They’re small and idk 3 weeks old, no signs of deficiency aside from blossom end rot.

Was set up with Manutec 1L Hydroponic NK Plus For Fruit And Veg. Water is about half depleted, has been hot so possibly nutrients are concentrated?

pH had risen to about 7 from 6.5. I readjusted it to about 6.5. In dirt this range would be fine for calcium transport.

Oh hydroponic wisdom people, enlighten me. Should I just remix new solution? Add a supplement? Is pH for transport different in hydro?

    Went out this morning and a fresh round of squash flowers had bloomed. There was a handful of gnats in then and a happily little bee doing it’s thing.

    I feel like they would get fertilised under that sort of condition but I took a male flower and manually did it anyway.

    Fingers crossed it’s as simple as poor pollination and I’m just fretting because hydro is new to me.
