Having a recurring problem and trying to figure out the cause. Medium is currently FF Happy Frog, I've previously used ProMix and had the same issue.
First week of veg is good, second colors start changing and growth slows a bit, 3rd color is no good and growth is very slow. Fan leaves appear blueish purpleish, stems are purple, newest growth is light green, fan leaves aren't as big as normal, the bud produced is powerful yet weighs close to nothing, very harry and somewhat loose, yeilded about 0.5/sqft.
This post seems similar, however no PH splotches on mine. The dark fans, but light new growth.
Naturally I thought it was a phos problem, however it begins in early veg, and I can't seem to effect the problem in a positive way.
This time around (FFHF) I've only done tests I haven't messed with anything yet but check my data.
Previously I've tried some test groups, some I changed the PH, some enhanced w a bloom booster, some I tried to leech the ProMix and start over. In general none of that had a positive reaction. So, this time around I changed into FFHF hoping changing into actual soil would fix my issues but alas no.
PH - Slurry test of soil says 6.5, I water at 6.5
Water - I was using RO in the ProMix, switched to Tap and that seemed to slightly help. Currently using bottled Gallons of "Spring Water" (Microfilter, UV, and ) as an attempt to test the source of water potentially. Watering based on when soil is drying.
Nutes - None yet 3rd week of veg, have been using Emerald Harvest
Container - 3 Gal Nursery
Environment - RH 45% - 55% , 69* - 75*
Light - Using Hystorm 2000w LED. Currently 3.5ft from canopy
I decided to test a plant in DWC hoping it might teach me something about my materials but unfortunately its very successful, so now I'm even more confused.
Kinda want to just change to DWC but I hate the sound of the pumps. Bought some CoCo to try out maybe.
Any ideas? Very confused, very frustrated. Miss when this made me happy .

Could Anyone ID what’s going on here
Is this a cal/mag deficiency? about day 25-27 for the ones these leaves are from. They have been in a mix of OF/HF and given light amounts of organic nutrients (Cold War Organics).
