Let's play "what's the deficiency"

[Mr Nurse]

@Mr Nurse I agree you have some kind of cal/mag/iron thing going on.

I want to know more about your soil.

Also, what about watering? If you let them get really dry, then douche them hard every time that could be the cause of this. MG will grow good weed when used judiciously. Nutrient salt fertilizers aren’t scary, once you understand how they work. And organic fertilizers are not sme magic cure. Not saying it is bad, just not magical as some will have you believe. The plants literally cannot tell the difference, biologically, between nutrient salts and organic nutes, don’t let people tell you otherwise.

We need a shitpot more detail about your process and setup, and those plants are definitely not ready yet. You could harvest, but don’t.

Get Read Spear’s second book, consider his advice. It is the best how to manual on the shelf. I don’t think his grow methods are necessarily any better than some others I have seen, but the science and practical advice in the book is better than...everything else. All newbs should buy it immediately, I wish I had.

Thanks Michael Huntherz
And thanks for your post, all info welcomed
Very newb with first grow and if there is a book I've done the opposite of all of it lol
Soil is 1/3 top soil 1/3 MG and 1/3 organic veggie blend all stuff I had in the garage.
In1.5-1.75 Gal buckets with poor drainage.
In the beginning I was told I was overwatering,so now it's a light pot about every 4 days then about 28oz to 1qt each.
Have added no nutes except one application 3 wks ago of a 1 3 1 and then a week later adjusted the ph down to 6.8 from 7 and gave 1/4 strength calcium and now a week later just 6.8 water again because it looks better, further I'm trying not to use much of anything for fear of risidual MG and I also don't want to have to flush d/t poor drainage and all that water again provokes the MG concern.
I agree they aren't ready , and my first view of one of my OWN trichomes, they all look pretty clear if I'm seeing right.
But as I was saying I'm racing weather and really just wanted an opinion that I'm still looking at probably 4 more weeks which is going to be very tricky with dropping temps and heavy humidity in route.
Do you think that looks about right?
Thanks again for your input and advise.

Do the best you can to manage the weather, I am sure this is a calmag issue but unsure of the specific cause. Don’t fret about pH of your water, sounds like your tap water is pretty good, pH 7 is fine for soil. Water at that pH is unlikely to be above 150ppm tds, so I would not mess with it unless your nutes send the pH way off in one direction or the other.

Was only looking to lower the Ph a bit to hopefully improve calcium uptake. Hopefully I have put my last anything in, unless the calcium gets to be a problem again with too many leaves involved.
But please, as a guess like mine, what's your opinion of my 4 week plan , that would be 8 weeks since my version of 12/12 began and they were pre flower before I turned them.
Thanks again!!

No worry, and you are welcome, just dropping my two cents on you. Best of luck!
