Do I have an Iron Deficiency, if so How do I increase Iron levels (Already using Calmag)
bigbud1080started grow question 4 years ago
I think I have an iron deficiency. New Growth is appearing yellow.
HYDRO
Rain water - (20ppm)
PPM 750-900 (just upped)
Canna Aqua A+B
Calmag (0.35ml/L)
PH was 6.2 (as there was a calcium deficiency so I raised it slightly)
PH is now 5.8 (I read lower PH is better for Iron Intake

rain water is a bad idea. especially if downwind from any city or industrial area. usually quite acidic and god knows what is in it.
your tap water will likely provide the iron you seek. may even reduce need for cal-mag too. it will reduce need for cal mag in most contexts, i should say.
you may need to dose and acid/base needed to correct pH... or not.. you'll want to re-measure
if it is impossible to avoid, i'd check pH more often. may need more reservoir changs etc etc.

Burnt tips and yellowing leavesAbout two week ago, lower leaves started yellowing, and I saw burn leave tips, so I suspected nutrient burn. I only watered with tap 6.5 pHed water since, but the burnt tips and yellowing are getting worse continuously. At least 3 largest lower leaves died off over the period.

Yellow leaves (a lot of them)The plant is showing a lot of yellow leaves. I think it's a little bit early to speak about a natural loss by flowering, or not?
There are also a lot of yellowish leaves (more yellow than green even): what is the problem?
the red leaves are normal to this strain I think? Thanks!
