We have a few Blue Dream that popped 21 days ago. We are starting to get yellowing of fan leaves and red stems. They are grown in Promix and properly watered. Any ideas as to what we are missing that is causing this? They receive calmag and sweetener with every watering and other nutes about once a week. Temps and humidity are spot on.

Yep, they're N deficient. I dont know what you used during the veg stage, but its best to run veg nutes for at least the first 2 weeks into the flower cycle. I've found that to fix this problem and they stay a nice green longer into flower.
I wouldnt get too crazy in trying to fix this at this point. IMO those effected leaves are not going to recover anyway. You dont want to overload N too far into flower.
Good learning experience and next time you run some plants, you'll know what to do a little different.
Be careful that you don't burn up the grow by trying to fix it.

They receive calmag and sweetener with every watering, the flowering nutes ive been doing about once a week. Im definitely thinking n deficiency also, but i was keeping those nutes regulated to once a week because i did not want to over do it. We have switched from hydro to promix so im trying to readjust and figure out whats best for growing like this. How often would you recommend flowering nutes with a soilless mixture?

If your running pro mix soilless, then u should be using nutes every watering for 3 in a row then a ph'd clear watering.

I will start 3 on 1 off tonight, thanks!! And i do mix everything together when watering, but was advised to only flower nute once a week. It definitely didnt seem like enough tho.

Yes everything. Why don't u give us a list of your nutes then we can tell u. Might be easier.

Im about to head to the garden and will send a list thru in a few minutes. Im definitely wanting a change on nutes tho... id like to go more natural and less chemicals. Any preferences by your experience?

I'd go with hard core chem nutes. Your in a soilless man pump that girl up. Go full steam ahead. Go in there cussing, push your wife out the way and go to work friend. The way your growing right now is how huge yields r done with 3-4 week veg time. U just need to get your feeding right.

Lmao... this is the girlfriend :P.... no wifey to push out of the way ... but ill go in cussing lol. This is what they are being fed now. It was recommendations from a "hydro store" im pretty exhausted trying to find whats best for them. I want them getting what they need, but people seem to be off on their information and its hard knowing who to actually listen too.

We're using RO water with a pH of 6 at the start. Ppms for feeding nutes are holding around 1500 and a pH of 5.75-6. I guess i should have checked, but do levels run different from hydro to soilless? Sry if thats a stupid question lol
