Is it hungry?

My dad has 3 plant in a 9ftx5ft tent with 2 600w Vireaspectrum LEDs, I know it's not enough lights for bloom but it's what he has. He has a Gelato, Cotton Candy and a Sweet Tooth x Gorilla Glue. His plants look healthy but his Gelato. Is it mote hungry then the others or what? (Middle plant)

I like this chart for deficiencies https://www.rollitup.org/t/bright-agrotech-nutrient-deficiency-chart.1052024/

If you’re growing multiple strains in one space that increases the difficulty level because you have different genetics and each plant may have different requirements for feeding and watering and be more finicky to certain conditions so it takes a lot more management. I know because I have never thrown all one strain in one room so I’m often on a seesaw trying to balance feeding and waterings

Homestly its probably nutrient lockout due to overwatering. Thats what overwatered plants look like and they will confuse you because they present with deficiencies but its because the soil is too muddy. Check to see how saturated that soil is. If its too rich and muddy Then that’s it. There are ways to aerate carefully but Overwatering is tricky because you have to wait for the plant to recover on its own without giving it more moisture. This is why the deficiency chart may not help you because the deficiencies are actually in my opinion caused by nutrient lockout based on the roots not getting enough oxygen and being unable to process and move nutrients up into the canopy of the plant

That's more like it now, thabks man. I told my dad to buy FFOF but he wanted to go cheap. So he bought home depot Organic soil but like you said dude its mud. You can literally make Mudd patties. LMAO this my my girl in my 2x4 tent at the house currently day 38 of flower. What you think? She is starting to get some purple around the edges of leaves. I think that's the Bud Candy I use.

Theyre nice. Frosty buds. Im at the same point in flowering with my sativa dominant hybrids. Today is day 41. Im also getting purple around the leaves. Never seen that before but it might be genetics or might be too much light in my case at least.

Damn you striped yours alot am I to late into flower to take more lower growth off? And I looked it up it says plants middle to late flower can get puplr around the edges do to phosphorus, which they said was good. But was told could be genetics too.
Edit: I only have a 2x4 tent with 414 true watts of LEDs. Heard that was plenty enough for a 2x4. Thinking about getting another TS1000 to make 2 of those as main lights thrn I got to mars hydro blurples they are 300 watts actual 132 watts each from wall. So if I added another TS1000 I would have almost 600 watts of true led lighting.

Maybe think about just defoliating the Inward facing leaves. Most people don’t defoliate until way late in the grow anyway I did it fairly early. Otherwise you really don’t need to defoliate at all unless you think a leaf is going to cause problems or if it’s dead or diseased.
I would say just defoliate the center of the plant basically to make sure that there’s air passing through the middle of the plant.

Sweet about the phosphorus thing. I really work hard to get that phosphorus in there with guano and bone meal etc.
Actually the reason I did an aggressive defoliation was not because I thought I was going to get a greater yield from it but because my plants are cramped in so closely I risk powdery mildew and bud rot if I have so much leaf material touching. So actually I don’t necessarily recommend defoliating plants necessarily but if you have a tight space reducing your yield slightly to make sure that you don’t get disease in your grow is probably worth it if you balance those two.
