too much azomite. minerals can wreak havoc in abundance.
Quite right and Fang, you already have the Rock Dust.....go light on the Azomite next time.
The strains are all fire bag seed. You may be right about sat/dom pickyness. 100% clone failure with that one. I use grandmas Molasses which has Cal/Mag. I totally recommend it.
I start my clones in "Potters Gold" after rooting in ROOT RIOT. Lovely stuff, no feeding for 30 days...
Then into my own soil mix, again a water only and it's a great producer.
I use a basic AACT once a week and straight water the rest.....At flower I add a ml of Sea Green once a week.....At Week 4 I spike the K by 3 every other watering and add a touch of Sea bird Guano to my tea (P).....I really like the separate organic nutrients now available. That's where I get the stand alone K and have been looking at the P one too......Hard part is to get myself to try it out.

Anyway, The Ca is done with Dolomite, Oyster shell and Crab meal in my soil mix.......Molasses is simply the food for the bio's in the tea making......to each his own!

grow on

Boron def is rare. Most likely a Manganese or Phosphorus def. Maybe Iron. Get a bottle of Micro nuts and give it a try.

Can't be a nute,pH or watering issue as all plants are fine accept those 2.

the high mineral level is just like salt build-up. I put a lb. of azo in a 35 gallon drum of mix. I wanna look over your other stuff.......I'm high.

man.......nice grow. on my way out to AZ to grow. *sounds of screaming bandit and pistola reports*
all good stuff you are using. hmmm......I personally do not care for foliar feed, but kelp is safe, imo. I spray with botanical soap every 10 or so days. all good stuff you use, and not cheap stuff. watch how much you use. I make a half-ton of base mix, and mineralize it. (I also veg garden) peat, poop, perlite........equal parts and limed.
I look forward to posting as a legal cannabis cultivator! *more gun-fire*

Quite hating on Azomite. The only thing your gonna get with too much Azomite is sandy/muddy soil if you don't have proper areation, and no deficiencies.

Edit: No mineral deficiencies, you can get NPK issues.

nah, man.....I totally dig it. but, its a mineral, and I'm cautious with it. I do not mix a batch up without it.
