Confused

So I’m came to the assumption that my soil “purple cow living soil” is to powerful and is burning my plants. What should I do about this ? Here are some pics and please no one tell me it’s over watering because it’s not I have solved every other problem the only other possible option I believe is a cal mag def but I’ve been adding cal mag every watering now and still the issue worsenes! And it’s not root bound on the small clones because it’s happening to my big plant too! This soil is brand new ! So I’m super confused. Thought it was a K def but I’ve heard and read that a K def only happens in flower. What shall I do! All the same strain “OG Kush”

Stop adding CalMag.
Because I thought it was cal mag def. Something isn’t working I mean at this rate Even adding water only is gonna ruin the plants
Why are you adding calmag to a water only soil? Calmag is overused and typically not ever required unless you're growing soilless with RO water. Excess calcium will impede the uptake of other nutrients needed by the plant.
because I thought it was a cal mag def I don’t know. This was happening before the cal mag. And honestly the plants look way better after adding the cal mag. That’s why I’m very confused is it possible the soil is just to powerful and that’s it ?

Take some steps back bro.

only water when needed. Let the plant recover. That’s what I personally would do.

How could they possibly look better after? Plants don't heal damaged leaves.

It looks like you have a potassium deficiency. Most likely caused by an excess of calcium.

I’ve thought that but I’ve heard and read you cant have a K def till flower. And before the cal mag the plants were looking very wilted and leaves were curling more. Cal mag most definitely made them look more presentable 100%

Do you ph your water and if so what ph do you water with?

you’re going to have to give some grow details to get any real solution.

CalMag made them better.

I added CalMag and it's gotten worse.

You obviously can't make up your mind. Good luck.
Dude what? I never said cal mag made it worse read the post lmao. I said after adding the cal mag it made my plants look more lively which it did. This issue been going on way before the cal mag bozo

Read your own quote. I see why you are confused now. You literally said you've been adding CalMag and the plants have been getting worse.

Why are you calling people names? You're the one with the messed up plants and you're calling others bozo?

Good luck with your plants.


I’ve been adding cal mag every watering now and still the issue worsenes!

My understanding is that cal mag supplementation is more of a hydro/soilless medium thing.

Does soil even need cal mag added, live ever?
