Hi guys, I'm trying my hand at a grow again for the first time in a few years. Strain is Amnesia Lemon feminized and I'm using an ebb and flow system with a 12 litre reservoir and perlite as the grow medium. When the seed struck, I put it in a humidifier thing for a week then put it in my grow cupboard in the ebb and flow system on the 4th of August. Until yesterday (22nd August) I was only using a CFL on 24 hours, yesterday I swapped to LED with VEG selected and changed to 18/6. I am using Cultiplex Extra-Nutrex GROW food at minimum strength of 6ml into 12l. I was using it a little stronger but the PPM was very high and the leaves went quite pale with darker green veins. At the current feed strength, the colour came back to the leaves and I can keep the PPM between 100 - 200 and the pH at 5.9, although the pH slowly creeps up over a few days. I'm also using De-Fuse nutrient conditioner at minimum strength (recommended because I'm on tank water). The feed system is set to come on for 15 minutes every 4 hours.
I noticed a couple of little spots a few days ago but thought it might have been light burn as I'd originally had the CFL quite close but with the CFL gone, there are a few more spots and the older ones are bigger. I've read through the FAQs and I thinking it looks a calcium deficiency. Can anyone confirm or correct me please?
