@Fitzwell, it's my hope that some day my garden and bud shots alone will be enough to draw the crowds! 😋

hey there you have calcium deficiency, add calmag including as a spray and the plants should recover within ten days !

@CRiSPrGrow, Cheers! I"m just hoping these ladies can stick it out at least another week or so. I don't see "EM-2" recovering too well but hopefully she makes it through! ...and ya, been meaning to jump on the chat and say hello. 😋

@CRiSPrGrow, Thanks! Wasn't sure if it was Cal or P deficiency. I've increased both my CalMag and phosphorus so hope things start looking better before final week of flush. Thanks again for the input!

Hi @VanCplGrows! Nice ladies in there 😍 I'm thinking more of a Phosphorous deficiency, considering you're giving loads of nutrients, I think your plants had enough Calcium and Magnesium. My bet is that you're having salts buildup in your medium, because of an intense feeding schedule and probably a lack of runoff, your rootmass is flooded with old nutrients, and is unable to manage nutrients intakes anymore (lockout leading to deficiencies). In this situation I would flush the medium with tap water buffered at pH 6.2, then help the medium to dry by putting a small fan blowing a continuous breeze on the container's surface. Once almost dry, see how this goes, and probably give it a good meal with Phosphorous and Potassium. Affected leaves won't recover but the new ones should be healthy. Hope this will help, keep us updated and happy growing! 👊

Hey @Stick, thanks for the message. Ya, i've sort of started focusing more on the phosphorous rather than Cal-Mag. My feeding schedule for most of the grow has actually been pretty light. I usually feed 2-3 times per week and only with 30% of the recommended dose. It's only been this past week that i've increased the nutrients. When feeding, i typically only water just until run off starts. When watering with plain pH'd tap water, i tend to water fairly heavily and the run off comes through relatively clear. I've tried to maintain the idea that under-feeding is better than over-feeding but since i don't have a proper EC meter, only a pH meter, it's hard to truly know what's coming out. I figure this will probably be my last week of feeding, then will do a 1 week flush, so not a ton of time for me to turn things around but i'll keep your advice in mind to try and avoid any future problems. Much appreciated! 👍
