So I got a few pictures here, I was experiencing a slight problem with this before I upgraded my nutes but I grow hydroponically and using the
hydroponic trio flora
Cali mag
Hydro guard
Air pump at all times and the ph around 5.5-6.3.
I think it’s potassium but I’m not exactly sure. If y’all can help me out ill be extremely grateful.

phosphorus, calcium or fe, those seem to be the three that get growers, Epsom salts takes care of mag which usually takes care of calcium, fe need to lower ph

That would be because of the ph of the water then right? My ph has been fluctuating weirdly, but I set it at 6.2 and went to bed, woke up and saw the ph was at 6.7 and the plants had gotten bad again..
I’m just wondering if I gave them too much of a feeding because I did increase it by a lot.

my meter can't read some of my feeds, ppm! My water is 550ppm to start so if I want say 1200ppm its 1700, anything higher nada! Can't read it. I go with flow feed anyway, no probs. Where are they in life?

Wow! I use RO water and it sets around 19 ppm, I switched to RO because my tap water was extremely high. I end around 450-550 when everything is mixed in
Lucky you, tried bottled water, nothing but problems, now np! Think its cloramine killing bad crap and probably good also. Add a little Dynomyco into water every two weeks with mollassas and fulvic acid and sometimes worm castings. I'm sure water kills all the good, plants good so keeping the pace
