First Octopot Grow!

hey man… Yes 1/2 tsp of calmag everytime.

PH got away from me a few weeks ago and it was down in the mid-fives not too bad but that’s when all this started and has just progressed.

What is 1/2 teaspoon in ppm ?

1 Like

no idea. Should I fill the gallon jug I use measure PPM and then throw in half a teaspoon of Cal mag and measure PPM again?

Just the next time you feed
Take note of the total ppm every time you add something , to find out the ppm of each product you add

Suppose you can do it now if you like and use it in next feed so no waste

Calmag I always add first when mixing

Mid fives doesn’t seam a lot on paper buuuuutttt it’s actually a huge drop

Anything lower than 0.2 a drop is significant in most grow systems

I wouldn’t use feed if more than 0.1 lower than I wanted

What caused it ?

PH of just tap water is 7.8
PPM is 90

With 1/2 tsp of Calmag PPM is 220

With GHMB & Calmag I’m at 6.2 pH & 950 ppm

So ppm of calmag is 130 ppm

Maybe add calmag so it is 150

Total in Rez 240 , calmag plus tap

950 total in Rez is quite high , I never go over 750 800 ,at full flowering w5-w8

The high ppm in Octo with it going unused and building in pot over time may be the cause of drop in ph

You got burnt tips or clawing at tips ?

Thanks man! I’ll try an extra quarter teaspoon see if that helps out. Should only be about another month at most, other than the rust spots on many of the leaves she’s looking good and smells amazing.

Use your meter and serindge to measure how much to add , not teaspoon ie keep adding small amounts till required ppm of each product used is reached and move on to the next

She looks great : ) these just minor points to think about on next grow : )

Forgot to take just take a pic… Just chopped her and hung the whole plant upside down, here she is about a week ago.

I normally reuse most of the soil but I couldn’t use any with this one the sleeve was super dense with roots.
