Hi, I am growing a Bluberry by DP which are apparently hard to grow. I live in a soft water area so add 0.5ml CALMAG every feed when on normal nutes. I notice the new leaves are are reveling very pale. Could this be due to my soft water and should I add CALMAG yet? Thanks.
Hi @DankGenes! New growth being paler than old leaves is totally normal. If the problem remains and/or spread onto older leaves, then you're having a Sulfur or Nitrogen deficiency. Hope this will help, keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊

Hello ! Pale leaves = Nitrogen deficiency. Is your so a light or All mix ? If your water is soft then you should use Cal Mag but is your water Soft or very stop as the Cal Mag amount will no be the same in each situations and an EC meter will help you to determine this + a Ph meter will help you to have a better controle one your feeding. Hope it will help you 😁👍
@OutForReal, I am using canna plus soil. Should be rich enough. I maybe haven't blended it down enough though and have just re potted in to their final medium.
Thanks for your help my good man.
At this age I’d suspect you are doing too much with regards to nutes and cal mag. The soil should have enough nutrients in it to support the plant for at least 3-4 weeks by itself. I’d recommend trying water only for a couple of weeks. Good luck! 👍
