<p>I needed to adjust Ph so I added some Calcium Carbonate last night. I will wait and see if the plants respond to it.</p>
<p>Thanks for your input.</p>
<p>I appreciate it.</p>

<p>Hmm, it sounds like there is calcium. I had a very similar problem, and I just had to wait it out. I suspect the nutrients are there, but are not bioavailable. No idea why. You can try cal mag foliar sprays. </p>

<p>I'm not aware that high Nitrate levels are all that bad. As your plants mature they'll take care of that. Keep in mind as you cut the fish food you're also cutting the nutrients to the plants.</p>

<p>When I was cycling the System, On Oct 25 , I dosed the System with Calcium Carbonate to raise Ph. No plants in Yet. On Nov 4 I dosed with Potasium Carbonate. On Nov 19 I dosed with Calcium Carbonate and Maxi crop. That is the day I planted the seedlings into the grow bed. So, Shouldn't there have been enough Calcium in the system already? This is what is puzzling me. </p>
<p>I understand that by not feeding the fish every day, because of the Nitrate spike, I have Lost a Source of nutrients.…</p>

<p>Hi Richard. I'm no expert but I think when your leaves get bumpy like that, it's a calcium deficiency.I didn't have very good luck with my spinach and I'm thinking it was because my room was to warm. Mine bolted early. Where's Vlad when you need him? He could probably answer this in a heart beat.</p>

<p><span>Looks like a calcium deficiency to me. Maybe a bit of iron deficiency too.</span></p>
