Unfortunately, I realized quite late that the plants ā or rather the tap water ā were causing major pH issues. This became noticeable through dry leaf tips as well as light green and yellowing leaves. Iāve never had pH problems before, so I didnāt think to measure it again. After checking, the pH was around 8.5, which I have now lowered to 6 using a pH down solution.
In addition to my usual BioBizz Bloom, Iāve now added Bloombastic and Iām hoping to report positive progress soon. The plant on the left is the most affected, even though it germinated at the same time as the one on the right. Of course, the damaged leaves canāt be saved, but the plant is still developing well, and I believe Iāll be able to harvest it without major issues.
Both Sweet Gelato plants smell incredibly good and sweet, and the Afghan is growing nicelyārobust and compact.
