baz do u not think those leaves are showing micro nute def....the patterning on the leaves looks like it is metabolic rather than splash..also weve got leaf deformation and weird pigments, so I think it is a def prob not a nute splash one......
can u explain anymore mate i dont fully understand? also it was only 2 leaves on one of my 6 vegging plants no other plant or leaves were affected, i alwayys thought any deformity or deficiency would be noticable on all parts of the plant not just 2 leaves, i cud be completely wrong but thats just the way i figured it

heres pics of the full plant that i snipped the 2 leaves off of, just to give u a better idea what the bigger picture is with it, as u can see there is no other signs of problems

i aint too bothered about it anyway, ive had worse in the past and got thru it no worries, was just wanting another opinion on what it might be to see if i was right

Ah I've heard good things about their handband? :( what you read about it mate? Was gonna be doing 5 of em and giving a longer veg in the hope it'll improve the yield.

ive heard cali conn have a very poor germination ratio in their seeds, have never used them myself as been warned off them by a number of fellow long term growers

ok man do u wanna be strictly organic or shall we do a quick fix and then carry on with organics....btw they can take a lot more I feed mature veg plant s up to 5 ml/l biobizz grow plus magnecal

i aint to fussed about staying fully organic as long as it dont affect overall taste too much i just use organics as it avoids having to test ph which ive never done on any grow, so a quick fix is fine as i need to flip in 2 weeks to finish on time when i need them. im gonna start using magnecal from the next feed in 2 days time, i will up the grow to 3ml per L as well and see how it goes. so whats ur quick fix idea mate??

you need to pH with organics much more than u do with canna specific nutes...ive done the tests.....mineral nutes deal with with the pH balance y including buffers....eg when I make up canna terra flores the final solution is 6.5...not so with bio bizz whch is why I pH the water first...it remains 6.5 with the addition of the nutes...with my water

^^^^^^^^^^feed em fish mix at 3 ml/l, magnecal at 0.6 m/l and canna mono micronutes at the stated dose, I would use 1ml/l
 
the debate is not if microbes benefit from molasses, that is self evident, what turb is observing in coco is benefits due to active transport, coco has no significant population of microbes to benefit from molasses so the benefit he is claiming and I am supporting with research is direct absorption of carbs thru the roots......aminos too, according t the eggheads
Actually coco has trichoderma.

Again, apart from simple sugars and a B vit or 2 there isn't really anything in molasses that the plant isn't getting from it's regular nutrient regime.

Direct abosrption of simple sugars into the plant to build cells bears no relation to sugar water rushing straight up the trunk and spewing out of the top as glistening trichomes and a stinking terpine profile in "sweeter smelling and stickier buds".
