Ok so I started some seedlings about 2 weeks ago. I am using fox farms strawberry fields soil.

My plants look trash af and i have no idea what the issue is.

Can anyone tell me wth is going on? I have a clone that is not having the same problems.

If your not over watering, bet your watering with chlorinated water, killing microbes which starves a plant.

If it is root rot chlorinated water will help get rid of it but to eliminate it you will have to bump up the chlorine a tad, safer to use perxoide.

I looked at the recommendation for PH on this mix .... which falls between 6.3 and 6.8.
FFOF always seemed to be at 6.3 ( when I used ) so that mix seems to be a bit different.

FFOF has more amendments ( crab , kelp and other shit ) but close.

I would definitely zero in ph on all watering and feeds ... it looks locked out . ( calcium / phosphorus/ and nitrogen) ...... my 2¢.

So, should i just run a flush or just use regular spring or distilled water for a week or two?

Update.

So stopped using the half tap half distilled and just went straight distilled. That appeard to be the biggest issue. I also think that the soil was too hot for the girls.

Things turned around in about 4 days. After that I feed them a meal half strength and gave them a foliar feed which I use a boost rhizo mix, what I always use to foliar spray. They are back at it for sure.

Thanks for all the help.
