Week 7
Day 43 (25/09/2020):
I watered all the girls today and increased their nutrients again. So now they are getting 2.5ml of BioGrow and I have kept the CalMag the same at 1ml (for 1.5L). I will see whether it will need to be increased if the damage on the leaves starts to get worse.
Day 44 (26/09/2020):
The girls look happy again today after the nutrients but it looks like more leaves are getting this brown/silverish damage on their leaves and from what I understand it is from a calcium deficiency (based on pictures I tried to compare to online). So I will keep increasing the CalMag in their feed until it looks like the defiency is slowing down.
Day 45 (27/09/2020):
The girls look really bad today 😟 I really want to water them so they can get more nutrients but the soil is still moist so I don't want to overwater them at the same time. The silver/brown leaves are getting worse and they are spreading to leaves that are higher up which is definitely not good. I will be doubling the CalMag so it can at least slow down and I can judge from there how much more they need. Hopefully this doesn't fuck them up too much 😔
Day 46 (28/09/2020):
Today I watered the girls and increased the nutrients once again. I gave them 3ml of BioGrow (2x the recommended) and 2ml of CalMag. The brown/silver damage on the leaves is definitely becoming worse so I am hoping that it will slow down after increase of CalMag and hopefully it's not something else.
Day 47 (29/09/2020):
Today I sprayed the girls with the weekly neem oil in the morning before lights out. All the girls in the tent still looked a bit sad when I sprayed them but after the lights came back on they looked really happy again. So they are definitely not getting enough nutrients but I still need to be careful and I will keep adding a little bit more of BioGrow and stop when I see that they can go from one feeding to the next without "wilting" or looking sad. I think they are just quite big and starting to need more nutrients to feed the whole plant. I will also keep increasing the CalMag and keep an eye on the spread of the leaf damage from the deficiency.
Day 48 (30/09/2020):
Not that many updates today, just more yellowing of some lower leaves and also the brown spots are definitely not slowing down and the ends of leaves are even getting crispy which I have no idea why. Will have to increase the CalMag at next feeding for sure.
Day 49 (01/10/2020):
I wanted to water the girls today but their soil was still moist for some reason which is a bit weird but I would rather water them tomorrow than overwater, although the leaves do look like they need it. Hopefully they can hold out fine until tomorrow and I will increase their nutrients a bit as well.

@Sweet_Seeds,
Hey, thanks for the message!
The diaries are 2 weeks out of date at the moment but in real time I switched them to 12/12 yesterday! Will update the diaries in the next few days. We are moving houses atm so didn't want to damage them while they are in flower, which is why we kept them in veg for so long.
Can't wait for them to start flowering!
What deficiency are you troubleshooting for? Have you tried lowering your PH to about 6.2? Also, you should make sure your pots are drying out completely between waterings and maybe get some air going across the soil. Looks good overall, happy growing 🙏🏻🌱
Hey @sparxxx007, the diaries are a bit out of date and I measured the pH today and it has actually been dropping over the past few weeks (5.2 now) so I am actually going to be increasing it to about 6.2 as you've said. I think the issue is a mixture of a nitrogen and calcium deficiency so I have been increasing the nutrients and then realised that the pH was off so the nutrients were not being absorbed properly. Bought pH+ to increase it so will see how it goes! In terms of the soil, it gets very dry between watering because it is an AirPot so no problems there I think.
Thanks for the suggestions!
