Redish Brown spots, and slight discoloration. Magnesium deficiency? Calcium? Other? Gave them a splash of Calmag, but was it even necessary? OR, should I have just swapped nutes and wait, then correct if not improved? (It was nute day, that's why I ask!)

This is definitely going to be calcium-related, but the thing is most of the time with this it's a lockout and the plant isn't getting it all. Yes giving the plant Cal-Mag when you regularly feed is necessary cannabis plants tend to be very calcium hungry. I noticed your ph level was 5.8, In hydro, calcium is best absorbed by the roots in the 6.2 – 6.5 pH range in hydro, it’s generally recommended to keep the pH between 5.5 – 6.5, but calcium specifically tends to be best absorbed above 6.2, so this could be the cause for the lockout.

Yeah you need to add some calmag. See how it goes and add less or more the next time. Cheers 😊

Flushing don't seem to solve my lockout It's been 6 days since I noticed the problem. first thought it was a deficiency but really is a lockout. I flushed 2 days ago but she keeps getting worse. Am I being impatient? I flushed with tap water pH 6-7 until the runoff was in the same range and haven't fed her for 4 day.

Ph issues part 2 Hi guys! It has been a while after flushing, repotting into bigger pot with fresh medium and feeding her only with water. I bought Sensi cal mag extra and I need your advise if it can be used together with BioBizz nutrients, I could get only this brand in my local store

Nutrient lockout, ph imbalance or nutrient burn?Unfortunately I don't have a ph meter, so my best guess is one or more of these problems: nutrient lockout, ph imbalance or nutrient burn. The first 3 photos are from an Auto Northern Light and the last 2 are from an Auto Jack Herer.
