hey man i see your using the Gh line something i noticed recently was some of my plants were like yours, going slightly light greenish, so i did a little research and discovered GH to be a little light on magnesium. now i mix a gram of Epsom salts to every 3 to 4 liters of feed, only discovered this on friday and the plants already look noticably happier... anyway thought id share...

Noted Chris thats probably one way to do it, way I heard was Half a teaspoon Epsom salts to a litre once only two weeks before the end of veg. And again same dose 3-4 weeks into flowering. Probably legitimate ways of doing the same thing, wonder what method is the best tho ? PS most likely yours despite my method one of my plants is still looking a bit lighter than the others, will ponder this dilemma

I was noticing some purple stems too which I heard was another sign of Mag deficiency. I think I'll be picking up some Epsom salts soon. What would you recommend as a dose per gallon of water?

I got some advice yesterday from a fellow member, cannabineer, who thought 1 gram per litre as a one or two time fix when you notice the change in colour, or a gram of Epsom to every 3 to 4 liters of feed as part of the feeding schedual... anyway i trust this guys opinion so im treating the plants that look slighty yellowish green with a fix dose and starting the rest on the light mix...

Okay, so I gave the Mangos a dose of Epsom salt today. The dose was 1.5 grams every gallon and gave each plant 2/3 a gallon of water, as to not overdose the Mangos with Magnesium and Sulfur. They haven't shown any noticeable signs of change yet, but i wasn't expecting any until at least tomorrow or the next day. Unfortunately I have a broken camera at the moment, so there will be no pictures for a little while. This problem will be fixed soon though. Anyway, peace 'til next time my friends.

I'm sure its what they need Gryz, and given in normal doses it isn't toxic whether the plants need it or not, but good to see things are progressing as they should, look forward to seeing some pics when you eventually get the means to provide them, got an eye on Mangos as a future grow and this thread was a teaching thread for me.
