Rapidly growing at this point but still having problems with random dead spots forming.
I guess we can safely rule out those spots being from a spill.

I am not very comfortable diagnosing plants. I suggest doing some research on deficiencies. If I were to guess, I would say it looks like cal/mag deficiency.

What nutes,strength, are you using?
Nutes every feed?
Ph of your feed?
Tap water?
What is your medium?
How often are you watering, and how much?

Ph is 6, nutes have been every other feed. Water isn't tap water, it is filtered do thru a good filter. Coco is medium. I water when getting good and dry and til I get quite a bit of runoff. I wondered calmag myself and added a good amount Friday.

I believe those spots on the tips of newest growth was a calmag issue. The stopped spreading and hasn't got any bigger. Don't know about the bottom part tho. I just hope it stops spreading

that's what it looks like to me...cal-mag def

coco typically requires a cal/mag suppliment

I beleive calcium deficiency shows signs in new growth. So assuming the new growth tips was that is a good call imo.
Mag on the other hand shows signs on older growth.

I recommend looking into a foilar spray of some diluted cal/mag before lights go out.
I have never done it but seen to remember reading that this is the quickest remedy.

Maybe consider giving cal/mag every feed. Because you aren't using tap water you aren't getting the benifit of the elements in it. I'm not saying to use tap water, just pointing out what could be the issue here.

Anyway, look into foilar spray. I hope it helps. Otherwise, she looks awesome!

Peace

Thanks, I haven't had and new dead spots since Saturday morning so hope I got the problem solved. And I agree about that calmag, it seems to have fixed it. I think I had a combo of cal/mag deficiency and nutes burn

Calmag won't burn my leaves like other nutes? By the way, I have another plant that is a lot smaller due to late transplanting but it looks good, minor nute burn but healthy other than that. I got carried away with nutes last week. Learned my lesson there. Excited for my next grkw, think I can get that one closer to perfect!! Just hope I get a yield off this one. I'm waiting on the smoke. Recently moved to this town for work and my plants are my only source

Sure, it would burn them if you overdo it. I was only recommending your original dose, which was obviously not enough, to be increased to every feed rather than adding more every other.

If what you are doing now is working then stick to that plan.
If the problem is fixed you will be fine and can expect to be rewarded.

I'm pretty excited and a little shocked things are going so well now. Hope it continues like this. My plants are being easy and seem to handle the nutes and everything really well now.

Im 9 days into flowering. I have got lots of inner growth, it all seems to be flourishing really well mainly because of my 2 65 watt CFL that im using for side lighting. I'm hoping it makes a big difference on the quality and density of bud created by my inner growth since I didn't train the plant at all. Wanted to go all natural being my first grow.

Is there any product that anyone would recommend other than flora bloom which i'm already using to maximize my yields without burning my plants up?

How long did you veg for before switching to 12/12. Sorry if you answered that already, I couldn't find it in the thread.
Thanks
