I had this thread brought to my attention. I thought I was having a problem. I may have been overthinking it. Maybe the plant is just turning colors as some get in the last month before harvest. Im about 4 weeks from chop. Pictures of two plants below growing side by side. Same soil/nutes same age, and both the same strain (Anesia Seeds Slurricane) from same seed pack. Have not seen this coloration in this strain or the crosses used to create it. I dont know if there is a problem or not maybe just a pheno but I have to say I am admiring the colors. The photo doesn't really do it justice.

Molybdenum deficiency can occur. So can copper, iron, zinc and yadda. Just checked 3 brands of nutrients I have at hand. Envy hydroponics dry (copy of Jack's) has moly. So does AN Jungle Juice Micros. But AN Iguana doesn't. Having used it on an entire crop last year in Sunshine 4 and tap water and never seeing a hint of it I always wonder. Even if the color is textbook on shade and pattern. Like I told you I have chased "deficiencies" that ended up genetics. Black cannabis. But the buds are green. Black leaves. Started out purple cool l. Then black margins creeping in until they were black. Blew me away. Alien genetics or something.

I look at your plant and nothing is wrong. Your over analyzing shit and need to chill . Moly is a trace radioactive nutrient and unless you are adding in extra for some reason your totally over reacting.
The amount of molyb your plants need is so minut.

I 100% know you don't have one. Stop chasing recipes, your plant is stressed because you keep asking it whats wrong..

Stop and be nice to it

4 weeks from chop? More like 5-6

Molybdenum is a micronutrient utilized by your plant to synthesize amino acids and is needed in very small quantities. it also helps in nitrite/inorganic phosphorus conversion to usable forms to uptake. Toxicities and deficiencies are rare with deficiencies being the more common of the two.

Deficiencies can be easily misconstrued as a nitrogen issue and since its relationship with nitrogen within your plant it even resembles one. with the plant’s oldest leaves yellowing. Leaves can be spotted with smears of blotches randomly and have orang, red or pink around the edges eventually moving inward.

your plants looks young, and fine. feed at a normal pH range of 6- 6.2 for a while and you will see thing clear up.
