This week didn't go as well as I had planned. Day 29 I did some LST. I started to see some pistils growing. I also noticed something was wrong with a couple leaves. Day 30 I gave her some compost tea in hope that it will fix the problem arising with her leaves. She is staying very short. Day 31 I finished my banana tea. It was 3 banana peels in a Mason jar topped up with water. Seal it and let it sit for 7 days or so. Make sure to burp it once a day. I didn't give her any of it on this day as she was still wet from the compost tea the day before. Day 32 things were not looking better. In fact they were getting worst by the day. I couldn't put my thumb on exactly what she is going through. What kind of deficiency is happening? Day 33 I gave her the banana tea. It's a concentrate so you want to mix it 1 cup of tea to 1 gallon of water. I had hoped this would help bounce her back. Plus she was in her first week of flowering so I thought a bit of Potassium and Phosphorus would be good. Day 35 I finally figured out what she is suffering from. I messed up. I gave her a Calcium tea with the eggshells last week and that has caused a Calcium toxicity. Not to mention the banana tea also has a good amount of Calcium. This toxicity has locked out the micronutrient Boron. It is rare for a cannabis plant to have a Boron deficiency so it was hard for me to diagnose her problem at first. The new growth yellowing and being disfigured. The necrosis that is happening on the new fan leaves and not the older ones. The slowed growth right after giving her the eggshell tea. All these were signs that she was telling me something wasn't right but having never had a Boron deficiency happen before I couldn't tell what was wrong. Final thought: I am not sure if she will bounce back from this. I plan on flushing her then starting over by giving her a compost tea again to put those microorganisms, fungi and bacteria back in the soil. If we even make it to harvest I will be surprised. Fingers crossed🤞.
