Greetings friends,
I have 2 plants in earthboxes in veg. They're in coast of Maine stonnington mix and in using the probiotic method with compost and bokashi on top and h20 with em1 in the res. They're in a 2x4 under a mars ts600 and a mars ts1000 with 2 autos flowering on the other side. They've been in the boxes for about 2 weeks with no issue until Tuesday evening (after watering with em1 on Monday morning)when i noticed lightening and some spotting and Browning. assuming it's a deficiency caused by improper ph i checked the ph of the res and it was 7.3/7.4 in each. I proceeded to add water phd at 3.5 to the res until overflow, attempting to bring it down. I got the overflow down to read 6.8 when i dripped my non-waterproof ph meter in the water reverting it useless. Since yesterday it appears the issue is getting worse. Unfortunately i cannot get anything to test ph until Saturday night to even check the res ph, much less adjust it. My questions are, does anyone know if a way that i can ensure 4 gallons of water id's between 5.8 and 6.8?and, is this phosphorus deficiency? Does Anyone know gouge to fix this if it isn't a ph issue?
