What did I do to these poor plants? And how do I fix it?
These ladies were bought as clones from a dispensary around 12/1 and they've never looked great. I thought they'd straighten out and take off but maybe I'm holding them back.
This is my first soilless grow so I'm sure there is a lot I'm doing wrong. I'm using Bruce Bugbee's peat recipe (50% Peat + 50% perlite/vermiculite + 40g/cuft of Dolomitic Lime + 10g/cuft Gypsum) and Jacks 321 nutes.
I think the problem might be potassium/phosphorous lockout. I mixed my previous res at an EC around 1800-1900 and seems to have burned them. I diluted the nutes with RO water till the EC dropped to 1600. I gave them an extra long watering at 1600 and measured the runoff at just above 1600. I'll measure the runoff again this evening.
Current nute mix: pH: 5.7-8 & EC: 1600 uS
How do I make them healthy?
Thanks!

if you have means of running RO would definitely recommend it over tap. What’s temp and rh? Love for renfro to chime in on this
