White Widow

turbobuzz said:

So I have 4 white widows that popped on 9-22, and I have never grown autos before. The seedlings were given to me. Anyhow, I had the exact same problems with yellow leaves. I did nothing different than any other plants I’ve ever grown, but these yellowed. I think these are heavy feeders, I went from 1/2 strength to full strength nutes, and added cal mag to every feeding, and my yellow leaf problem stopped. Not sure if it was the extra nutes, or mag deficiency. Here are mine today on day 70. Winding it down. Probably chop this weekend, or the next. Not very impressed with the bud density. I won’t be doing autos again.

Hello turbobuzz. I think you are right, mine started appearing in the 4rth week, and i see little rust colored spots on my leaves. It must be a Magnesium issue.
My book says Epson Salts. I do not have any of that. But what I do have is CalMag by Aroura Soul products.
Should I mix in some of that to my plain water.??

I started using 2 tsp of cal mag per gallon. It seemed to really help mine. The yellowing leaves stopped.

Are you sure it was 09.22.20? That's not 70 days. Would it have been 08.22.20?
My plant looks a lot like yours.. The flowers look very much the same, except mine was popped on 09.14.20

Since you added a lot of P and the yellowing happened fast it’s probably 2 things.

N is most easily washed out the soil. So with that feed N got washed out.

Also more P requires more magnesium. If you look at the bottom right leaf the yellow is someone between the veins of the plant.

Id dose Epsom salts at 1tsp per gallon.

Can you use regular Epsom Salts or is there a special Epsom Salts for plants.
Thank You,
