no the only thing they got was some epsom salt which I only do like twice during a whole grow and yes it does have slow release fertilizer here's a pic of my last two plants I'm pretty sure the big fat leafed one is going to be a female pic 1 and the other plant pic 2 is my oldest plant im sure it's ph is off but it's starting to do better and recovering from being topped.

Yea that soil is gonna cause some issues cause cannabis kinda likes dry soil jus not too dry.. Your probably goin thru low aeration which can probably cause over watering signs in the plant.. She's def lookin better tho.. Good luck man!

yeah I'm careful with my watering I always let my soil dry out before I water again. Here's a pic of my fat leafed plant the leafs were droopy the other day because she was thirsty now she's or he is happy hopefully it will be a female.

ok update here's a pic from yesterday white hairs popped out of one of the preflowers so it's confirmed my plant is a beautiful skunky smelling female. And the second pic is of one of her bottom leaves what's going on here this happened over a couple of days do I need to add some flowering nutes or something?.

ok thanks I just picked up some ph down and a test kit by general hydroponics I think it might be ph locking out nutrients if not then it's back to the hydro for some cal-mag Because I have nothing for calcium lol.

I just feed it some epsom salt like three weeks ago so it's not mag forsure or calcium because the soil has plenty I don't have filtered water but I have a brita water bottle so I could filter some myself I'm 100 percent that I'm having ph issues I gave it a light foliar feeding with some 15-30-15 with macro nutrients yesterday once i get the ph issue fixing she should bloom really good been stinking up my room every since she hit the veg stage so flowering should smell extra skunky lol.Yea perfect timing cause I think you have to stop using calmag early flower.. hope all goes well.. happy growing

U might have to lightly flush some of those nutes out to adjust ur ph
But its cool cause it's better to cleanse your soil when u switch cycles.. Every thing will work out fine bro.. Happy New Years

she looks good man almost done to happy growing to you. I ph tested the tap water I've been using and it wasn't quite 8 but close so I added some ph down to my watering jug and flushed my plant with my ph balanced water and trimmed off the fan leaves that got used up by the nute lock out and I cleaned up the bottom of the plant for better air flow.
