Hi all,
My plants haven't looked great for a while - recently (2 weeks+) I have been fert dosing using a rough 50% EI regime, to try and cover all nutritional needs.
One of the things I don't add is any calcium, as I would have thought my tap water would have enough of this in (out of the tap Ca is 17.4ppm)
I dose EL EasyCarbo daily. 6W LED light is on for 7 hours per day.
Anyway, what do you think my plants need? Here are some pics
Crypt wedtii 'green' - Deformed growth, black spots and holes. New growth not as deformed as it used to be.
H. pinnatifida: Growing well albeit very green. The plant to the right of these 2 isn't as healthy, leaves are turning dark and dying lower down.
S. repens: Growing better than it has been, still a bit pale
Little Java fern - Seems fine, one of the leaves has black spots though
Rotala rotundifolia, grows well enough - still a bit pale. Not signs of pink/red at all
Everything else - dwarf hairgrass and java moss seem to grow OK, moss especially
Any help much appreciated, cheers!
