Greetings farmer's, I don't mean to hijack anyone's post. I'm having an issue with my plant. It's silly but the leafs seem to be eating themselves. I've checked with a usb scope and no pest, no caterpillars.
I dont mean to be rude but you could of easily made your own post as i did

Nitrogen is one of the primary elements needed for this stage :
Red/purple stem
Slow growth
Pale leaves

You just cant throw anything at it to fix. You gotta know what it needs.
So .... Get you a feed that is better than big bloom at this point ...
Big bloom is a small part of actual Fox Farm Trio ...

Go online and look for feed schedule ... Start at HALF STRENGTH until you see a response from the plant and stick with it. Screwing up during this stage will guarantee a small plant . JUST SAY NO TO SHITTY PLANTS.

The 6-4-4 grow big will be fine for now I would think.

Alright ill throw it in there when i get home then feed em next watering. Hope it helps get me going in the right direction
Sounds good. Use both and mix 1/4 strength and water until 20% runoff to prevent salt buildup.

Remember if they need more you can give it to them but if you over do it, its hard to correct.

Lots going on there. Do you have an EC meter? Spinosad and mosquito dunks will solve your flier problems.
Plants looks super hungry to. Deffo short on mag and calcium and P atm.

Can you describe how you water your plants? How much do they get? do you water till runoff?

I do not have a ec meter kinda tapped at the moment gonna get one soon.and i know those buggs are bad man i putt veg oil in some tubs and sat it on top the soil seems to be killing em as soon as they land on it and sink to the bottom.
I use a gallon of water or so i just watter till i see a little run off on the bottom. I just started useing foxfarm grow big last feeding so i hope that helps fix some issues idk tho like i said any advice is helpful only my second grow and my last one was with way better soil i got from a friend and cfls so idk just winging it thanks for the response.

Next run keep some spinosad and mosquito dunk money handy dude youll never see a flier again. And the EC meter has helped me more than the ph meter in soil so grab that at least.
If you got epsom salt I would do 1 tsp per gallon and do a foliar spray at lights on. They deffo need some mag with their roots gettin munched on aint helpin.

Root zone feedings will be much less effective until you get rid of the bugs for good. The more damage they do to the roots the worse your plants will look deficient in something.
