good post.Brother_Monk said:I keep mums in promix one gallon containers....they usually need a watering every 7-10 days. Your plants are much smaller than my mums. Why promix for a hydro medium? That one has me scratching my head. You can go to the local aquarium shop and buy a bag of rocks that would be way better medium if you need to go cheap. Your problem is not nutrients. I would take an edumacated guess and say its the beginning stages of root rot. And by the looks of it, the one plant that is dying is a sign that the others are soon to follow if you dont get their feet dried off. Good luck bro!

I guess you would only use a low rate considering his ferts contain calcium and magnesium + the tap water has calcium. Right?ethereal said:re-lime
If anyone comes up with a better recipe, please do post it.sproutco said:For 10 gallon rez (not to add to just 1 gallon):
110 ml 3-1-4 This has 117 ppm k
117 k/2 = 59 amount of ca needed. Need 24 more. There is 30 in your tap so add no cacl2.
117/4 = 29 amount of mg needed. Need 11 more. 1/8 teaspoon epsom gal = 15 ppm mg. 11/15 x 1/8 x 10 gallons = 11/12 teaspoon epsom salts or about a teaspoon
The first thing is pH...it is very difficult if not impossible to grow successfully without a way to test your pH...
Seriously, he can worry about his nutrients when his nutes aren't locked out anymore.

first, leach/flush the mix with lots of plain water,
to remove as much of the residual salts/nutrients.
sterilize,
re-lime, and bring moisture levels to field capacity
when you are ready to plant your new starts/clips.
peace.
