Looks like a bigger problem than calcium because of the cupping leaves. What's your pH? Water/nute pH as well as run off would be helpful

I don't know what it is. I don't use nutes so I'm lost there. I just grow in ROLS

Generally if there's a problem, a good dose of Earthworm compost slurry can help. Especially if fresh

If it were me I think I'd do the EWC slurry. I don't suppose you know anyone that makes their own worm castings, do you?

EWC is IMHO the single most critical amendment. It has huge abilities to set things straight. A well built soil is almost set and forget.

If you'll let me, next time I would hook you up with ROLS recipe. Cheaper, easier, better, more pest free, tastier. I'll walk you through the whole process if you like.

I'm here when you or anyone else is ready. In the meantime, if the soil isn't too wet already, I'd try and get the best EWC you can and top dress a little at a time. First a slurry of EWC in water, then dry on top as a top dressing that you can water in. It's amazing what EWC can correct.

Also my opinion (and that's all this is) would be to halt the bottles. EWC has most everything you need, certainly until these are back online.

I think you can get this taken care of but you need to get the microbes on your side. No more bottles.

Next let's get you some worm compost. What grow shops are down there? They have to have bagged EWC.

Also- do you have any molasses?

OK see what grow store is near and give a call for EWC. Earthworm Castings. In a bag.

Corner store or grocery store will have Molasses. You want molasses from Cane sugar, and that's what is sold for people to eat. Just a small jar of the dark Unsulfured Molasses. Take a tablespoon, and ad to a cup of warm water. Stir to dissolve. Add this cup to water to make a gallon total. Water this into the soil along with the EWC.

This will help jumpstart the microbes, and start letting the plant control what it wants.
