HELP having problems with Advanced nutrients connoisseur

There are 20 babies in a 2x4 grow tent, normal temp, have not checked the temp of water, yes i have checked PH and it is between 5.5 and 5.8.. nutrients are being followed as the online feeding chart says. But the babies look like they may not make it!! Has anyone experienced anything like this before? Should I cut down the nuts? Could my feeding water temp cause that much damage? By the looks of my plants and the pictures to diagnose issues like these online, looks to me as if I have multiple problems, which is leading me to believe that it is getting too much of everything.

Also I would like to add, I have two plants in buckets with the SAME EXACT solution in the same room, same everything. That look totally fine! I dont know!

I am going to empty the res tonight, re due measurments again, check ph again, check water temp again, double check on room temp again, and also add some Revive to the solution to try and fix some of the problems.

If anyone else can help, I am desperate!

Thanks

without seeing them its hard to say, but it might be overnute. Nutrient companies love to sell more units by suggesting a very strong dose on the label. what are you using?

What type of system? soil or hydro, if the plants are just little and just entered the system they will stop growing and not look that good for a few days. more info needed. how old are they?

they are on a 2x3 tray using grow blocks, ebb & flow system. and there are an additional 2 plants in deep culture buckets. (those are the two plants useing the same exact nutes, and are perfectly fine)

They look even worse from yesterday. They are so CRISPY.. I almost want to consider them dead

No they are not babies, they are in their first week of bloom, and were in veg a considerable amount of time.

Im am coming to the conclusion that it is a nut overdose, so anyone using AN Connoiseur, lower the feeding chart. will update when i know what that is

The key here is to figure out what the variables are. You've got some plants that are happy and some that are not. What's different?

You've got ebb & flow versus dwc. What else? Are the plants different sizes? Anything else?

If you can track down the potential variables and check them it should lead you right to what is causing the problem.


That said, Connoisseur is very concentrated, and thus very easy to overnute. It's always better to start out too light than too heavy. Of course that's true of all nutrients.

Yeah, not sure why you think the Connoisseur is the problem. What else has changed with your setup?

the some plants are fine, others are not seems to indicate osmething else is going on

I haven't used Connoisseur yet, but i've heard with Advanced Nutrients, you need to start with half strength first to see how yoru plants take it.

good luck!

Yes - you need to start WAY lower than recommended with connoisser and all advanced products. I would keep ppms at half strength (around 500-600) for first week of vegetative growth using sensigrow A&B and work your way up to 700 or 800ppms when you put them into bloom. During bloom, gradually work your nute mix up to 1100 over the next 4-5 weeks. It depends how easily your strain burns, you must pay attention to the plant. DO NOT EXCEED 10ML/GALLON or 2.5 ML/LITER of CON A or CON B per week and always add same amounts. Keep ppms the same as you had them during veg growth and every week raise by around 100ppms. Keep ph around 5.8. If you notice leaf tips curling or yellowing, lower ppms slightly.
