nuteburn/lockout caused by your high ph. that shits way too high it shouldnt be higher than 7.2 no lower than 6.4 in soil.

Its the run off thats 8,7. When I water, its obout 6,5 and 7. But until few days ago I only watered with rain water, and that shit is only about 7,5. So it isnt what you are saying.

Please help me.

I can only speak from what I have read here because I'm a noob but I would
say that from what I have seen the RH is too low. Everything I read says veg chamber should be 80-90%.
Also, if your pH is 8.7 it can't be a good thing, in anyway.
I wish I could offer more help and I hope someone can.
Good Luck.

royalty mix is soooo hot...i think they are stunned....I suggest you water them with only water for a a couple of weeks.....your not in the clear yet...and with that high of ph you plant should be toast.....runoff is't always accurate as a reading..It only indicates.....and on top you are giving 20 ml canna vega already...per liter or gallon?? in any case thats not good combined with that royaly mix....

If you right, Im dead.

They didnt show any signs of nute burn the first week, at all. So thats why I gave them 20ml to 10l water.

Can it be saved, or would it be easier to start all over ?

Thanks for the help, btw.

If it's nute burn flush with 3x the volume with good ph water.That should leach out any nutes.

do go jumping overboard.....plain water in the near future....i sometimes have that to with my plants...I took a pic specially for you .....this is how they turn out after a while of canna professional....bit worse ...but new growth is looking fine and that is what matters here...you can see i cropped her...and her new growth is greener as you can see on the bottom of the pic...





i see many people confuse this with a N def or a Magnesium shortage...and its not...but as always, when you see a few burned tips you are giving to much of something.....or just enough !

Not just yet..... Maybe its my luck, that I flushed all off them with 20L rain water each, the day before I watered with nutes. I did that because I wanted to make sure that all the nutes from the soil was gone, because I had a conflict going on in my head. Was it too much or to little !?
The main reason I thought it was, a lack of nutes, was because I had mixed around 25l unfertilized soil in the Royalty mix.
I´ll give it three weeks and if I still having trouble, I´ll start all over again with a seed, mother and so on.

Thanks again for your help.
