06/01/21 After 12 weeks of veg (which is really the equivalent of about 6 weeks because of all the setbacks I had), I finally flipped over to 12/12 today. Time to see what these ladies are made of! 😄
06/04/21 (Day F4) - plants are showing pistils already. Starting flower strong, except I have some yellowing on lower leaves between the veins, especially on the back-left plant. I'm fairly confident this is a magnesium deficiency so I'm grabbing some Cal-Mag tomorrow and will see if that curtails the issue.
06/05/21 (Day F5) - Fed all plants some Cal-Mag, especially the back left. Will monitor closely and see if it clears the issue up.
06/06/21 (Day F6) - Yellowing looks slightly worse today, even after feeding Cal-Mag yesterday. I still believe this is an Mg def. and hoping it gets better tomorrow. There's always some delay so I'm not freaking out yet. I'm told Mg def. takes a few days to stop progressing after correcting. The Cal-Mag I fed yesterday was a light dose anyway, and I'll likely repeat with more in another couple days, as this is the first time I've used Cal-Mag all cycle. As usual, my strategy is to not panic and over-correct 😎
06/07/21 (Day F7) - Confirmed this is a Mg deficiency with more research, and the help of a couple answers to my question here on GrowDiaries - thanks! Yellowing spread seems to have slowed. Gave them another touch of Cal-Mag today. Will continue to wait and see.
Don't think they should be deficient in anything yet, they're in new Ocean Forest soil and only on day 11 of veg, no way they used up what's in the soil yet.
More details in my grow diary comment.
This is damage caused by the leaves hitting either the edge of the pot or the soil surface when the fan blows on them and generally at night when the leaves are lowered. Nothing much to be concerned over.
Filling your pots right up to the top would give more room for root growth.
Hope this helps,..............

I agree, looks like mag. Be careful when removing leaves as if the deficiency is not corrected she will start taking nutrients from another leaf. Causing more damage to the plant. I'd leave them on for a a little longer in future. You can cut the dead bits off without issue, if you like.
Hope this helps 🙂
@SegaYGriega, aw thank you! They've come a long way since I fried and stunted them in the early weeks while figuring out the LED light strength and proper distance 😄 now they're cruising 😎
Looking good and progressing very nicely !! Good luck with the grow !
