Something is wrong??

You've had lots of folk diagnose your symptoms, there's a pretty clear consensus. Not sure why you don't agree... What do you think the problem is?

Maybe indirectly this has something to do with the lack of quality soils available ATM

I was recently watching a show about the declining availability of meat

A few of the farmers were saying that since covid outbreak has restricted overseas imports they have not heen able to get quality herbicides

So in turn they arent able able to fertilise the feed they grow to sustain there animals

Simple no food for cattle, no beef etc for us

If they are experiencing this you can bet your arse the local soil manufacturer are suffering from the same issues

I’ve heard a lot of manufactures have started using more woodchip to volume out their product which would result in more nitrogen deficiencies

If water quality was the problem why like I said is every other plant I water with the same water from me wife's suclent garden to stag horns to indoor plants not showing any problems?

You on town water, tank, bore or what, porky?

Don't underestimate the importance of water quality.

Just because a product has a higher nitrogen draw down level doesn't mean it iwll show N deficiencies as long as it is accounted for. Also they generally use aged bark which has a N drawdown more inline with other organic ammendments still higher.

If I only had one source of medium I could understand what your saying Rez but I'm running 3 totally different soils and all are showing the exact same problem.
I also agree it's more that just one deficiency but to have the exact same problems with 3 different mediums is what's got me fucked.

So u got diff mediums and diff deficiencies but what is the main common denominator in all ure probs ?
Water
Is there anyway u can do a normal build of nutes into a bucket and get an analysis done ?

 

[Porky]

Yeah water is the common denominator here!!
But why is everything else I water healthy. Fuck my lawn looks great for winter!!
I have a water filter on my sink but not sure if it would work.

Nothing else you have is in a tent, in the shed, under lights, in small pots... .

True but fuck I've lived and grown in the same town for years now so unless they have fucked the town water almost exactly 4 months ago and it's only effectiving one species of plant out of at least 20 others I water with it something else is causing the problem.
Last 2 grows have been fine with exactly the same setup as current. Well except for hermies!!

 

[Billygoat]

spring water is cheap.. may as well veg them for a few more months...

 

[Porky]

I've actually got quite a few bottles of water here that I was given!!
Next few waters I'll water half the small plants with the bottled water !!

That only leaves either a gypsy curse, or that my suspisions are correct and Pedro is a wizard

 

[Porky]

It's possibly not a case of being healthier. It could be that your 'healthy' plants are more tolerant to whatever (chlorine, comtaminants, etc..) the other ones that are not.

 

[afghan bob]

Not exactly sure where u live mate, but during times of drought or floods, i've heard council will lower or raise levels of chlorine and other shit accordingly
Maybe some sorta change has happened recently
Like indy said diff species more succeptical 2 diff amounts dependant on health

 

[Sedge]

Just drink a gallon or two ,,see how you feel.

Say 3 afghan phantoms and 5 hail short arse pygmies and u should be right

A small pot is a vastly different environment than your garden.
I have a friend that a worked for Sydney water 4 years.
He checks local reservoirs down the coast , tests them and adds necessary chemicals to them.
You'd die if you see the shit that goes in there.
Bitchen big chlorine like tablets
I've had some and done some experiments with said pills .
They can dissolve bone overnight in water!
There big, one fits in the palm of your hand, can't remember exact composition.
When the weather is bad they pump the fuckers in there!✌

I drink heaps of water every day so do me kids!!

 

[Porky]

Yeah I'm going to water half the small plants with bottled spring water. See if they make a recovery over the next week.
I'm almost hoping they don't because if they do that means the water I drink at least a litre of daily is utter shit and probably worse for me and me kids than drinking Coke or some other shit!!

I'll just drink beer only!!
