What sort of nutrients are you using and what dosage?
dynagrow schedule cuts the grow part of their fert and use only bloom from week one of flowering,i also use protekt and calmag and also give blackstrap molasses,never had a problem with their schedule before but it is first time i’m growing this blueberry widow.anyway their bloom is 3-12-6 so there is some N

for dosage i like to alternate,for example i only give full bloom ferts (10ml per gallon),next watering calmag 5 ml per gallon,next watering i mix protekt with blackstrap molasses,5ml per gallon protekt and 5ml per gallon of molasses.

P.S since i use reverse osmosis water i think i should increase calmag?any tought on that?thanks

Call me strange, but even when growing in soil I always give full nutes every feeding.
Never really understood why you would want to offer them a drink but nothing to eat, but that's just me.

800ppm "should" be plenty.

Here we go guys,i have new pictures,the fenomena is definately spreading...only on the lower fan leaves and only on one plant,it is already 2 weeks that i stopped giving grow ferts,dynagrow schedule cuts the grow part of their fert and use only bloom from week one of flowering,i also use protekt and calmag and also give blackstrap molasses,never had a problem with their schedule before but it is first time i’m growing this blueberry widow.anyway their bloom is 3-12-6 so there is some N.should i give some extra N?

what you guys think of the overall growth?
I have defoliated them 10 days ago,filled up a 10QT bucket and now it feels like i need to defoliate again?
DON'T feed more....
Watch the ingoing pH!

YOUR P IS TOO HIGH! The P should be at 6 also! Cannabis does NOT need high P! Boosters do more damage then help.
You will be getting yellowing leaves from the P soon..

I’ve watered yesterday with only molasses and ph 6.7,the soil is a little acidic and i think cal or mag is locking out!the ferts bottle are almost gone...i’m looking to buy a new line,dynagrow is not the best.what ferts do you use?should i go all organic?

I run mostly all hand built organic super soils. I make A veg and bloom soil's. I started to do specific bloom soils for how some strains run. As far as N or Mg hogs, etc, etc.

Now then, I do still play with synthetic runs.
I prefer Botanicare KIND line and run as the plants need.. Generally light veg feeding - as needed as I up pot as needed and that is a 30 day no using nutrient, soil.
As for bloom. I don't follow the charting there either.
I run 5 points extra N at the first and third feedings.
I run 2 home made supplements. These are K and Mg sulfate mix at specific ratio's. Look in the do it yourself section in this thread, I have them listed.
I stop the use of those at 4-6 weeks, depending on how the strain runs time wise (Nothing ever runs as a breeder say's. Add 2 weeks minimum - some longer)
Then it shifts to 10ml of Base and Bloom, per gallon.. The NPK value is about 4-6-6 as I don't actually measure it with vary careful accuracy.

With synthetic's I keep the pH at 6.5 in veg and 6.7 -6.8 in bloom.

Temps are set to 70 deg F and allowed to swing 5 more higher - before the cooling kicks in.
RH is run at 50% and overrides to 55 before that kicks in.

Lighting is custom built (better) "copies" of HLG 550 V2's. My lights have the H version of diode over the B's of the HLG and cost $300 less.
These were chosen over HID's and a real HLG 550 V2 in a 2 run side by side.

Anything else?

Hello i was using dynagrow but last feed switched to fox farm since dynagrow is all gone.ph is still pretty low,last watering was still at 6.2,been watering with ph 6.7. What ph water should i use to make the ph go up?spotting is getting worst on one plant,the other plant is starting to but much less.the 2 pineapple kush are perfectly fine

WRONG! Don't do this. Like the guy above said. Run off is basically meaningless - it's the run off's pH! NOT the soil or medium's pH!

I was referring to PPM which would let you know how much of your solution was being absorbed by your plants vs what's left over.

Look again at your plant. The leaves your worried about - are not reflecting the "right now" of your issue. Those leaves are now grown over by plenty of newer growth that does not show the issue.

Therefor, the issue is likely over, and the plant has corrected it, and grown on.

I do suspect a slight pH issue back then..... Gone now.

Continue as you are and watch for problems on newer and newest growth.

Look under leaves for pests. Hard to tell from those pics but I would look to be sure...

You might bump the N up a tic - just once - give them 3 whole points more N ONCE and return to normal feeding.
Keep all ingoing to a pH of 4.5 in Veg and 4.7 - 4.8 in bloom.
