Aug 6, noticed a few things this week 1)yellowing around a few of the leaf edges, on the blue dream, and the MKU, and a few mangled leaves..it seems minor, affecting only a few of the fan leaves and buds are forming up so im not too worried, just curious what it is. 2) Stems deep red, I've been told this could possibly be genetics, cold night temps, or root bound. the two showing these signs are likely root bound. 3)Pest check was nil...I thoroughly inspected the entire grow space and found nothing, no signs of pests anywhere. I suspect the two demonstrating these problems are root bound and thus experiencing some nutrient issues at this critical stage..fingers crossed that the problems don't worsen, for now my plan is to add 1/4 tsp/gal Cal Mag to during normal waterings as a top off approach. If the problem worsens, I may flush each with 10 gallons of prepared nutrient solution to reestablish a proper level and flush any excess salts out, hopefully stabilising any potential ph problems in the process. will update in a few days..

Would love to get some insight on whether this is a mag def or something else. see pics, in week 9, I circled a few areas of interest. fed cal mag since day 1, medium is a 60/40 ratio of coco/perlite. should I be feeding more cal mag? Nute scheds in my log are accurate..

Hey you are going way too light on the nutrients. I would increase them to 1 tsp micro, 1/4 tsp grow and 2 tsp of bloom. This puts you under their recommended dosage but should make your plants a lot happier. If you have not flushed them in a while then I would give them a good flush after the first higher dose feeding dries out then you should be able to feed again. Hope this helps. Good luck!

A great community here and I appreciate that. For me feeding can be a bit daunting I've burned up plenty of plants as I'm sure many people have when new to gardening of any sort. I was definitely on the more cautious side of things and definitely needed to be feeding more....I've taken your advice and already seen improvement in the overall health, the buds are looking and smelling beautiful thanks to everyone's input. Thank you GD community.

I completely agree with you Akguy. it would be great to manually list your light(s) to offer more information to the community regarding under/overlighting. FYI I am running 2 x Phlizon Cree Cob series 2000W one overhead at 65cm and the second at 80cm on a 45 degree angle for a bit of slide lighting on the edge without mylar. On another note, I tested the runoff and it was very low...180ppm...so I gave each pot 5 gallons and went with a different nutrient composition ...I have updated it to reflect the change
