This week 2 out of the 3 plants went into flower. My 10" runt in a 3 gallon pot when into flower 1st Followed by a 15" in a 5 gallon pot. None of the 3 plants appear to have any deficiencies this week which I am thankful for. I have changed up the feeding regiment for the 2 that went into flower. They are now at 1 ml of cal mag and 6 ml of bloom. The 3rd plant has not went into flower yet however it looks like it could be any day. It will receive 1 ml of Cal mag 4 ml of micro and 6 ml of bloom. Lastly all 3 girls received a pretty hefty haircut this week. I want to allow as much light as possible to reach the Bud sites.
Dude I noticed you have a similar "white patchiness" in some of the leaves at week 3 that mine have in most all of the plants, but mostly in 1. I self-diagnosed it as TMV (Tobacco Mosaic Virus) and was convinced that it was that. However, since then, you're the 4th person with Seedsman Auto NL seeds that also exhibit this characteristic, but for yours it seems that it has mostly disappeared as it approached flowering. I also am in the 1st week of flower for most of my NL Autos from Seedsman (8 plants) and am showing those brown spots that I assumed was a calcium deficiency.
Also, some of the lower leaves on many of the plants with the brown spots are yellowing and eventually crisping and dying. I am currently using 1/4th the recommended dosage of nutes out of fear of burning them. It's weird because the same plants that I assume are deficient and showing the brown spots and yellowing leaves at the bottom also have a slight burn on the tips of the leaves. I am growing in a 3:3:3 mix of compost, coir, and perlite however. Not sure how advanced of a grower you are, but do you have any advice?
@SourDeez, sorry for the delay man, I do not use this app very often. I will say that I was growing in coco and watering with tap water. I was also using cal mag. Turns out tap water has calcium in it and by using both cal mag and tap water I had created a toxicity. I seem to remember dropping the cal mag all together but later found this lead to a magnesium deficiency so now I use no cal mag but periodically add Epsom salt to my feeds. 1 tbsp per gallon every 3 weeks or so. Hope that helps.
Thank you for keeping this updated and in such detail! I am researching for my first grow and stuff like this has been really informative for me so far.
