Plant issue - possibly two problems

Okay, here goes. I have two plants. One is doing fine, but the other is having a couple of issues. The lower leaves look like they are over watered (droopy and curling), but the upper leaves look fine in that regard, but still have an issue.

The upper leaves are "redding" in the stems now. I know there is a deficiency in here somewhere, but with the multiple symptoms, I am not sure what is happening.

For the record, soil is original FF OF, PH is 6.0-6.5 at run off. Light organic nutes added, but very sparingly. My guess is the plant has used up all available of something it needs.

The first picture is the overall plant. Number 2 is the lower leaf top. Number 3 is underside of upper leaves. Number 4 is the same as #3, but from the top.

Appreciate any help given!

I am watering every third day. The pots get a lot lighter by day two, but the soil is still moist below the surface until day 3.

Nutes: I am using 1/2 dose of CNS-17 Bloom every other watering. I add 32 ounces of nute water and then 32 oz of clear water. Water (nute and clear) is allowed to drain free of the pot.

I had a magnesium deficiency a while back and added some Cal-Mag. That was a few weeks ago.

Oh, and and as an aside, the pictured plant is 8 days into flower.

think it might be a little normal i have two plants both at the same stage of flower and some of the leaves are curled up like that, there is no yellowing of any sort and i water every three days like you. Maybe we are not watering enough maybe every two days would be better

Thanks for that!

I am going to try every two days and see what happens. My pots have good drainage so I don't think I will drown them. If they start showing signs of over-watering I can always add the extra day in.

I will keep you posted as to how it works for me...
