It means you can feed a little bit more with nutrients. let's try to raise up with 200 ppm to see if it goes to be green. good luck.

Phosphorus? Potassium? CalMag? What is going on here?
So in week 8 after flushing with EC 0.4 and giving extra PK 13/14 afterwards (EC 1.9) there are still problems occurring. I personally think it’s a deficiency of potassium and phosphorus. Can anybody give me some advice or tell me how to fix it? Thanks!

Is this normal?
Hey guys and gals, it's my first time growing so I just want to make sure this is a normal looking Seedling. It sprouted about 2 days ago and is smaller than the rest of my seedlings. Maybe genetics? What's your opinion?

Spots on leafs, and lime green tops
I am beginning to see leaf damage again, so i would like to ask if you guys could point me in the direction of my problem. I suspect either light damage, or ph issues building up over time. It started before i gave the first flower nutes, tops seem deeper green since that though

Natural or Problem?
Is this natural yellowing or is there a problem? pH to 6.3 and runoff is 5.7. The stem is awfully purple, watering/feeding is where I struggle. 1st pic - 4/21 and 2nd pic - today(4/24). Seems to have escalated over the last few days. Do-si-do auto about 10 weeks.

Purple stem
I read that purple stems can be due to many things... but I’m not sure what this could be - is it a nutrient issue? pH? “Tan”? Genetics?

No Color Loss - Week 7 Flower?
Sup Gromies! Got a quickie for yall. Usually around week 5 of flowing the plants tend to fade in color as the buds use up the nutes from the leaves. Well this AMS AK-47 XTRM is holding its color and tomorrow is the start of week 7! The strain only has an 8 week flower. Thoughts?
