I am returning to growing after a 15 year hiatus and am realizing I have forgotten a lot. I am having problems getting going here. My problem is that my seedling is barely growing and the leaves are turning yellow.
I am running a DIY Waterfarm with a controller. I am running on tap water (7.7 ph and 75-100 ppm) with GH Flora series using the Lucas formula (no Grow just Micro and Bloom).
I started out running the lower 0-5-10 Lucas formula which yielded a 1090 ppm in my water. I now realize that was too much for a seedling and I diluted it to 450ppm around 24 hours ago. I am also noticing that my ph keeps climbing to 6.5. I’ll lower it to 5.5 but the next day it’s back up to 6.5.How much of a problem is that and why won’t it stay where I set it? Preformatted text
