Hi
i have flowers in plastic, UV resistant, buckets. They are clones in Jiffs hanging in plastic baskets slightly touching water surface. I have used Biobizz starter pack, mixed it with tap water and filled buckets with it.
PH was decreased by Citric Acid 3 days ago, but raised up to 7,2 again just one day after. Now i am stuck with approx 7,2 and i am not sure if i should continue to add Citric Acid.
Water in tanks also stinks, but i suppose you have to expect this when one of fertilizers is fish mix.
It is about week i have placed clones there and from the very beginning they have below symptoms:
I believe its caused by deficiency of some nutrients necessary for healthy grow.
Can be caused by high ph? I decreased ph to 6,4 once, but another day it was back to 7,2 and i wont do it again for two reasons
- could it toxic to flowers? (i am using Biobizz´s product which states Citric Acid)
- it is time consuming and as there was not outcome before i don´t want to mindlessly try it again.
Can be caused by insufficient nutrients in the first place? Is there a way how to measure nutrients in my solution? Can this be done by EC meter?
I would like to ask you to advise me as i am new to this and there will be some mistakes in my doing.
Thank you!
