Hi all, week threeish here and you can see I have some issues with a few of my four plants. My last grow I used sohum living soil for my grow and that provided enough nutrients up throughout first few weeks of flower and then after that some deficiencies arose that I never really did catch up to. This grow I'm using fox farms happy frog soil in 5 gal fabric pots. Transferred from solo cups to 5 gal pots and added some Mykos to root system to assist the transfer. I've made a number of watering and nutrient mistakes up to this point. When the plants were younger I thought they were ready for feeding and I overfed them. They recovered from that but now I'm seeing what appears to me to be a classic symptom of calmag deficiency? I use RO/DI water because my TDS is close to 500 from the tap and there is also chloramine in our city water system. TDS now is 0-2 and my filter is supposed to remove almost all of the chloramine as well. I've been supplementing with a cal mag that I can't find on growdiaries which is odd to me. Could my calmag be bad? Either my calmag is bad, I'm not using enough of it or the problem is something other than a calmag deficiency. It's odd to me that 2 of the 4 plants don't show the same symptoms. Everything other than placement of the plants is the same. Same water/nutrients/tent settings. The calmag I use is General Organics CaMg+ (1-0-0). I've been giving them 1.5 teaspon per gallong which is right in between their light and heavy feeding suggestion. I guess I'll go up to 2 mg/gallon? I put down some foam on the ground in the tent because my floor is cold. Using an IR thermometer, floor is 66 degrees. With foam on top, the foam is 71 degrees now. I was worried the root system was too cold compared to the rest of the plant. I just did this change last night though so it's too early for me to notice if it's made any difference. I also have a small heater outside of the tent that points to the intake. Tent gets up to 81.7 or so during day. Too hot? If I remove the heater, it's around 74-75 in there when the lights were at 58%. Photone app says my light was around 400-450 ppfd. I just turned up the lights to 65% which put the ppfd up to 500 at it's strongest. This increase in light may allow me to ditch the heater for now. VPD so far the entire veg time was .7 albeit with higher temp/humidity. I'd really like to nip this issue in the bud and have healthier plants so any suggestions from any of you wise growers would be great. It just is confusing to me how two of them are healthy and 2 of them aren't with essentially the exact same paramaters?

Does this look like a calmag deficiency? Link to my journal entry for settings/water param/etc for these to see if you can spot the issue? growdiaries.com/diaries/187101-grow-journal-by-mrlahey. Using TDS 0-2 ppm ro/di water with calmag additive.

I'm new to grow dairies but 10 plus years ago when I transitioned to growing indoors, Happy Frog was a goto. With a base of ocean forest when going from 3 gallon to 5 or 7 gallon for the 1st 3 weeks of flower. Going from a Solo to a 5 gal is a huge jump. By going to a 5 gallon you've likley created a overwatering condition, meaning not enough oxygen at the roots when you feed or watered. This is most often the cause of weird deformed growth and you can have a new grower chasing all kinds of early stage deficiencies as well amdsome grow shops willing to sell you anything you think you need. Under development of roots and excess water is bad. Try to not chase the deficiencies. Try not to react by throwing nutes at it. Root cause at this stage is lack of oxygen at the roots. This can throw all kinds of deficiencies that only require you let that soil dry out between waterings. Completely. If you stay in the 5 gallon, expect a slow down or a complete stall in growth for weeks due to this. Likley weeks before the soil drys enough for roots to develop. Suggest you get a cheap moisture probe. Just for reference, not accuracy. So you aren't tempted to water too soon. Be patient, let the soil dry and the weed will correct itself in time if root rot doesn't set in. Or, If these were mine, I'd pull the the cup sized root ball out of the 5gal (save your soil) and put em into a 1 gal hard pot. Mix your happy frog with 20% perlite in advance before the transplant.. Trim all those huge hand sized leaves out. Definitely growing like a heavy indica. It'll grow leaves back fast in a smaller pot with more oxygen at the roots. Water the 1gal until run off and leave for 1 week or until feels really light, water one more time and transplant 3 gallon around 3 days or when feels a little dry/light to lift. Then water just the outside rim of the next pot up. If the stem of a fan leaf points up it has enough water. Even if the leaf itself drops. Dont stress how it looks today. Ive seen solid yellow clones grow pounds of healthy hard nugs after they were brought back to health. All this growth your looking at is going to be old and trimmed off by the time you get to flower anyways. The damaged leaves won't heal. Trim off the sick.. Watch the new growth. Make her healthy for flower. Don't bother reading the ppm of happy frog soil runoff. It'll be in the thousands when new. Its deceiving. Eventually the happy frog becomes imbalanced and required flush and a proper feeding schedule. If your using any calmag, use at 20% . In happy frog, once your plants are taking off, you need almost nothing added to your water for a week per gallon of soil. Except calmag at 20-50% as your soil gets used up and your plant gets bigger.
