Stalk and Petiole coloring
InstantT33started grow question 5y ago
The majority of my BB’s stalk and petioles are a bluish color. Toward the base of the stalk there’s an area that looks like it’s been skinned, or burnt. Any ideas?

ensure substrate pH is correct. possibly a trace element symptom, but those are rare in soil. (rust colored stalk)
Blueish petiolse possibly P-def. But, could also be related to pH
6.8-ish is best in soil. Slightly acidic is the goal. Do this first... then move on to possibly changing nutrients.. . if this is off.. give it a week to see how it reacts to change. Nosedive should not be ignored, but be patient. Takes time for changes to impact plant.
watering habits? stick to a wet-dry cycle. allow 1" to dry before irrigating or fertilizing.
Try not to leave standing water on the leaves. You'll grow mildew or worse.

Deficiencies? Brown spots, yellowing and purple stemsWhat is this deficiency or maybe toxicity and whats the solution? She is fed with biobizz chart instructions but with every other watering. She is big so I'm guessing I should water with nutes every time? She showed this first week into flowering.

I think I have nut issues?OK here's today's update, 3/9/22. They are all doing great, they're all standing proud now! I think they needed to dry out a little, more light and needed the extra nuts. What do any of you guys think could've caused these symptoms that my girls are/have shown?

Calcium Deficiency???So this is a Calcium Deficiency right? Noticing on top leaves. Not bad yet but want to stop it before it starts as this grow has been my best so far. I have been using CalMag every water but I did lower the dose for a few days as I was told I was using too much for flower.
