Pic would help.

But all the same strain? Clone or seed?

If seed, phenotype variation can have different requirements for Ca and Mg to other pheno's.


If your leaves are pale green and going yellow from the bottom up then adding some veg nutes will slow it down.


Don't listen to the hype about veg nutes not being good for flowering.

I have used a 6-3-8 base nute start to finish but have just changed back to my old 5-4-3 due to high levels of K causing an issue with uptake of Ca and Mg in coco coir.

Looks like a magnesium deficiency to me.

Check how much Mg is in your nutes by checking the bottles. 2% is good, anything less or if your using to you'll need a calmag supplement.
