Is this a magnesium deficiency? The stems seem red. If so, does Calmag do the trick here?

I see you recently transplanted, there's also some nute burn showing and any plant I've put into those cardboard biodegradable containers hate them. Not sure if you planted them cardboard and all or tried to remove it. If you remove plants from these cardboard container it tears the roots that have grown into them. The combination has likely stressed them out a little. Ease up on the nutes a bit and let them grow.

Is biobiz light mix a soulless medium. If its dirt based and not peat based then your ph isnt correct. If this is a soilless grow then your ok where your ph is at. But if this is dirt grow your ph needs to come up. I grow soiless and explain exactly how to do it in my diaries. Cheers

I’ve been using Biobizz AllMix and I fed her Advanced Nutrients Sensi Grow. Even tough flushed her twice, it has not stopped yet. Burned leaves symptom continues. Seems like it’s going worse.

Stem on plant appears to be narrow at the bottom growing beefier up higher The stem on this plant appears to be narrow at the bottom growing beefier up higher. Any ideas on strengthening it up or will this hurt me further along?😲 I think this plant got knocked over once so perhaps thats it, just hope it doesn't choke the plant further along. Ideas?

Purple stems on some seedlings?Why would the plants on that edge of the tray have purple stems? Nutrient deficiency? I noticed the one I checked with a purple stem had more roots showing from the rockwool cube than any others... think they're trying harder to get to the juice cause they got shorted?

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!

Why are the branches turning purple?What is causing my plant stems to start to turn purple? They feel stiff and dry, could it be low humidity or am I not watering enough or to much? I water 1L/plant ever other day. PH 6.3-6.5. Should I be concerned?
