ok then back to calcium.

have you been feeding anything with calcium/mag? or just your soil mixture youve been running on?

probably doesnt have enough calcium needed. Im dosing 5ml of calmag every watering and mine are showing deff so that means i need even more. So tapwater i dont think is going to have enough for you.

Any more close up pics would help. first pic kidna shows more yellow then gold/silver or copping spotting. Could be iron/sulfer. its a micronute of some sort you are defficient with. That top growth looks very light green too and odd shapped

in your 2nd pic i see some super purple stems as well on thoes fans. dont think that is good either. You may be needing more K now especially since you are going into bloom.

I was gonna do the organic thing then ended up getting Botanicare products and its really making a difference.

Thanks for the help...I bought some cal mag. I will use this next watering to see if it helps. On the bright side I still have a couple good looking ones. image.jpgimage.jpg image.jpg Different strand. The ones we have bee talking about are La Con. This one is jack herer.

Cal mag is no good to use. Never use those bottles . For one, they're not organic. All the nutrient companies lie. If it's in a bottle, it's not organic. 2 too much mag will lock out cal and too much cal will lock out mag and potassium. The crab meal, oyster shell flour, neem, and rock dust have plenty of cal and mag. and Kelp has calcium too.

I'm brewing a tea with crab meal as week speak. I was going to use this as quick solution to in the mean time in order to give the plant what it needs before it dies. Even if it kills of beneficial microbes, the tea should repopulate those right?

yes. I suggest doing a seed sprout enzyme tea or water with diluted coconut water too. The enzymes will break down everything. There may be unwanted residual chems / synths left. Plus help the plant metabolize what it up took. Companion crops such as clover, barley grass, and bahia grass help with that too. Phytoremediatlion. They will help facilitate microbes as well. Bacteria, Fungi, mychorrizzae.

Now that I think about it, I remember you saying something like that a couple weeks ago about cal mag, but in the state of panic I was in over my dying plant, I completely forgot.
