2.4? Wow. To be honest I don't know what to advise. I've switched to AN Jungle Juice Micros and Bloom. No Grow. Lucas formula. No more leafy plants, no nitrogen burn. Cal mag every third feeding.

I guess, I've figured out what's happening... the water PH and soil PH are both above 7 
Watered with plain water and amended PH w/o any nutes - drainage water had a better PH... hope I didn't overwatered
And top leaves kinda getting lighter (yellowish) between veins which could be light or magnesium issue...

Ph is perfect for soi my friend dont need to ph anything ur soil buffer the ph if using ph up and down ur playing with npk ratio this is a soil make a compost tea !
Ur using organic nute. you need microbe,fungi life in ur organic soil a good compost tea will do so

I'm a bit worried about top leaves getting brighter kinda yellowish... shall I move light up?..
If it would be mag. deficiency than bottom leaves should have been affected.

Not much info on the bottle though...
Upper leaves are getting brighter daily
Since soil had EC 2.4 itself, I doubt it's a lack of nutes...
Roots issue? No idea
Bottle:
Nitrogen 1,9%
Ammonium nitrogen 0,48%
Nitrate 1,5%
Phosphorus 6,9%
Potassium 4,1%

Not enough nitrogen to much pk were the calcium magnesium .... iron .boron etc nitrogen keep the leaf green
My npk in veg
9-8-13
After mix in water .nutrient bond and this what left
10-3-11
Npk in flow
10-12-21
After mix
12-4-17
To much pk in ur mix not enought n and pk lock nutrient .

Trying to figure things out... leaves getting yellowish daily
I hope it's the PH issue since it's pretty easy to overcome.
Changed the light schedule since it's getting colder - lights will be on during the nights to avoid big temp. fluctuations

Watered with 3.5 litres instead of 2 litres as before.
With amended PH.
Got a runoff (wasn't any with 2 litres before) and tested PH - around 6.5 now.
Won't water for the next 72 hours (or until the pot is too light)
Buds are gaining weight, but leaves dont get better, maybe even worse...
I'm a bit afraid to overwater.
Temps got better with new light schedule

With soil, your problem is seldom pH. The root can adjust the pH of the soil next to it by as much as 3 points by kicking off H or oH molecules as needed.
Listen to Swedsteven about the nutes... You are at a delicate stage now of the flowering.... what happens in these first weeks dictates the outcome.

Adjust to and maintain a steady pH of 6.5 for best results, good luck!I guess, I've figured out what's happening... the water PH and soil PH are both above 7

It seems like new growth suffers just the same way... I still got at least 3 weeks in front of me (maybe more).
Probably I shall water more heavily next time to cleanse the soil a bit...
And with the last watering I amended PH and added FishMix (5-1-4) to add nitrogen.
I've also mixed it and spray on the foliage, is that a good idea during flowering though?..
TBH seems this grow goes wrong

Within one day many bud hair became dark... what could does that mean please??
And buds stopped their growth i think, they're pretty small
Waited for 4 days to dry out and watered yesterday with PHed water (3.5 l) - with 2 ml per litre of Bloom (P+K) and Fish mix (N+K)

I don't understand... I measure PH in and out - last watering both were good.
This time the out PH is too high again...
How could it possibly be since the In was PHed properly

What soil are you using and have you calibrated your pH meter recently? (cuz I suspect the pH you think you're using is not what it actually is, jmo)
You can put a tablespoon of Epsom salts in a gallon of water and spray those leaves because they need magnesium but you've got to figure out what you're screwing up with your pH that's causing the issues in the first place?
I use only Apera meters, they start about $45 on Amazon, they're the best investment I've made, and I suspect proper pH would end your issues as well, Best of luck!
