Re: Perfecto SHO vs. Power Compacts and where to buy?



Paul,

Your symptoms of deformed new growth would appear to indicate a calcium and
magnesium deficiency, which is something reserved, usually, for us R/O water
users.  You say that you neutrally buffer your water?  I assume you mean you
are just adding a pH buffer of some kind and this is not enough.  R/O water
is severely lacking in calcium and magnesium, and these must be added back
before using the water for plants or fish.  Try a product such as R/O Right.

Providing more light to these plants will just make them try to use up what
little resources are available faster, so it will only accelerate your
problems.

Welcome to the balancing act!
