Calmag was just purchased regardless. I want these girls to turn out the best they can and I just got done reading the magnesium is what really promotes photosynthesis and growth so I don’t want to mitigate those two things. Will be here Sunday, hoping they don’t get to bad till then. @Hust17 let me know how yours went? Do you have pics or a journal?
Yes I do, I’ll throw up a photo of the one in question later today :) link to my grow is in my signature

Yah I got one for side lighting ... it’s really just old technology.. mars does cheap nice white light leds for dirt cheap . I got a ts1000 . Not as good as my old trusty 400 but low maintenance af! Good for personal stash grows.
Goin for a Timber grow lights soon...seems to b the best for price for what I need

In my mind I like to picture the soil being healthy n clean so I try n feed as little as possible but definitely feed when necessary...so I try n get as many straight waterings as I can in...pot size plays a big role in all that too...not sure what size ur using...I use 7gallon smart pots...1 to 2 plants at a time small grow...but ima big believer in larger pots as opposed to smaller ones...just makes better plants in my experience and less feeding n watering...root space is important
Yeah I wish I watered like this. But how can you tell when it needs nuts? I’m in 3 gallon pots. Next grow I’ll be doing 3 5gallon instead of 6 3 gallon

Yeah bigger pots less plants sounds like a good idea...
You can tell when it needs fed when the leaves start to lighten...it'll always start at bottom of plant 1st...when plant can't find nutrients in soil itll begin to cannibalize itself starting from bottom up...always...so when u see a leaf or two at bottom beginning to lighten n wanna turn yellow...feed

I’ll keep that in mind for next grow. Now I just gotta figure out what’s currently going on. I think I’m going to keep doing just water the next few times, if that doesn’t help or it gets worse I’ll feed again and throw in the calmag I ordered. Keeping fingers crossed.

With 3 galls at the that rate n size use plain water every other feeding or bettter like 2 feeeding then one flush. . If you have a 5 gallon it will stay wet longer and it’ll get less nutes since you’ll be watering less. You reallly just want to feed them once or twice a week ,. And let them drain out the salts .. or you could go lighter if your feedin every other day

There's nutrients stored in the leaves hence the vibrant dark color green...when th plant gets hungry n there's no nutes in soil itll start to draw from leaves...bottom up...some desire this towards end of flowering forcing the plant to use up nutrients in the plant creating "the fade" effect you saw in my pics earlier...you'll hear organic soil growers talk about "the fade" towards end of flowering...that's what they're talking about the colors kinda like fall colors you'll see in a plant...I still get good yields nice buds

I think a healthy happy plant will give u a better yield than one struggling with nutrient issues even if under fed a little...u have plenty of nutes in soil and stored in leaves

Yeah man...1 week of straight water n reassess situation...I promise of week without nutes will do more good than harm

I’m confused. You’re saying it’s run out of nutes in the soil so it’s taking from the leaves and then you think the soil doesn’t need any more nutes?

I think you’re right, she is starved and is stealing from the leaves. But I don’t know why we wouldn’t feed her in that case?

No you've misunderstood what I said...talked Alot about stealing nutes from leaves but not pertaining to what's goin on now with his plant...said its desired by some towards end of flowering and it's a sure fire way to tell when plants need fed...

In his current situation I can't n couldn't n didn't come to a diagnosis...just said that straight waterings for a week to reevaluate situation would b good bc he said hes been feeding 3 waterings in a row and one straight water entire grow...so should b good on nutes...Idk why thise leaves are Ill lookin but I don't think it's under fed...hes been feeding entire grow n hes in 3gallon pots
