Magnesium deficiency?
Eagersstarted grow question 6y ago
Can anybody help with the yellowing between the leaves? Is this a magnesium deficiency? The leaves are still pointing upright but do have slight yellow/brown tips. Have recently transplanted into coco with an EC of 0.56. Ph was 5.8 and runoff was 5.7 when last fed. Any ideas?

The plant is too much little to present already that deficiency, I guess it is a signal of overfeeding, I would go with reducing that...;-)
Only soft water every 3 days for a couple of weeks. Good luck and enjoy your plant.

Seedling getting too much light?Is my 6cm tall seedling getting too much light? I downloaded a luxmeter app and for front/back cameras, it reads 4000-6000 lux. I'm worried about the light green veins. Is this normal? First grow so super unsure what everything is supposed to look like. Light is 18cm from plant.Week 1

Please help identify the cause, interveinal chlorosis since 2 weeks old, no necrosis so far. These two plants are 26 days old. Do they look stunned?Is this magnesium def since it's going from the bottom? Is it possible the first signs started to show when they were just 2 weeks old? Or is this iron? Or is it smth else? Calmag given two days ago. Pistils show already. I water with ph6.2 but no runoff yet to know the soil ph.Leaves. Veins - yellow between

Yellow spots between veinsIn several weeks my plant has yellow spots between veins, but it starts from the top to the bottom of the plant: old leaves seems fine when the new ones are spotted.I thought it is Mg deficiency, fed my plant foliar with epsom salt, added CalMag to the feeding, but no luck. WTF?Week 6

intervenal discoloration, organic growGave her enzimes last week, maybe they were too much or some nutrient lock out due to a somewhat excessive fertilization (too much vermicompost)
Think I will go on with plain water to the end I think maybe the problem will sort out itself or wont degenerate too much. Any advice?4y ago

Update on previous deficiency questionUpdate on previous deficiency question
The leaves got worse, its still only a few so not too bad. After doing some research i think it could be a Manganese, magnesium and/or Sulphur shortage.
I fed some liquid calmag a day ago. I plan to use epsom salt if there is no change6y ago

Stunted leavesOne of my plants is having a hard time - it's technically growing as fast as the others but it's leaves are half the size, slight discolouration and cupping. I suspect Mg, PH or overwatering may be the issue. All variables for each plant are exactly the same.Week 4
