and washed it ... it was 2x 8 hour buffer soaks and i feed them twice a day
     
  4. What a pain right I just finished buffering a brick of coco and I've decided to only buy coco that has already been prepared.
    Sounds like your doing everything right so I'm not sure what to say next.
     
  5. yeah t
    yeah haha thats why im stumped haha ... never really had issues at seedlings stage before

    ill check the runoff at lights on in 2 hours, maybe something major is happening in there
     
  6. Yeah me either as long as we follow the "rules " I've never had any problems in coco. The look of the plants suggests a lockout to me. Have you checked your runoff?
    I would probably do like a 1/2 strength flush with a lot of water 3 times the container size
     
  7. i have florakleen so ill check run off at lights on if it's over 150 ppm higher ill give them some florakleen for 1 fertigation
