I’ve recently started my second try after failing my first cycle,
Everything was going great until now,
Recently the leaves of my plant are gettin worse and worse, at first I thought it was ph problems but it doesn’t seem like it image.jpg

even though it seems to be in the correct ph range for soil the leaves are dyingimage.jpg

could it be mg deficiency? If so, what should I do?

You might be right about the magnesium deficiency.

Most folks here say to use cal-mag. I don't have any experience with that. I grow organically and my soil is chock full of calcium, so I would dissove some Epsom salt in my water.

I usually mix a bit of Epsom into my potting soil (homemade) because, though our soil is full of calcium, it is light on magnesium.

Others might have better advice.

what kind of soil are you in? What are you feeding? Environment?

Looks like mag deficiency to me. Try a foliage spray using epsom salt (magnesium sulfate) 1tsp per gal of water. Spray it down good just before lights off. Not sure what your soil is, but using a good recommended soil can make a huge difference. Then just watch you water (amount & ph) and you should be golden until you need to feed. Some of the big box store potting soils are really crappy for cannabis and you'll have more problems than success.

Need more details. What lights? Temps? Humidity? Planting medium? Nutrients?

It does look like a Mg deficiency but it important to determine if it's due to the medium lacking the nutrient or if something is preventing the plant from accessing it

Id give that lady some sort of all purpose top dressing amendment. You could give her synthetics if you want quicker action.

First off, don’t listen to these people without diagnosing the problem. They’re going to end up telling you something that will ultimately kill your plant.

Lemme ask this before I give advice, what soil are you using? How often are you watering and what kind of water are you using? What is your nutrient lineup? How old is this plant? Do you have air circulation? If these people aren’t asking any questions like This, you’re not going to get good advice. Answer those and I’ll see what we can come up with!
