yellow leafs

Discussion in 'Sick Plants and Problems' started by grease monkey, Mar 11, 2007.

  1. I have 10 plants given to me at about 7 or 8 inch`s high in six inch pots.After 5 days they were put into 14 in. pots with sunshine mix. I was told to water them every two days (or when
    ness.) with water mixed with Hortibic Rapid grow 20-20-20-,that was two weeks ago.I am now getting
    yellowing leaves.,,,,,,,,,,, Am I burning them with this stuff?
     
  2. check your PH , sounds like something is locking out the nutes

    test both your tap water and the soil runoff PH

    6.5-6.8 is optimum range
     
  3. If the last time they were fed nutes was 2 weeks ago then it is now time to feed them again.
     
  4. I am watering approx. every 2 days.
    The only store open today was Can.Tire..,I bought the only PH tester they had,
    and it is for pools.
    According to this PH tester ;acid=0 / alkalinity=180 / PH=6 / clorine=0
    This yellowing and dropping off of leafs is starting to affect all the plants...!!!!!!!
    I need help
     
  5. a ph of 6 is too low & right on the threshold of nutes locking out, apparently why your nutes wern't making any difference when you fed them.

    flush your plants with water corrected with PHup get the soil runoff to read 6.5-6.8 range, then feed again ....nutes reduced 50%
